Weekly Index Rollout

The SCRs are the “mid of market mids” from a completely open industry survey. Every market participant has a voice — no membership fee, no subscription fee.

SCR is not based on unverifiable “supposed trades,” not on a journalist’s guess, not on a private pricing club number, and not on an unregulated trading screen where tiny trades can be conjured up or quietly reversed.

While we launched SCR Newsletter in Summer 2024 with its FOB Indo benchmarking, our group has been benchmarking all international coal markets (ARA, Colombia, Richards Bay, Newcastle and more) for private clients since January 2017.

SCR coal price data is the only coal dataset untainted by producer-owned Globalcoal inputs, private pricing clubs and the need to sell subscriptions and conferences to stay alive — SCR has no “special friends” or anything to hide, and that’s why ours is the coal dataset where use in litigation is expressly permitted, and the only one in Asia Pacific on which OTC derivatives are priced.
