Engelhart Commodities

Anyone worked at or know much about these guys? Spun out of BTG Pactual a decade ago and recently bought Trailstone, seems they focus mostly on paper after taking some big losses in physical markets a few years ago.

Engelhart Commodities, spun out of BTG Pactual, has a history of focusing on commodities trading. Based on the most helpful WSO content, it appears they shifted their focus more towards paper trading after experiencing significant losses in physical markets. Their recent acquisition of Trailstone suggests a strategic move to expand or diversify their operations. If you're considering opportunities or partnerships with them, it might be worth exploring their current market positioning and risk management strategies, especially given their past challenges in physical trading.

I applied for the grad internship and had a first call with a recruiter but didn’t hear back, you ?
