Our Global Financial Coal coverage

Indicative End-of-Day pricing for key global coal benchmarks including Argus-McCloskey API 2 index (API2), API4, Newcastle, and implied freight, sourced by the Tullett Prebon and ICAP trading desks.
Parameta Solutions provides specialist OTC coal market data trusted by traders, analysts, and risk managers. Our data helps clients track prices, analyse volatility, and respond to shifts in supply, demand, and macro conditions.
Coal markets are global, complex, and driven by geopolitics, freight, and energy transition pressures, yet much of the price discovery happens off‑screen, where transparency is limited. By sourcing directly from interdealer broker desks, Parameta captures real negotiated OTC prices, delivering a clear, reliable view of coal activity to support pricing, risk management, and decision‑making across the trade lifecycle.
