“As the Industry and Market are changing on a daily basis, the impact is that much greater; therefore, having the CRU Index is a must have for both sellers and buyers of steel, in order to make a sound and robust decision.”

What are the benefits of taking a license?

  1. Avoid copyright infringement:
    Sharing CRU price data without a license is illegal. Ensure that you are compliant by taking a license.
  2. Competitive edge:
    Ensure that your clients receive the benefits of the license through your organization – and not one of your competitors – engendering their loyalty.
  3. Cost effective:
    If you have a client base who would benefit from seeing CRU’s U.S. steel price index data every week, a license fee offers excellent value for money – and we do not charge a license fee for any of your clients who already subscribe to CRU.
  4. Speed and transparency:
    We disseminate our U.S. steel price index data to your customers at the same time as we send them to you

How much does a license cost?

This depends on:

  1. Which indices you wish to license
  2. How many of your clients you want to share with
