Indonesia plans to file a WTO complaint in March against EU anti-dumping duties on its biodiesel exports, which range from 8.8% to 20.5%. Indonesia says the duties breach WTO rules and that biodiesel sales to the EU fell from $625 million in 2013 to an expected $9 million in 2017.
The dispute concerns trade barriers on palm-based biodiesel, which affects Indonesian palm oil demand from the EU, though the direct price impact is modest.
After 67 past neutral trade events, Palm Oil moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (51% higher; middle half -1.1% to +1.3%), and +0.6% over 20.
