“After a recent extension, the OPEC + agreement will enter its fourth year — an unusually long period of production cuts. This prevents further overproduction, but at the expense of a significant market share for OPEC. If history can serve as a guide, this leads to a decrease in oil prices than growth ", - the bank’s experts say.
September futures for Brent crude on the London ICE Futures Exchange rose by $ 0.48 (0.77%) to $ 62.88 a barrel.
WTI crude oil futures for August on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) by this time rose $ 0.43 (0.76%) to $ 56.68 a barrel.
