We have been working with CompuHedge from 2006. We are extremely satisfied with the CompuHedge system. It has been a pleasure to work both with the support teams and the development teams, who have given us a rapid and sterling response to any issues that have come up. Most importantly, the system has proved itself on a number of occasions. During the nearly ten years that we have worked with CompuHedge, there have been several periods of extremely volatile market conditions. The CompuHedge system has helped us navigate these rocky periods. On a more day-to-day basis, we use the system to keep track of our positions etc. Also, the system produces our quarterly reports (including hedge accounting -which in fact is used by us and all our international subsidiaries, overseen by our auditor KPMG.) Throughout the years the system has been updated on a very regular basis, incorporating both our own requests and also smart features conceived and designed by the CompuHedge team. Although some of these changes have been relatively minor, the sheer amount of new, relevant features, coupled with the ease of use of the software, definitely gives CompuHedge the edge over comparable systems.

We have used CompuHedge services for Hedge Accounting (IFRS), and were impressed by both the simplicity and the features of the CompuHedge system. We drastically reduced the amount of time invested in calculation, validation, recording and documentation needed, thus resulting in both productivity and cost savings. I would like to particularly single out the automatic Auditor Report. This report was a dramatic help in complying with the complex IFRS hedging regulations. I would also like to take this opportunity to commend you on the fantastic Back Office support. Any issues we had were dealt with in a professional manner, promptly and courteously.

Currency risk management requires real-time information and powerful analytical and tactical tools. By reducing the risks, minimizing the losses or maximizing the profits, CompuHedge assists us in making the right decision at the right moment. The integrated policy management tool immediately highlights non-compliance with company policies

Joost M. van Grinsven ; CFO, Irvita Plant Protection NV

We are overall very satisfied with the CompuHedge system. It has produced accurate FAS 133 reports in a minimal amount of time, thereby cutting costs with our Auditor, Ernst & Young. Back Office support has been first class.

Walter Tabachnik ; Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer, Oridion

In 2012, we engaged CompuHedge to fundamentally overhaul our Risk Management capabilities. Refinery Margins are our core business and major exposure. Creating scenarios' analysis, involves extremely high complexity and we realized that in order to develope such capabilities, we needed to outsource professional expertise in this specific field . Our goal was to create a decision support and control system for the upper management and for the company's Traders. The system which CompuHedge developed has been operational since 2013, and is used by different departments in Paz Ashdod Refinery, ranging from Back Office/Middle Office, to Traders, to Senior Management. The CompuHedge team is very supportive in all aspects and we are very satisfied with the way the system has been implemented.
