Global Power Derivatives Newsletter | Nordics Special

Dear Customers, Partners and Friends,

With autumn approaching, we are once again re-focusing our efforts on the Nordics.
With the coming fundamental shake-up of the market setup in this region, we believe that the trading community deserves to benefit from the best available offering.

This could mean the lowest margin requirements possible thanks to cross-margining efficiencies, or the opportunity to trade within the extensive network of over 400 participants.

From September, we are launching a comprehensive programme aimed at boosting liquidity by driving up open interest and order book trades, while we continue to expand our local presence and the opportunities for you to meet our experts face-to-face.

In today’s newsletter, we summarise the attractive offering we have for the Nordics, but as ever, we want to develop this market together with you and we are open to your feedback.

Let’s continue the conversation and enjoy the newsletter,

Steffen Köhler
CCO | EEX
