    Becoming a globalCOAL Market Member...
    ... allows your company to transact physical and financial coal on the Standard Coal System. Physical coal trading is based on a Standard Coal Trading Agreement (SCoTA) with standard coal qualities (for ARA, Richards Bay and Newcastle). Financial is based on the Master Agreement Standard Coal Derivatives (MASCoD). These are the steps to becoming a Market Member of globalCOAL:
    1. Download the Product License Agreement (PLA), have one copy signed by an authorised representative of your company and return a copy to globalCOAL;
    2. Download the Usage Agreement, have two copies signed by an authorised representative of your company and return both copies to globalCOAL for counter-signature;
    3. If you want to trade financial coal, also download the MASCoD Agreement, have two copies signed by an authorised representative of your company and return both copies to globalCOAL for counter-signature;
    4. The person who signed the Usage Agreement should download and complete the globalCOAL Usage Agreement (Info Form), advising globalCOAL of:
