London Metal Exchange

Kynetix has worked alongside the London Metal Exchange for the last 10 years helping it to design, build, maintain, and evolve its proprietary systems for managing, financing, and settling physical metals contracts.

LMEsword™

This system facilitates the transfer of ownership of LME warrants and stock reporting. Warrants are held in a central depository, are produced to a standard format, and include a unique barcode.

LMEshield™

This is an electronic register provide global off-warrant commodity receipting.  By immobilising paper receipts and using electronic versions in the system, LMEshield™ supports and enables lending by addressing uncertainties surrounding commodity receipts as collateral and reducing the risk of fraud on financed material.

“We selected Kynetix both for their excellent track record in our sector and their demonstration of a deep understanding of the specifics of the LME’s management of warrants”
