Strategy: Mobius employs a comprehensive and proven process when analyzing the risks inherent in a client energy portfolio. Mobius identifies and de-aggregates both the assets and risk components across the client’s energy portfolio. Following the identification of a client’s energy position, Mobius determines a client’s specific exposure volatility in the various energy markets. With these two pieces of the puzzle in hand, Mobius works within the framework of client’s policies and procedures to develop a strategy that reduces risk and achieves previously determined client objectives. Mobius has developed strategies regarding many aspects of client’s energy portfolio including: transportation and storage arbitrage, run/do not run generation asset analysis, fuel switching analysis, and commodity exposure management.

Implementation: Developing a strategy, however, is only the first step. Inefficient execution of risk strategies costs real dollars and diminishes the effectiveness of the strategy itself. Mobius executes or assists in the execution of strategies on behalf of clients directly with third parties without standing in the middle of the transaction (Mobius is NOT a broker & ONLY works on behalf of the client). Mobius increases the transparency of the transaction through increased price discovery and market insight. Our objectivity and independence are critical to an efficient and cost-effective execution.

Reporting: Given the increased regulatory complexities that Sarbanes-Oxley and FAS have placed on executives and boards, it is imperative energy positions are accurately reported and available on a real-time basis. Through www.MobiusRiskNet.com, our clients have desktop access to their energy positions, energy budgets and risk reports on a real-time basis.
