Examine the Market Competitive Intensity of Denmark with This Dynamic Report
DUBLIN, Ireland-(Business Wire)-August 29, 2008 - Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/9e1efc/market_competitive) has announced the addition of the "Market Competitive Intensity (MCI): Denmark" report to their offering.
Datamonitors Market Competitive Intensity Index (MCI) is a robust framework for measuring and benchmarking the development of competitiveness and market conditions in a range of gas and electricity markets. The MCI assessment draws on nine underlying metrics grouped into three broad clusters: Market framework; Supplier Push and Customer Pull.
Scope
- Insight into the current levels of competitiveness in the gas and power markets of the EU 27 and 6 related markets.
- Analysis of the commercial opportunities and threats in the selected markets both currently and in 2010.
- A benchmarking of the factors driving competition and market entry in the gas and power sectors of the selected markets.
Highlights of this title
Datamonitors MCI Index offers a robust framework for measuring the development of utility Market Competitive Intensity.
MCI scores are calculated using two different methods. The first, the simple weighted average (additive) measure shows overall competitive intensity. The second, the multipliative method, is more complex. It prevents markets with an overly wide spread of underlying raw scores from exerting undue influence over, or skewing, the final result.
Key reasons to purchase this title
- Assess the competitive environments of gas and power markets both now and in the future.
- Gain insight into value chain factors driving market competitiveness and how each individual part of the chain will evolve as competition develops.
- Screen future market entry plans against the MCI scores to highlight key areas of potential risk and opportunity.
ANALYSIS:
- Introduction: Datamonitors MCI Index offers a robust framework for measuring the development of energy Market Competitive Intensity
- The MCI Index shows how attractive a particular market is to new entrants in terms of the competitive environment
- The MCI assessment draws on nine underlying metrics grouped into three broad clusters: Market framework; Supplier Push; Customer Pull.
- The MCI Index measures competitive intensity in the EU 27 and 6 related markets
- The MCI Index assesses markets as they stood in early 2008 and forecasts conditions likely to be prevailing three years after full market opening
- Each of the nine pillars has an assessment scale to allow for the comparison of diverse markets (see appendix for more details)
- Two differing overall MCI scores are calculated to ensure full clarity of results
- A simple weighted average (additive) measure shows overall competitive intensity
- A weighted multiple (multiplicative) measure shows overall competitive intensity
- The MCI framework has a number of applications for your organization
- Context: Denmark's upstream gas and access to the Nord Pool are key to its strong competitive intensity
- Denmark leads Europe in terms of power market competitive intensity
- Strong Market Framework factors help Denmark maintain a position towards the top of the MCI gas rankings
