Advanced Treasury Intelligence
Vantry Capital provides FX execution, hedging and payments, built around Vantry ATI, our proprietary treasury platform. Evaluate hedging strategies across the range of probable outcomes, see every position and credit facility in one place, and act on the analysis with the same firm.
Technology and execution, from one firm
Most businesses manage currency risk between a bank's dealing desk and a spreadsheet. Vantry combines a proprietary analytical platform with the people and products to act on it, so each hedge is chosen against the exposure and policy it serves, and monitored after it is booked.
-
Analytical depth
Decisions grounded in analysis
Each hedging alternative is modelled across the distribution of possible exchange rates and scored against your budget rate and risk tolerance, so the choice of structure rests on what each one protects and gives up, rather than a single rate forecast.
-
Visibility and governance
Risk you can see and govern
Positions with Vantry and with other banks, coverage against target and credit usage at every facility sit in one view, with approval rules and an activity history around trades and payments.
-
Execution
Analysis that carries through to execution
Our dealers price and execute the structure you choose, our operations team settles it with your payments, and the same people review the program with you as conditions change.
One platform, from exposure to execution
Vantry ATI connects forecast exposure, strategy evaluation, risk analysis, trading, payments and reporting on the same data, for your team and ours. These views follow the platform's screens; every figure in them is synthetic.
