New Symbols for M+4 Cash BFOE assessment Oct 1 launch

Effective October 1, 2014, and following a proposal note on the same subject published in June, Platts will launch a Cash BFOE assessment to reflect four forward Brent monthly contracts ahead of the month of publication (M+4).

Platts would also launch an Exchange of Futures for Physical (EFP) assessment to reflect the EFP for M+4 Brent.

The new assessments will be published alongside Platts existing Cash BFOE and EFP assessments in Platts Crude Oil Marketwire, Platts Oil Price Report and on Platts Global Alert pages 1210 and 1212.
