April 2013 FIDE Rating List
FIDE have published the latest official rating list, for April 2013.
Since the lists are now published monthly, there are sometimes very few changes from one list to the next, and this is certainly one of those occasions.
The Candidates Tournament is still on-going so is not included in calculations for the ratings here. For the latest 'live' ratings of the 2700+ Elo players, see 2700chess.com.
