Industry Short List for Energy Trading and Risk ManagementProduct Type: Market Research ReportPublished by: IDC Published: November 2005 Product Code: R104-24972 Description
This Energy Insights study was created to help executives evaluate IT suppliers in the energy trading and risk management (ETRM) area that best address the needs of the business. Energy Insights compared eight vendors offering ETRM software applications and related services. The study includes essential guidance with specific recommendations for using the short list when evaluating IT suppliers for ETRM. "With high oil and gas prices and increased volatility, energy markets have heated up, which has spurred a similar reaction in the ETRM market," says Jill Feblowitz, director, Energy Wholesale Strategies. "Recently, the market for ETRM has picked up, largely driven by regulatory requirements, risk mitigation, opportunities for growth, the need for better integration, and to a lesser extent, obsolete technology."
