SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts clarifies Americas biodiesel assessment NYMEX settle

S&P Global Platts is clarifying the process used in its Americas daily biodiesel assessment.

These assessments incorporate the NYMEX daily settle for the ultra low sulfur diesel (ULSD) futures contract, rather than the Platts assessed value for this NYMEX ULSD at 13:30 Central Standard Time.

Platts will update the front page of its Weekly Global Biodiesel Report with the NYMEX ULSD front-month settle, changing it from the NYMEX ULSD 13:30 CST Houston assessment. This change will be made from the publication dated May 23, 2018 going forward.
