简要回答
Copper adds point pricing, exposure, hedging, valuation and settlement on top of trade and logistics. ROSP runs the chain so pricing status and risk go back to the business.
How do copper enterprises manage point pricing, exposure and operational risk?
Procurement, contract, point pricing, logistics, inventory, sales, settlement, hedging, exposure, risk — one chain.
PROBLEM
Problems copper enterprises face
Pricing status scattered
Which contracts are priced and which are not is spread across ledgers, so exposure cannot be computed.
Spot and futures disconnected
Spot purchases, sales and futures hedges are out of sync and hedge effectiveness cannot be verified.
Risk cannot reach the business
Risk stays in reports; teams cannot locate the contract, batch and owner.

常见问题
Q. Why do copper enterprises need point pricing management?
A. Point pricing is the common pricing mechanism in copper trading. Unpriced volumes form price exposure, so point pricing execution, pricing windows and hedging must be managed together.
Q. How do point pricing and hedging relate?
A. Point pricing decides spot pricing status; hedging offsets the unpriced exposure. While pricing is open, exposure exists and needs hedge cover; once priced, exposure releases and hedges should be closed accordingly.
