By leveraging Endur technology effectively, you can expedite the realization of returns, making it a valuable and strategic IT asset for firms in the industry.

When it comes to making investment decisions in Endur, most clients tend to prioritize the below questions: 

Comprehensive Solutions for Enhanced Data Management and Reporting Efficiency

We’ve developed a comprehensive solution to address identified issues. Our system effortlessly imports real-time prices, rectifies missing or incorrect data, and issues real-time alerts for proactive problem-solving. Prioritizing data integrity, centralized management, transparency, and compliance; it significantly improves business performance and guarantees accurate valuations.

Expanding into new geographies and markets requires assessing the unique requirements of each market. With our data accelerators and integrated Endur’s standard ICE, CME, and exchange connectors, you can quickly establish new business portfolios within the Endur system, facilitating seamless operations in diverse regions and markets.

Managing operations across multiple geographies can be a costly endeavor for companies. By utilizing independent end of Days processes, flexible processing rules, and geographic system partitioning, you can streamline operations and effectively manage activities in different regions. Additionally, the Trading Locations configuration allows for expanded trading capabilities across users, desks, and business units.

With limited inventory visibility businesses cannot effectively manage margins and positions. By utilizing features of Endur’s “Midstream Processing” you can optimize the forecasting of product volumes and improve agreement and custody contract management at processing plants, fractionators, and refineries, minimizing inefficiencies in your operations.

Ensure Market Success with Efficient Trading & Enhanced Inventory Management

Credit valuations can be very complex and take a long time to run in ETRM systems. Pricing Data errors and time to rerun the valuations can lead to scenarios that put your commodity operations at risk, especially in a high liquidity and high-frequency commodity market. Leveraging Connex, Trade Process Management, and deal scripts within Endur in the right way it can allow you to get a real time view of credit, deal with complex credit adjustments for emissions, and quick reconciliation between back-office operations and collateral/credit limit management. 

 To reduce market risk in the early stages, you can make better scheduling decisions by using Endur’s advanced pricing models that consider different options for locations, timings, and cargoes. These models when configured optimally, also consider how prices of the commodities involved change over time, providing valuable information for making smarter decisions.

You can lower costs and risks of manual errors by automating confirmation process with integration of Endur with platforms like “EFET Box by Ponton” or “Fidectus Gen System.” This integration allows for smooth management of power, physical commodities, and swaps. By automating the confirmation process, you can speed up the assessment of positions and improve the overall trading process.

To prevent data loss and save time on reconciling information between Endur and ERP systems, it’s important to have accurate financial processes in place. This includes efficient book closing and timely financial reporting. Endur’s Settlement Desktop module offers “custom bridges” that help establish connections between the systems, simplify the overall system structure, improve error handling, and most importantly enable real-time exporting of document data.

Real-time Insights, Faster Processing, and Improved Data Analytics

Furthermore, enable connectivity to QUANTUM, standalone microservices, and other toolkit applications via JDBC and Extend Client API for seamless integration and enhanced functionality.
