Established and built international physical coal broking desk from Singapore, providing specialist coverage of bespoke Australian off-spec (4900-5500NAR) physical thermal coal markets. Service extended to Indonesian, South African, US, Colombian and Russian far East Coast markets; in addition providing tailored analytics and OTC brokerage services across the broader commoditised global thermal and met coal market. As a global desk, the team was committed to delivering value for clients through the Marex Daily CV Report which covered key coal markets (physical and financial) and created unprecedented price transparency in the Australia to China coal market. Matt’s team became the standard for efficient and effective price discovery in the bespoke coal categories such as Australian High Ash thermal coal, Australian Semi-Soft coking coal). The Marex team placed great emphasis on market innovation through education (eg, fundamental shift to spot/short term trading plus long term pricing against index in China and Indonesia), plus facilitate the development of new coal indices through thorough market/journalist consultation as well as extensive research (eg Aussie 5500NAR). Matt singlehandedly developed the precise coal specifications which then became API5 and API 8 benchmark coal indexes in late 2011; he was also instrumental in the development of these indexes alongside Argus & Mccloskey. To this day, 2024, the API5 coal index remains the established benchmark for the vast majority of thermal coal exported from Australia to China!
