Business Philosophy
We believe risk management programs designed with real-world objectives and controls can effectively manage the multiple risk facing the ever-changing energy industry. Utilities and corporations have a unique opportunity to expand profitability for both the shareholder and the customer by better controlling their price risk.
Company Overview
RMI opened its doors in 1988 to assist industrial customers with the execution
of commodity hedging programs. When deregulation of the energy industry began
in the late 1980's, there was a belief that benefits from a more competitive
and open market would lead to lower prices for everyone. As with any developing
market, many obstacles entered the energy industry. During this period, RMI's
industrial clients began to rely on RMI's hedging experience to better control
energy costs. With increased market volatility, utilities, municipalities, and
cooperatives sought out RMI to assist them with the development and
implementation of their risk management programs. As the energy marketplace
evolves, RMI continues to grow and expand its services to meet the needs of the
industry.
Regardless of your company's size or experience in hedging price risk, RMI can
help to integrate a risk management program to meet your long-term goals. We
apply our experience to guide an organization from the initial introduction on
the concept of risk management to the implementation and execution of
strategies and trades. Because we have been involved in all facets of the risk
management process, we are able to stay focused on the long-term objectives of
our clients and advise them accordingly.
