OPAP enjoyed improved momentum in Q224 driven by the ongoing innovation of its core products in both retail and online, and the anticipated boost from the UEFA European Football Championship 2024.

OPAP also announced the award of the exclusive licence (...

Benchmark refining margins rose in July, by USD 0.7/bbl, to USD 9.5/bbl, after four straight months of decline remaining about USD 1.9/bbl higher than usual for the season. Better petrol cracks were the main driver of margins and we believe that this may be temporary. Petrochemicals margins remain under pressure.

Benchmark refining margins retreated again in June, by USD 1.9/bbl to USD 9.5/bbl, remaining about USD 1.4/bbl higher than is usual for the season. The decline was due to weaker petrol cracks, driven by increases in supply, we believe. There was little to report in petrochemicals, with margins mostly flat or down slightly.
