The relationship

Australian agricultural and animal-health equities are a market the group understands well, because its origination companies serve the same customers and the same seasons. The quantitative desk expresses that understanding through hedged positions, behind the information barriers the Markets and Trading policies require, and Barangaroo provides the borrow. Positions are reported to the Chief Risk Officer nightly and remain within the listed-exposure limits of the Risk Appetite Framework.
