Enron's Energy Traders Trading for UBS
LCG, Feb. 12, 2002--Yesterday marked renewed energy trading by former traders for Enron and associated staff, now working for UBS Warburg Energy.UBS Warburg AG, the Swiss bank, owns the group, and whereas Enron conducted business through EnronOnline, a new site, UBSWenergy.com, is handling new accounts.The unit is to be found in Enron's Houston office tower, and is led by Greg Whalley, once Enron president and chief operating officer. The energy trading business accounted for most of Enron's profits before misleading accounting practices led to its stock plunging and a bankruptcy filing in December.The deal UBS Warburg made to acquire the trading unit last month will give Enron a claim on 33 percent of pre-tax profits for two years. An analyst at Fulcrum Global Partners in New York, Michael Barbis, told the Houston Chronicle, "no one expects them to be what they were. It will be a tougher time for them to get going, is my bet."In the wake of Enron Corp.'s demise, which led to losses by other traders, some of those who dealt with Enron in the past are so far conducting transactions using the Intercontinental Exchange, owned by a consortium of well-financed energy-trading firms.
