Loqsea’s Risk Manager now includes Tommy, an AI chatbot built directly into the platform. Trading teams can ask questions about live positions, risk exposure, P&L, and reconciliation status in plain language and receive accurate answers drawn from live platform data, without switching systems or generating a report first.
Tommy connects to the live data already inside the Risk Manager and returns answers through a conversational interface. Unlike a generic AI assistant, Tommy is built on top of commodity trading software designed specifically for derivatives desks, which means the data it can access and the questions it can answer are directly relevant to trading operations.
Questions about open positions, VaR, limit usage, and reconciliation status are answered at the time of asking, without requiring a report to be built or a colleague to retrieve the data manually.
Tommy is not configured by role. The questions it can answer are determined by what is already in the platform.
Traders can ask about open positions, Greeks, and upcoming futures expiries. Risk managers can query VaR, counterparty exposure, and limit usage. Operations teams can check reconciliation status and surface unmatched trades without pulling multiple reports. Senior managers can ask for P&L against budget or an overview of portfolio risk without waiting for a morning report.
Each answer is drawn from live data in the Risk Manager at the time of the question.
The challenge with AI in commodity trading is not the technology. It is access to the right data. A general-purpose AI assistant does not understand LME prompt dates, broken-date pricing, or cross-commodity exposure across derivatives positions. Tommy does, because it sits directly on top of commodity trading software built to handle exactly these structures.
The Risk Manager already provides real-time P&L, VaR, and margin across ICE, CME, LME, and SGX positions. Tommy makes that data directly queryable, removing the step between a question and its answer during a live session. For most desks, that step is currently a report, a system, or a colleague. Real-time risk management should not require any of those.
If you are not yet a client and want to see how Tommy works alongside P&L, VaR, and margin in a single environment, book a demo.
