How this development reaches the affected companies
| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| BRENT CRUDE | A reopening tied to multiple unresolved conditions leaves the physical supply route exposed to continued disruption. | Up1-5d | Iranian officials said reopening depended on satisfaction of Tehran's conditions, while Reuters reported that shipping through Hormuz had been drastically reduced. |
| IRANIAN CRUDE EXPORTS | Continued US sanctions and the unresolved blockade constrain Iran's ability to export petroleum normally. | Down1-4w | The proposed deal required Washington to waive oil sanctions and lift its naval blockade before the reopening timetable could proceed. |
| BNO TANKER FREIGHT INDEX | Uncertainty over reopening sustains rerouting, delay and insurance costs for Gulf tanker traffic. | Up1-4w | Reuters reported sharply reduced shipping through Hormuz amid the US-Iran confrontation. |
