SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts proposes to change assessment months for CFR West Coast India CPO, FOB Indonesia CPO, RBDP Stearin and PFAD

S&P Global Platts proposes to change the assessment laycan for its daily assessments of CFR West Coast India Crude Palm Oil (CPO), FOB Indonesia CPO, Palm Fatty Acid Distillates (PFAD) and Refined Bleached and Deodorized Palm (RBDP) Stearin to individual assessments month for the first and second month, effective March 16, 2022.

The assessment laycans will roll over on the first publication day after the 15th. For example, from November 16-December 15, the CFR West Coast India CPO, FOB Indonesia CPO, PFAD, and RBDPS assessments will reflect parcels loading over December and January, while from December 16-January 15, the assessments will reflect parcels loading in January and February.

The first and second month will better match the physical market liquidity as per S&P Global Platts CFR West Coast India and FOB Indonesia CPO, PFAD, RBDPS assessment specifications.

For example, between November 16 and 30, S&P Global Platts CFR West Coast India CPO, FOB Indonesia CPO, PFAD and RBDPS first month assessments will reflect loading during full December, and between December 1 and 15, will reflect loading in the second half of December.
