Publishing dates 2018 Version 4: 27 March 2018
The dates on which weekly reports are not published are listed below, arranged by usual day of publication as specified in the individual report s methodology. When a reporting centre observes a public holiday, the weekly reports due on that day are produced on the preceding business day unless otherwise specified. In Asia and the Middle East, the publishing schedule depends on whether major markets are open in the region. Holiday dates and days of publication may be subject to revision. Daily reports, or contributions to global reports, are produced by regional reporting centres (Houston, London, Singapore and Shanghai) on the corresponding public holiday unless otherwise specified (refer to Daily reports section below). Shared CFR China quotes in the China (Domestic) and Asia Pacific reports are not assessed during China s major public holidays, which are subject to change owing to possible revisions by the Chinese government. However, wider coverage by the Asia Pacific reports will continue. Subscribers will be alerted in advance through a note in the reports.
