How we manage risk.
Four checks that sit behind every deal we do.
-
Know who we trade with
Before we work with a new buyer or seller, we confirm who they are and who stands behind them.
- Company and ownership checks
- Sanctions and restricted-party screening
- Ongoing review of long-term counterparties
-
Trade controls
Some minor metals are subject to export or import licensing in certain countries, and the rules can change quickly.
- Route and destination checked before we commit
- Licence requirements reviewed for each shipment
- Deals paused if the paperwork does not add up
-
Quality and inspection
Material should match its specification when it arrives, not just on paper.
- Specifications agreed before shipment
- Certificates of analysis requested from the source
- Independent sampling and inspection where the deal calls for it
-
Responsible sourcing
Buyers increasingly need to know where their metals come from, and we aim to make that answer easy to give.
- Origin information collected and kept
- Questions asked when a supply chain is unclear
- Willingness to walk away from material we cannot trace
