Bird & Bird discusses EUDR obligations for cocoa supply chain data, noting the rules apply in all member states from December 30, 2024. It highlights concerns about obtaining the necessary supply chain data for due diligence and reporting.
Data and compliance burdens tied to EUDR may slow or reshape trade in deforestation-linked commodities, mainly affecting cocoa but with spillover to soy and palm oil sourcing decisions.
After 554 past neutral policy events, SOY moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (51% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.6%), and +0.6% over 20.
After 513 past neutral policy events, PALMOIL moved a median 0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -1.6% to +1.4%), and -0.1% over 20.
Moves of each commodity's benchmark from the last close before the event. Historical reads pool past events of the same kind; they describe what happened, not what will. Not investment advice.
