The Biggest Risk in Commodity Trading: Compliance

Energy and commodity trading is complex (consider both its physical and financial nature), and so are the rules and regulations surrounding it. Multiple regulators, jurisdictions and standards can apply to a single trade and much is left to the judgement of the actors. But the downsides to getting it wrong just once are enormous for organisations and individuals. In this episode we address compliance in the commodities world with Frank Hayden. What it is, what it means and how digitisation is changing how organisations, and regulators, manage it. Frank is VP Compliance at Calpine, a member of CFTC’s Market Risk Advisory Committee and Chair of the Energy Compliance Discussion Group with over 60 compliance professionals as members.
