Eka derives its strength from an in-depth understanding of all aspects of the Coal market, including physical contract management and execution, handling of grades and qualities, penalties, rejections and CV adjustments, price risk management with swaps, derivatives and OTCs, transportation by vessels, barges, railroads, trucks and containers, as well as physical cargo storage and distribution.
The solution helps you manage physical contracts (for instance, long-term agreements, spot purchases and sales, as well as swaps). It allows you to record quality analysis reports, and adjust contract pricing considering penalties and rejections based on delivered product quality.

Through the derivatives module, it helps you identify and manage price risk using swaps, futures and options.
