COAL FUTURES

Coal accounts for 28% of the world's primary energy consumption and is set to remain an energy source for decades to come, particularly in Asia. Whereas oil and gas markets have been well serviced by futures exchanges for some time, over-the-counter (OTC) derivative and futures markets for coal are only now just starting to emerge.
