LNG
Liquidity has evolved tremendously over the past 15 years within European gas and on a global scale, the TTF and NBP have become benchmarks in their own respect. This progress is set to continue as the energy markets move away from oil indexed contracts, with these major European benchmarks along with the JKM (financial LNG) being increasingly used as a tool for hedging liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargoes.
Given our structure, knowledge of the market and establishment as one of the leading brokers in European Gas, we are well placed to help counterparties hedge their physical exposure using the JKM outright or as spreads against TTF/NBP, along with those who want to take proprietary positions.
BGC Trader – Volume Match
Our aim is to bring innovative and forward-thinking solutions in a constantly evolving environment that will drive change and optimise trading in the market.
Volume match is a proprietary software that has been offered and successfully utilised in financial markets globally since 2009. It is a fully anonymous electronic trading platform that we aim to focus on servicing the JKM Market and is a web based application, of which users have individual log in details to access the platform and requires no IT install.
How VM works:
- – Throughout the day, price levels are set down the futures curve
- – Market participants register an anonymous interest to buy/sell at the set level which will anonymously execute a trade should two interests match
- – At the conclusion of the Volume Match, only those participating will be aware of their transactions
- – All unfilled interest remains undisclosed to the marketplace (including the Broker) and removes execution risk
