Our customers and suppliers face greater risk and more volatile prices than ever before, and in response World Fuel Services has dedicated key resources to price and risk management services - what we call 'PRISM'. Uniquely positioned by virtue of our presence, focus, organization and expertise, WFS has the most comprehensive, creative and effective PRISM services in the marine world.
World Fuel Services is not only the largest marine fuel marketer in the world, but also a leader in the development and application of derivatives. Not only do we offer a full array of fuel-hedging and risk management options, we integrate these services seamlessly with our expertise in physical fuel purchasing. The combination of size, experience, and deep domain expertise results allows us to customize flexible solutions suited to each client's specific objectives.
We will work with you locally to develop a proactive PRISM strategy, then turn to our global team to effectively execute and manage the agreed program. Whether it's a simple swap, or a complex design incorporating embedded options and physical delivery, World Fuel Services has the resources and the experience to bring the right approach, and secure the best arrangement.
In PRISM services, as with our other offerings, WFS adopts a partnering approach and strives for a comprehensive, proactive solution. We have extensive proprietary market information and analyses, enabling a deep and broad analysis of the needs and goals of our customers. Cooperating closely, we can evaluate customers' purchase streams and inherent price exposures, create detailed mathematical models, forecasts and stress tests, and lead an ongoing dialogue to determine the appropriate PRISM instruments and strategies. World Fuel Services can also administer all the pertinent tasks related to execution, tracking and settlement of PRISM transactions, including fixed-price swaps, price caps, price collars and basis-swap transactions.
World Fuel Services provides its clients with customized, valuable ongoing forecasting and reporting tools, including concise and relevant information about the oil markets in general and the marine fuel markets in particular.
Whatever your price risk management needs may be, World Fuel Services has the long-term experience and specialized skills to help you reduce the risks of fuel price volatility.
