UK investigates claims of UK gas market manipulation

British energy regulators on Monday said they are investigating claims made by a whistleblower that UK traders have manipulated wholesale prices on Europe’s biggest gas market.

The allegation was made by a whistleblower to the UK’s Financial Services Authority (FSA) on November 9, who claimed to show that gas traders were seeking to rig the price of wholesale gas prices, according to an article in the Guardian newspaper.
