What type of markets does the Natural Gas Exchange (NGX) provide trading for?

• A. Natural gas and electricity markets
• B. Agricultural commodities
• C. Fixed income securities
• D. Equities from emerging markets

Answer: (A)

The Natural Gas Exchange (NGX) is specifically designed to facilitate trading in the natural gas sector, which includes products and services directly related to natural gas. Additionally, it extends its operations to cover electricity markets, thus providing a platform for trading in both natural gas and electricity. This dual focus on energy markets allows market participants to manage their trades and hedging strategies more effectively within the energy sector.

The other options are not suitable as the NGX does not deal in agricultural commodities, fixed income securities, or equities from emerging markets. Each of these markets is governed by different factors and operates under distinct regulatory frameworks that do not align with the core focus of the NGX on energy trading.
