How this development reaches the affected companies
| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| BRENT CRUDE | Acceptance could restore transit and reduce the supply premium, while rejection preserves the disruption; the proposal was conditional and not accepted. | Watch1-5d | Iran offered a seven-day reopening timetable subject to U.S. concessions, and Trump subsequently rejected the proposal. |
| BDTI TANKER INDEX | A verified reopening could lower route-risk and tanker-rate premia, but no reopening occurred. | Watch1-5d | Iran linked reopening of the waterway to fulfillment of specified U.S. conditions. |
