Expana Benchmark Prices get published on a twice daily, daily, twice weekly, weekly and monthly basis depending on the liquidity of the assessed markets.

The assessment will be available on our Expana Analytics platform the following day.

Expana’s market reporters are experienced and well trained in the price discovery process and know that transparency is built upon trust. As there is no obligation for anyone to report prices to Expana, should we jeopardize this trust our contacts will cease to talk to us and the reliability and reputation of our price assessments will suffer. Therefore, keeping the identity of those that report price information to us confidential is critical for the price discovery process. Further to this we use secure technology to guard our data and systems from intrusion.

As part of the price discovery process Expana market reporters will reach out to industry participants on a daily basis to collect price trends and market movements. People contacted by our team are buyers, sellers, traders, brokers and anyone else with relevant market information.

Expana welcomes price inputs from any industry participant that has relevant, non-speculative, information. Anyone wishing to participate in the EBP process can email us at [email protected].
