About Us

April 2016 the founding team with a diversified background spanning commodity trading, risk management, shipping, technology and law came together to research into and develop a solution for the growing trade finance gap faced by global SME firms operating as producers/traders/end users in the bulk commodity import/export space.
2016 to 2018 the founders built a solution to the SME Trade Finance ecosystem problem. The solution was to enable the Commodity transaction for an SME firm without giving credit or lending.
This unique solution became the CEMP – NR Capital Trade Flow Fund SP which takes a principal position and direct ownership of the commodities during shipment or during a pre-agreed storage period.
The Fund launched in April 2018 after two years of research and development work on the business model, a digitised technology platform to allow the Fund strategy to be scalable and the legal framework master agreements to connect everything together.

Our non-credit approach to enabling physical commodity import/export transactions, which is unique in the trade finance hedge fund world, swaps pure credit risk faced by investors in other trade finance funds for real-world insurable physical risks.

Commodity trade

Conservatively, commodity trade represents around 25% of world trade, or around US$4.5 Trillion per year. Commodities regroup a vast array of raw materials which are at the root of most (if not all) of the manufactured products and food exchanged worldwide. These are the essentials of not just our lives, but the life of anyone around the world.
