In the natural gas space, Allegro edged out OpenLink as the
leader in the category, driven particularly by their strength in the
North American market. Others noted included SunGard with
5%, Triple Point with 3% and Trayport Contigo with 2%. All other
vendors listed in Figure 15 were noted only once.

In Oil and Oil Products Trading, OpenLink (18%) was again the
most noted vendors, again followed by Allegro (9%). Triple
Point, though trailing those that felt there was no leader in the
space, received notice by 7% of the respondents and was
followed by Solarc (which was acquired by OpenLink more than 2
years ago) with 5%. Amphora, with 3% was the only other vendor
to receive more than a single response.

Coal trading is not a large market for ETRM/CTRM vendors, and
the responses we received bear that out. The two companies
most often cited, Allegro and OpenLink, each were noted by less
than 10% of our respondents, with the combination of “Don’t
Know” and “None” making up about 70% of the total responses.
SunGard (5%), Triple Point (4%), Solarc (2%) and Trayport
Contigo (2%) were the only other companies to be noted more
than once by our respondents.
