Buying & Selling
PRNs
Auctions
and the Broker Board
We have provided two methods to enable you to buy and sell
your PRNs through our web site:
Auctions
An exciting way to trade your PRNs and get the price you
want. To schedule an auction, you must be trading a minimum quantity of
50 tonnes.
If you have PRNs you wish to sell by auction, a traditional
'English' auction will be created where bids placed in the auction will
be of increasing value.
If you wish to buy PRNs by auction, i.e. have a seller
give you the best price, a reverse auction will be created where bids
placed in the auction will be of decreasing value.
All auction types have a reserve price that must be met
in order for a successful sale.
Broker Board
Buy and sell your PRNs 'on the spot'. If you choose to buy
or sell your PRNs in this manner, you will specify a fixed price for your
PRN. A buyer or seller will then see your PRN on the broker board and decide
if they wish to purchase from, or sell to you, at the price you have specified.
