Platts decides to amend Sunflower Oil FOB Black Sea market on close timestamp

Platts, part of S&P Global Commodity Insights, will update the European Sunflower Oil FOB Black Sea (SFWBL00) market on close timestamp from 1700 London time to 1630 London time, with effect from June 5.

Platts proposed amending the timestamp on April 3, in a subscriber note available here.

The change will bring the assessment in line with Platts other vegetable oil assessments, including the existing CIF Rotterdam Crude Palm Oil (ACPOC00) and Crude Palm Kernel Oil (ACPKA00) assessments, as well as the new daily FOB Dutch Mill Crude Rapeseed Oil assessment, which launched April 25. The subscriber note for that assessment launch can be found here.

Bids, offers, trades and indicative values will only be considered for the assessment if they are received before the 1630 London time market on close cut off.
