All price assessments are carried out by experienced analysts who have a rich understanding of the markets that they are covering. We treat dialogue with market participants as confidential, and no details are shared with third parties. We also regularly carry out consultations with the market about its methodology to ensure it accurately reflects the underlying commodity market and latest regulations.
Our policies, processes and methodologies have been designed to follow IOSCO Principles (International Organization of Securities Commissions). For our published Chinese Prices, our policies and processes adhere to the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) rules.
