SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts clarifies ethanol Grade B CFR Ulsan quality, payment terms

S&P Global Platts seeks to clarify that its biofuels methodology for AAXVA00 Ethanol Grade B CFR Ulsan assessment reflects non-GM sugarcane as the basis feedstock.

In the absence of sugarcane-based Grade B ethanol price information, Platts may also refer to other accepted feedstocks and will use prevailing spot quality differentials to normalize to sugarcane-based Grade B ethanol.

Payment terms are also clarified as "industry standard terms", whether these are LC at sight or telegraphic transfer.

The updated Platts biofuels methodology and specifications guide can be found online at www.platts.com Please send comments or questions to asia_ags@spglobal.com with a CC to pricegroup@spglobal.com

Platts will consider all comments received and will make those not marked as confidential available upon request.
