GFI Market Data, a division of GFI Group Inc., announced today that it has entered into an agreement with Petrol Energetika, a leading Slovenian energy company and the principal supplier of oil and other energy products to the Slovenian market.

Petrol Energetika will use GFI market data to gain an insight into markets with limited liquidity as well as those that are in the process of deregulating or have done so recently.

Shai Popat, Head of European Sales at GFI Market Data said: “We are very happy to welcome Petrol Energetika as a client. We will strive to provide them with the best quality data in energy and the commodities. Our data derives from EnergyMatch® Europe, our world-class electronic trading platform for energy and commodities, and from our highly experienced brokers. Our strength and reputation as a broker in these regions allow GFI to play a leading role in the provision of high quality market data.”

As Eastern European markets deregulate and more players are coming to the market, the need for high quality information is on the rise. GFI is focused on providing a wealth of data that will assist companies like Petrol Energetika in such areas as price discovery, valuation and market risk.
