# Palm oil rises by more than 2% as Indonesia extends export curbs - Markets - Business Recorder

> Malaysian palm oil futures rose 2.5% to 3,780 ringgit on November 2 after Indonesia confirmed it would keep its domestic market obligation export policy through 2024. Indian edible oil imports in October fell to a 16-month low as refiners cut purchases amid high stocks. Crude oil gains also supported palm as a biodiesel feedstock.

## Why it matters

Indonesia's export curbs tighten global palm supply, supporting prices into 2024. Weaker Indian buying offsets some of that support by raising stocks in producing countries.

| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| PALMOIL | 2023-11-01 | 1 | +2.8% | 3.1 | Indonesia's confirmed export policy and firmer crude oil lifted Malaysian palm futures about 2.5% on Nov 2, but this is dated a day after the Nov 1 move, so it likely reflects continuation or the same drivers rather than the cause. |
