Profile: Frey gains a competitive advantage with Maersk

Frey is a trading company founded as a joint venture between Maersk and Danske Commodities and incubated in Maersk Growth.

Watch Co-Founder Jeff L. Laursen discuss the advantages of collaboration with Maersk, and how Maersk’s rich data on structural opportunities helped Frey build a unique trading model and algorithm.

“There is an opportunity, but it requires a level of innovation and willingness to challenge industry norms– a willingness that we have seen with Maersk as an investor.”
