SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts proposes to assess Asia PP raffia China domestic prices daily

S&P Global Platts is proposing changing the weekly Asia polypropylene China domestic ex-works raffia assessment, currently assessed up to the close of the assessment window at 4:30 pm Singapore time (0830 GMT) on Wednesdays, to a daily assessment.

This change in methodology will capture daily price movements seen in the PP China domestic market.

PP China domestic raffia in Yuan/mt is ex-works basis inclusive of the 17% value added tax and 6.5% import duties.

Platts is seeking feedback until November 3, 2017, with a proposed launch date of January 2, 2018.
