VIEW PROFILE
2020 has been a challenging year for global economies, businesses and commodities alike. The lockdowns in most parts of the world coupled with the crude oil price crash severely impacted the export and consumption of palm oil in major consuming countries.

Dr. Sundram will give an overview of the impact of these factors on prices and consumption of major edible oils, with special focus on palm oil. He will also give an overview of the three major markets: India, China and EU, and their potential for the import and consumption of palm oil. Malaysian palm oil export performance in 2020, against the background of the Covid-19 pandemic and crude oil price crash will also be presented with an overview of the emerging markets.

Dr. Sundram will give his price projections for palm oil in the second half of 2020 based on the stock usage ratio of global oils and fats. Based on calculations, it is anticipated that there will be continued production growth among all types of oils and fats, however, the demand is likely be slightly lower. The oils and fats production globally will again be led by palm oil which is forecasted as being close to 78 million MT. As the two top palm oil producing countries contributing to 84% of the global palm oil production, Malaysia and Indonesia will be the focus of the international oils and fats trade.
