Context :
As part of its Risk Management & Market Access services, GEMS has developed a number of tailor-made/structured Power & Gas supply agreements (SSA’s) to meet the specific needs of some of its clients.
Some of these agreements require a significant attention and regular (even daily) monitoring and follow-up to ensure that the transaction terms are well respected and offer the best experience to the client all along the deal lifecycle (from pre-trade to post-trade).
A typical SSA, would involve a specific Security Package aiming at covering/capping the credit risk borne by GEMS. It is usually made of:
a set of covenants that the client must comply with, a set of risk limits to be monitored on a regular basis a mechanism to secure cashflows related to the payments due by the client to GEMS
A Security Agent (a 3rd party specialized in implementing the legal instruments of such security package) would also be involved in the implementation and management of every SSA.
Such a specific and complex structure will require, upon the closing of a new SSA, the implementation of a bespoke monitoring process to ensure the proper monitoring of the different components of the security package in interaction with the Client, the Security Agents and GEMS’s support & risk functions involved in the operations of the transaction.
