INDUSTRY CONSORTIUMS
Mercuria continues to collaborate with innovative fintech firm CurlHg and has
rolled out its Optical Character Recognition and Machine Learning technology into
Mercuria’s main ETRM platform. This technology reads and digitalizes the main
shipping documents and therefore eliminates key entry of the commodity’s physical characteristics into our systems, resulting in more efficient and accurate operating environment. CurlHg’s solutions are being adopted across the industry through its collaboration with Vakt.
Mercuria believes that the most effective way to move our markets forward is through collaboration with
our peers and other market participants, rather than several organisations working towards the same
goal in silos. Examples of our commitment to industry partnerships was our co-founding of VAKT and
Komgo; these organisations seek to digitalise the trade and commodities finance process through blockchain based open platforms.
Since successfully driving the inception of these initiatives, Mercuria is now a value-add shareholder for
VAKT and Komgo and helping to drive adoption through committing volumes and fully integrating with
both platforms as an active user and industry advocate. We are acutely aware that there is always more
that can be done to enable the transition to a more transparent and sustainable commodity supply chain.
As such, we continually look for relevant organisation to co-invest and co-ideate with us on the newest
technological deployments.
