Credit support

Financial Guarantees

Participants in the National Electricity Market (NEM), Short Term Trading Market (STTM), Victorian Wholesale Gas Market, and Gas Supply Hub may be obliged under the Market Rules to provide credit support to AEMO. AEMO has a single financial guarantee pro forma to be used for these markets, and all guarantees must be in the prescribed format. AEMO recommends you get guarantees checked by AEMO before execution, by emailing a draft copy to prudentials@aemo.com.au.

Credit Support Management Guide

AEMO has prepared a Credit Support Management Guide to assist Participants with the procurement, exchange, return and expiry of financial guarantees for the NEM, STTM, and Victorian Wholesale Gas Market. This guide contains information on AEMO’s credit support processes and Participant obligations, and there are useful references to market rules.
