Cost Control - Risk Mgmt. White Papers

Through the Fires - The Transformation of Energy Trading

Overview Energy markets are experiencing a period of unprecedented upheaval. Deregulation is driving competition and trading into previous monopoly domains, leading to a fundamental redistribution of risk from end-consumers to market participants. Recent re-assessment of these risks has resulted in an industry-wide credit crunch, significantly impacting share values and market liquidity, and forcing a renewed focus on risk management in all its guises. At the same time, e-commerce is changing the way businesses interact, producing a dramatic shift to online venues, and re-defining the roles of trade intermediaries.
