Budapest gears up for energy
trader invasion at ETCSEE 2015

It is a great event especially

from a networking point of
view! Each and every year I
meet more and more people
at ETCSEE that opens new
business opportunities.
Assia Gekova, Trade Manager
SEE, Edison Trading Spa

Dear colleague,
In order to top the success of last years event, where we saw a record
number of C-level executives attend and a striking number of trading
firms* join the show, the enthusiasm for a new edition is very tangible
throughout the CSEE trading community weve been talking to.

Platinum Sponsor

Following the movements of the market, theres more than enough

justification to gather together again with 400+ CSEE trading
professionals. Based on our participants feedback and developments
in the market we will return to Budapest on 17 & 18 June not only a
beautiful city but also an important trading hub for the CSEE region.
In preparation for ETCSEE 2015 we have asked some of our key
stakeholders about their concerns and vision for the future of the
CSEE traded markets. Joining forces will help to emphasize the
importance of wholesale trading and represent the sector with one
strong voice. Please read their views on the next page
With over 16 years of experience in the region, ETCSEE has a welldeserved reputation as the regions number 1 networking event for
traders. This year we hope to further contribute towards one single
EU market and to serve your needs by providing the annual leading
platform for traders.

Prioritizing CSEEs Needs

I am looking forward to joining the discussion at
ETCSEE 2015 because of the ever-increasing regulation
on national and European level for energy markets which
is bringing constant market changes and challenges for
trading entities. We would like to find answers for now
and the future.
Falko Thormeier,
Head of Gas Poland & Hungary, VNG

We are experiencing changes in market conditions

right now that are often faster than market rules can
be developed and implemented. Traders must remain
in the debate through EFET, and help to share their
experiences in the market to ensure that conditions and
opportunities continue to improve.
Doug Wood,
Chair, Gas Committee, EFET

At ETCSEE2015, I am looking forward to discussing

the developments in the SEE region that could improve
market conditions for energy traders. In particular, when
it comes to the Bulgarian Power Exchange start up, an
event which seems to be closer now, and whether we
can expect concrete progress for the Serbian power
exchange anytime soon now
Andrea Siri,
Head of Trading SEE, Edison Trading

A lot of new regulations are coming up in the

near future, impacting gas trading in Europe. The
industry has to find suitable ways forward to face
the regulatory challenges and stay successful. Will
the liquidity at Central European Gas Hub be used
by other markets in Central - and Eastern Europe
for the new concepts of the Gas Target Model like
Trading Region or Satellite Market Model ?
Gottfried Steiner,
CEO, Central European Gas Hub
