Trading strategy pushed for plantation sector amidst ‘uncertainties’: RHB

With the ban on exports of CPO and its derivatives in Indonesia, supply and demand fundamentals are even tighter in the short term.

But RHB said markets need to address the risks once the Indonesia export ban is lifted and the Russia-Ukraine war ends.

It said stock levels in Ukraine and Indonesia could build up, vegetable oil supply will be abundant and vegetable oil prices will decline.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
