PRICING NOTICE: Amendment to minimum quantity in Turkish export HRC price specification

Following a consultation period, Fastmarkets will change the minimum tonnage of its weekly price assessments for steel hot-rolled coil for export, fob main port Turkey, to a minimum of 2,000 tonnes (with no set maximum), from the current 500-1,000 tonnes, with effect from Monday August 24.

The price subject to the change is MB-STE-0107 Steel hot-rolled coil, export, fob main port Turkey, $ per tonne.

The change follows a consultation period that ran from July 21 to August 21.

The adjustment of the specification will bring the assessment into line with recent changes seen in the market – specifically, an increase in the average cargo size.
