SINGAPORE, April 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Jim Rogers and Beeland Interests, Inc. announce that the Rogers International Commodity Index Enhanced (RICI Enhanced®) SingleCommodity Crude Oil Index will roll on April 27, 2020 in lieu of its ordinary roll on May 12, 2020 specified for such Index in the Rogers International Commodity Index Enhanced SingleCommodity Grains and Energy Index Guide. This decision to advance the roll two weeks is taken in light of recent Crude Oil price volatility in an effort to help reduce or avoid unintended effects of very small or negative Crude Oil contract pricing on the Index. Other than as stated above, the RICI Enhanced SingleCommodity Crude Oil Index roll will proceed as the Index Guide provides for its ordinary Index roll. Each of the RICI Enhanced indices reliant on the RICI Enhanced SingleCommodity Crude Oil Index shall be calculated taking this RICI Enhanced SingleCommodity Crude Oil Index roll into account.
