Case Study: Ambrian Energy GmbH achieves rapid, low-cost trade and risk management deployment with ION Aspect

Ambrian Energy GmbH - Customer Case Study

Ambrian Energy GmbH, an international biofuels trading company based in Hamburg, needed to be fully operational immediately after its acquisition by HGM Group and faced a greenfield start-up environment with minimal IT support. The firm required a trade and risk management solution that supported biofuels trading, provided real-time information across departments, and could be adopted by traders with no learning delay — requirements met by vendor ION Aspect using AspectCTRM (with AspectDSC for market data).

ION Aspect delivered AspectCTRM as a SaaS cloud solution and had Ambrian live within two days of contract signature. Traders were immediately productive (many already familiar with AspectCTRM), infrastructure and support overheads were eliminated, and AspectDSC provided integrated real-time and historical market prices and pre‑trade analytics. The deployment delivered real‑time deal capture, mark‑to‑market, improved management visibility and risk controls, helped secure bank credit lines, and produced significant cost-of-ownership savings for Ambrian.
