Governance reform could change how levy funds flow to biodiesel, affecting domestic palm oil demand, but the effect on prices is speculative at this stage.
After 513 past neutral policy events, Palm Oil moved a median 0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -1.6% to +1.4%), and -0.1% over 20.
