Starting from the final word, the dialogue forum aims to:
- Mitigate energy market volatility and future uncertainty
- Better data transparency-Internationally coordinated regulation
- a better common understanding of energy market trends and energy outlooks
Concluding statement has a summary of three different discussions:
1. Physical and financial markets’ linkages and energy markets regulation : no censensus
- 1st group "underlined the role of excessive financial speculation in the surge in prices and volatility"
- 2nd group "especially those involved in price reporting, felt that spot markets set their own prices, independently of any influence from financial markets"
- 3rd group "it is difficult to construct theoretically and test empirically ... whether market drives the physical or the other way around. "
2. Shared analysis of energy market trends and outlook
Aim: improve clarity and understanding of the various outlooks. (there are comparisons between IEA and OPEC's forecasts)- both the IEA and OPEC’s projections were similar in terms of supply/demand growth figures for 2011
- uncertainities : future demand, economic growth and technological change.
