SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts launches iron ore lump premium swaps forward curve

S&P Global Platts launched a daily forward curve of swaps whose settlement basis is the Platts iron ore spot lump premium assessment (Code: IOCLP00), effective December 1, 2017.

To assess the monthly strips, Platts may use information gathered from exchange screens, active market participants' reported trade information and brokers' forward curves.

The assessments are for M0, M1, M2 and M3. Platts will assess the current month (M0) value until liquidity moves on to the next contract month.
