Indonesia's palm oil export levy fund (BPDP Kelapa Sawit) collected about Rp 14 trillion in 2018 and disbursed roughly Rp 11 trillion. Around 70% of the 2018 allocation was targeted at biodiesel subsidies, with 22% for replanting.
The agency has not yet received 2019 allocation guidance.
Large levy-funded biodiesel allocations support domestic palm oil demand and sustain Indonesian production incentives. The 2019 allocation decision will influence the outlook for biodiesel blending demand.
After 548 past bullish policy events, Palm Oil moved a median +0.4% over 5 sessions (61% higher; middle half -0.7% to +2.1%), and +0.9% over 20.
