Do you recognize any of these situations?

Three distinct profiles. One central challenge: transforming market volatility into cash flow predictability.

01
01 · RURAL PRODUCER

You plant, harvest, and sell — but the price has already moved.

Agricultural commodity volatility can erode your margin between planting and selling. A well-designed hedging strategy locks in your results and gives your cash flow predictability.

02
02 · AGRIBUSINESS

Your raw material went up, but your sales contract was already closed.

Companies that buy inputs and sell processed products face risk on both sides. Hedging allows you to lock in costs and protects operating margins against adverse price movements.

03
03 · EXPORTER

You invoiced in dollars, but get paid in local currency — and the FX rate moved against you.

Exporters deal with the mismatch between billing and cost currencies. FX hedging ensures the contracted rate reflects the planned margin.

The Real Cost of Unmanaged Risk

Most Companies Hedge to Avoid Loss. The Best Ones Hedge to Generate Margin.

There's a fundamental difference between a hedge that simply limits downside and one that actively contributes to your result. The gap between the two shows up directly on your bottom line — every quarter, every crop cycle, every fiscal year.

Your hedge is neutralizing opportunity

You hedged, but how much did you leave unearned? Conventional solutions limit exposure, not outcome. When the market moves in your favor, the margin that should have been yours stays on the table.

Decisions without quantitative support underperform

It is humanly impossible to simultaneously track commodity curves, FX dynamics, volatility surfaces, and macro signals — and convert all of that into optimal positioning in real time. Companies that rely on intuition consistently make decisions that cost them margin.

Fragmented exposure means fragmented results

When FX, interest rates, and commodities are managed in silos, you lose the ability to see the full picture. You can't optimize what you can't measure. And you can't protect — or grow — a margin you can't fully see.

UHEDGE was built for companies that understand risk management isn't just about defense. It's about being precise enough to turn market complexity into a consistent competitive advantage.

Who's Behind the Methodology

20 Years of Real-World Trading. Systematized Into Software and Methodology.

Rafael Lins dos Anjos founded UHEDGE in 2018 after nearly two decades operating in the world's largest financial centers — from Santander to Macquarie in London, from Banco Pine to ED&F MAN, where he served as Global Head of OTC Trading.

A Mechatronics Engineer from Poli-USP, with postgraduate studies at the London Business School and a Master's in Economics from Insper, Rafael built UHEDGE's quantitative methodology on the same technical foundation as the world's leading institutions — and made it available to Brazilian companies with real exposure to commodities, FX, and interest rates.

UHEDGE is not a tech startup that discovered financial markets. It is the result of 20 years of real-world trading, systematized into software and methodology.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about hedging, pricing and asset management

What is quantitative hedging?

It is price-risk protection built from mathematical models calibrated with market data, not from intuition or spreadsheets. At UHEDGE every structure is priced, stress-tested and continuously monitored.

Who is UHEDGE for?

Agribusiness companies, power generators and traders, food manufacturers, financial institutions and family offices exposed to price risk in commodities, FX or interest rates.

Is UHEDGE regulated?

Yes. UHEDGE is an asset manager regulated by CVM (the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission), and its portfolio manager holds the ANBIMA CGA and CGE certifications.

How does the pricing platform work?

The platform calculates the fair value of derivatives and hedging structures (options, swaps, exotics) with proprietary models, letting you compare the bank's quote against theoretical value before trading.

Does UHEDGE earn spread on trades?

No. We are never the counterparty and we embed no spread. We are paid through advisory fees, software licences or management fees, which removes any conflict of interest.

How do I get started?

Just send the contact form. We schedule a diagnosis of your price-risk exposure and present the right solution — software, advisory or asset management.

Your Margin Deserves More Than a Reactive Hedge Strategy.

In a world of persistent inflation, commodity swings, and geopolitical uncertainty — the companies that protect and grow their margin aren't the ones with the best luck. They're the ones with the best risk intelligence.

The first step is a direct conversation with one of our specialists. No commitment. No pitch deck. Just a clear view of your current exposure.
