Indonesian commodities exchange to begin trading in September
Deddy Saleh, head of the Trade Ministry's Commodity Futures Exchange Supervisory Board (Baapebti), says the ICDX will make futures trading more dynamic. "We're a producing country so it's time for us to have a reliable commodity market," he said.
Indonesia is the largest producer of palm oil in the world, and also produces vast amounts of tin, cocoa and coffee. ICDX will become Indonesia's second futures exchange, after the Jakarta Futures Exchange (JFX) started trading last month.
