Physical/Exotic Commodity Trading

For those who are in the brokerage or inter-dealer brokerage business in non-liquid, non-exchange traded products such as fertilizer, distilled fuel oil, Diesel and perhaps non liquid instruments like leveraged loans, exotic debt, etc.

Do you ever foresee this business transitioning from a phone brokerage system to an electronic platform like alibaba where market participants define the product they are trying to see and receive interest directly from counterparties. Is it feasible to have an alibaba business model with a clearinghouse.

Any comments would be appreciated.
