Reconciliation

Monitor your trading activity with confidence

Mitigate the operational risks inside the European over-the-counter (OTC) energy market with Equias' electronic confirmation matching (eCM) service. eCM is a companion service to eSM for settlement matching, and to eRR for regulatory reporting. All these services are available as a bundle through eBO. Together they comprise the core fintech that enables the European OTC energy market.
