Advisory Services
StoneX offers full service futures and options on futures as part of our Integrated Risk Management Program (IRMP®) and for self directed experienced futures and options traders through our Futures Direct Division.
IRMP
The StoneX IRMP® offers a unique customer-centric approach to commodity risk management by working with our customers to identify and quantify all commodity risk that they may have in their business. By constructing a strategic and systematic approach to manage that risk, we offer a comprehensive view to protecting and enhancing the net margin and bottom line of the business.
The StoneX IRMP was created by and is managed by our consultants, who have in-depth expertise in the supply-and demand situation for specific commodities, access to our extensive proprietary database and detailed historical knowledge, and substantial experience in creating and using innovative risk-management tools. Selecting the best tools for the job – including exchange-traded futures and options, cash and forward-market contracts, and customized over-the-counter products – our consultants construct a risk-management program that is tailored to your company’s specific needs, and then work closely with you to execute it.
