Tullett Prebon, an interdealer broker, has completed the acquisition of leading oil brokerage firm PVM Oil Associates in a move that expands its non-investment bank client base as it seeks to diversify.

More than 80% of PVM's sales in 2013 originated from non-investment bank clients, Tullet Prebon said in a statement announcing the completion of the $160 million acquisition first announced in May.
