2 Commodity XL isk Management Overview THE BUSINESS EQUIEMENT FO MANAGING ENTEPISE ISK Business conditions in the energy and commodities trading area will continue to be defined by sharp price volatility, increasingly risky counterparty credit and greater regulatory oversight. Industry surveys show that many companies are still attempting to manage operations and risk with disparate systems and spreadsheets. This creates information silos across the business and greater opportunity for human error. Additionally, disparate systems decrease the ability to extract meaningful data for proactive decision-making and minimize the ability to introduce automated controls and work flow. In today s challenging environment, complete transparency and control across the enterprise requires that all areas of exposure market risk, operational risk, counterparty credit risk and regulatory risk be tightly integrated.
