RMB/FNB GrainhubPre-plant
Apr. 2007 - Dec. 2007Managing of individual clients' financing, cash flows, interest payments and progress of crop. Pre-plant supplies financing to the client, whilst at the same time guaranteeing the client a minimum or fixed price on his crop. The contract manager needs to calculate how much of a product needs to be planted to ensure the facility with FNB can be paid back. During the season it is important to have a good understanding of the crop, because RMB takes position on behalf of the client on SAFEX. Should the client not be able to deliver, there is a position on SAFEX that needs to be closed out before day of delivery. The contract manager needs to be in constant contact with internal as well as external clients to have a thorough knowledge of the physical and paper market.
