Final decision on open consultation on methodology for European Graphic Paper: pricing notice

Fastmarkets invited feedback from the industry on the pricing methodology for European Graphic Paper via an open consultation process between August 8, 2024 and September 5, 2024. This consultation was done as part of our published annual methodology review process.

No feedback was received during the consultation period and therefore no changes will be made to the methodology at this stage.

This consultation sought to ensure that our methodology continues to reflect the physical market under indexation, in compliance with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) principles for Price Reporting Agencies (PRAs). This includes all elements of our pricing process, our price specifications and publication frequency.
