AEGIS Markets Surpasses 2,000,000 Contracts Executed on Its Digital Marketplace

via Business Wire

Milestone underscores accelerating adoption of transparent and efficient hedging markets.

AEGIS Hedging Solutions (“AEGIS”), the leading provider of technology and expertise for commodity risk and revenue management, today announced that AEGIS Markets, its CFTC-regulated digital marketplace for commodity hedging, has surpassed 2,000,000 executed contracts.

In commodity terms, one “contract” or “lot” represents 1,000 barrels of crude oil or NGLs, or 10,000 MMBtu of natural gas. Crossing the 2 million-contract threshold reflects the equivalent of 2 billion barrels of crude oil hedged through AEGIS Markets. This milestone highlights the rapid transformation taking place across commodity hedging, as producers, consumers, and financial institutions increasingly shift away from opaque transaction channels toward efficient, transparent, and data-rich digital execution.

“Crossing the two-million-contract mark is a testament to how quickly the industry is embracing modern market infrastructure,” said Bryan Sansbury, CEO of AEGIS. “Every participant in the hedging markets deserves transparent and efficient execution. We are grateful to the Dealers and companies hedging commodity prices for adopting a marketplace that makes that a reality.”

Since launch, AEGIS Markets has introduced capabilities that enhance price discovery, reduce execution friction, automate back-office processing, and provide analytics that enable all market participants to trade with greater confidence.

Key highlights include:

  • 2,000,000+ total contracts executed
  • 38 active Dealers providing liquidity
  • 278 active hedgers executing transactions
  • +48% growth of overall trading YTD in 2025
  • +175% growth of customer-managed trading YTD in 2025
  • Recognition as the OTC Trading Platform of the Year for the 2nd consecutive year

“Companies are operating in increasingly volatile markets. They need technology and market access they can trust,” said Andrew Furman, President of AEGIS Markets. “AEGIS Markets was designed to make hedging markets better for everyone. It took 26 months to reach one million executed contracts and only 13 months to reach two million. We are only just beginning.”
