Indonesia has not yet decided whether to cut the maximum allowable foreign equity in local plantation ventures from 95%, with a suggested 30% cap excluded from the recently passed plantations bill. Industry experts say the limit is still under consideration and could be set at no less than 51%.
A foreign equity cap would affect Malaysian planters operating in Indonesia and could shape future palm oil output and investment, a longer-term supply consideration with limited near-term price effect.
