OrbicTrade, a rapidly growing provider of AI-powered trade capture solutions for commodity trading organisations, has announced the appointment of Amir Soufizadeh as Director to support its next phase of enterprise growth.
The company is tackling a long-standing operational challenge: manual and time-consuming trade capture processes that do not reflect how traders actually work. OrbicTrade’s platform delivers commodity-aware, AI-driven trade capture, including pre-deals, directly from emails, instant messages, and voice communications. This approach improves speed and accuracy without requiring changes to trader workflows or the replacement of existing CTRM systems.
With increasing interest from trading and operations teams looking to modernise front-to-back processes, OrbicTrade is now focused on expanding its enterprise footprint, strengthening governance and delivery frameworks, and deepening integration across the wider trading technology ecosystem.
Amir Soufizadeh joins OrbicTrade at a pivotal time, bringing extensive experience in delivering large-scale technology and transformation programmes for global commodity trading organisations.
“OrbicTrade is solving a very real and persistent problem in commodity trading bridging the gap between how trades are executed and how they are captured operationally,” said Amir Soufizadeh. “The platform has demonstrated clear value in improving efficiency and reducing friction for trading and operations teams. My focus will be on supporting OrbicTrade’s scale-up journey and ensuring the product remains enterprise-ready as adoption accelerates.”
This appointment underlines OrbicTrade’s continued investment in building a leadership team capable of supporting complex enterprise environments, including integration with established CTRM platforms, governance requirements, and global operating models.
“As demand for modern, AI-enabled trade capture continues to grow, it’s important we strengthen not only the product but the experience around it,” said a spokesperson for OrbicTrade. “Amir’s background in delivering complex trading technology programmes aligns strongly with where OrbicTrade is heading as we scale.”
OrbicTrade continues to broaden its presence across global commodity and equity markets, helping trading organisations enhance trade capture timeliness, improve data quality, and strengthen operational resilience.
