The Malaysian Palm Oil Council says the reinstated crude palm oil export tax starting in January is unlikely to hurt EU demand. EU imports from Malaysia reached about 2.2 million tonnes so far this year, versus 1.91 million for all of 2018.
The council expects some reduced CPO shipments to India but says overall impact will be limited.
The council's view that demand will hold limits the downside from Malaysia's export tax, leaving palm prices supported by steady EU and Indian buying. Possible CPO shipment shifts to India add some pricing pressure.
