Ambrian Commodities

Ambrian Commodities Limited is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ambrian Capital plc.

Ambrian Commodities, which is authorised by the FSA and is currently a member of the London Metal Exchange (LME), European Climate Exhange (ECX), Powernext and ICE, offers a full range of commodities services including:

Broker/Dealer in LME products
Physical Metal trading
Carbon Emissions trading
Soft Commodities - Sugar, Coffee, Cocoa - and Grain Futures
Energy Futures
Precious Metals

Ambrian Commodities started trading in April 2006 with a highly experienced team; since its inception and following our success in the base metals markets, Ambrian has recruited additional traders and sales staff with a high level of expertise to manage and ensure the successful growth across the product base.

Ambrian Commodities is a market maker in carbon emissions contracts and offers futures brokerage services in soft commodities (eg, sugar), grain, and energy products, all of which represent a natural progression for the company. The activity of Ambrian Commodities is strategically positioned to be a natural fit within the Ambrian Capital group of companies to offer both customers and investors an integrated natural resources partner.

Ambrian Asset Management

Ambrian Asset Management Ltd (‘AAM’) is a specialist investment management business and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ambrian Capital plc.

In November 2006, Ambrian Asset Management Limited launched its first fund: Golden Prospect Precious Metals Limited (“GPPM”), a closed ended, tax efficient vehicle registered in Guernsey and listed on AIM. Ambrian Asset Management earns a management fee and, potentially, a performance fee for providing investment management services to GPPM. The Group transferred into GPPM the bulk of its portfolio of precious metals investments, valued at approximately £9.4 million in return for GPPM shares. We plan to build on this success by launching further funds that complement our expertise in the wider resources sector.

The organisation is able to make use of the extensive skill base by utilising the existing subsidaries of Ambrian Capital:

Ambrian Partners - equity research, broking
Ambrian Commodities - commodities dealing

Ambrian Asset Management is an investment manager authorised and regulated by the FSA (Financial Services Authority).
