8 BENCHMARK PRICE ASSESSMENTS THE SIGNIFICANCE Focus, Impact and Relevance Benchmarks are used to price term contracts Futures settlements are often tied to spot market assessments Derivatives price out against spot price assessments or futures settlements

9 USE OF BENCHMARK ASSESSMENTS Main applications of assessments in the physical markets Frame agreements (long-term contracts) at market price which mitigate price volatility Lower-risk, assessment-linked spot transactions, which help to manage cash flow New trading strategies (sell fixed / buy floating priced cargoes in a falling market, for example) A reference for current market price (for analysts, investors, traders just returned from holidays ) Applications of assessments for derivative markets The index functions as the underlying price for settlement basis for derivatives Used for OTC (over the counter) paper swaps and exchange-cleared futures & options Settlement mechanism tends to use average of the month of assessment prices Liquidity tends to concentrate in the first few months where spot cargo hedging takes place Speculative position-taking in paper markets is an important liquidity provider for market players seeking true risk management (hedging)

12 HOW DATA IS COLLECTED With price assessments, not all information can be taken at face value Bids, offers and transactions in Heard & Intra-day pages Transparent, verifiable price assessments out.

13 HOW DATA IS COLLECTED Transparent: named bids / offers Assessments reflect tradable value (or the traded value) at market close Real-time technology for open price competition Values are based on Market on Close (MOC) principles End of day assessment windows / e- window Assessments based on firm bids/offers and traded activity

14 TRANSPARENCY OF INFORMATION

15 WHY PLATTS? Consistency of methodology across markets Performance tracking of transactions Transparency of information is key Global usage of Platts assessments - 90 IOSCO Oil Benchmarks - assessments used across whole value chain

31 NEW OUTRIGHT JET MIDDLE EAST ASSESSMENTS In response to strong market demand, S&P Global Platts will begin publishing independent price assessments for a range of refined oil products in the Middle East market starting October 3, These new spot price assessments will be labeled as "FOB Fujairah" in Platts publications and databases, and run alongside Platts' existing MOPAG netbacks. The new assessments -- for gasoline, gasoil, jet fuel and fuel oil -- will be published alongside Platts existing physical netback values for these products. The new assessments will reflect trade on a freeon-board basis at good ports across the Gulf, fully normalized to an FOB Fujairah basis. The Middle East has seen substantial growth in refining and storage capacity over the past decade, as well as widespread growth in physical oil trading and market participation. These factors have led to a more vibrant and active spot physical market for oil products, which will be the basis for these assessments. NEW ASSESSMENTS: From October 3, Platts will begin publishing independent, outright assessments on a free-on-board basis for 95 RON gasoline; 10 parts per million sulfur gasoil and 500 ppm gasoil; jet fuel; and 380 CST high sulfur fuel oil.
