LONDON (Reuters) - NYMEX's carbon emissions marketplace Green Exchange LLC has opened a new office in London and hired key staff from competitors in a push to gain market share in the $100 billion European carbon market.
Green Exchange said on Tuesday it had hired Les Male, former commercial director at Anglo-Dutch energy exchange APX-ENDEX, as head of its London office and Henry Bakker, formerly of market leader and rival European Climate Exchange, as director of communications.
Green Exchange has also hired Henrik Hasselknippe, former global head of carbon analysis at carbon market analysts Point Carbon, as managing director of global product development, the company said.
