United States Brent Oil Fund LP
The fund's primary benchmark is a specific Brent crude oil futures contract traded on the Ice Futures Europe Exchange. This typically refers to the contract closest to its expiry date. However, if this front-month contract is fewer than two weeks away from expiration, the fund will instead reference the futures contract scheduled to expire in the subsequent month.
