【𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐟】June 14, 2025|Indonesia–EU Trade Deal Nears Completion

Indonesia and the EU are close to finalizing a major free trade agreement, after nine years of negotiations since talks began in 2016.

👉 Key highlights:
• Covers 80% of Indonesia’s exports to the EU — including nickel, rubber, seafood, and garments
• Set to ease export rules on critical minerals
• Includes green trade and sustainability standards

📊 Market response:
• Nickel futures rise to $23,410/ton
• PT Vale Indonesia up 4.6%
• European clean tech firms looking to strengthen sourcing in Southeast Asia

🧭 If signed, this FTA could reshape regional supply chains and reinforce Indonesia’s role as an export-driven hub.
