By Ross Yeo

Fastmarkets calculated the steel billet index export, fob Black Sea, CIS at $392 per tonne on Monday March 9. The index was published in Fastmarkets’ pricing database, MInD, later than scheduled, however, due to a technical error.

Fastmarkets’ price book and database have both since been updated.

To provide feedback on the delayed publication, please contact Vlada Novokreshchenova by email at: pricing@fastmarkets.com. Please add the subject heading ‘FAO: Vlada Novokreshchenova Re: Fastmarkets’ CIS export billet index.’
