Japanese aluminium buyers have agreed to pay global producers a premium of $172/t for July to September shipments, up 18% from the previous quarter, sources said. This is higher than the $145-$148/t paid in April-June but lower than initial offers of $175-$190. These premiums set the regional benchmark over the LME cash price.
