Balance month US aromatics assessment roll

Platts is proposing to roll its balance month US spot aromatics assessments -- benzene, toluene, mixed xylene, cumene and styrene -- five calendar days before the end of the calendar month starting in October.

For example, the balance month assessments will roll from October to November on October 27, 2009.

Currently, Platts rolls the balance month spot aromatics assessments five US working days prior to the end of the month.
