Portuguese term or phrase: extinção do IPCA/IBGE

Hello everyone,

I am not sure what would be the best term in English for extinção in the following context...I don't think extinction would be appropriate..

Thanks!

should the IPCA/IBGE cease to exist

Explanation:
The IPCA/IBGE is one of the many inflation indexes calculated by entities in Brazil. Normally when a contract specifies the use of one of these indexes for adustment of values, it specifies what will happen if that particular index ceases to exist, as has often happened in the past when new indexes are created.

INPC = Índice Nacional de Preços ao Consumidor Amplo = Broad National Consumer Price Index. This index is widely used as a general inflation index.

IBGE = Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística = Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (a federal government agency)
