Centrica Statement

In response to press reports about trading in the wholesale energy market, Centrica wishes to make its position clear.

• Centrica has very robust governance and compliance policies, which regulate its market participation and behaviour. These policies are reviewed on a regular basis.
• Centrica’s traders are prohibited from providing price information to price reporting agencies.
• It’s important to stress that the wholesale gas market has more than 50 participants, not just energy supply companies, handling hundreds of trades every day.
• It is in everyone’s interests that there is a well-functioning and orderly wholesale energy market.
