RSPO suspension may see IOI customers switch to other suppliers


The palm oil contract for June delivery on the Bursa Malaysia Derivatives Exchange fell 1.1 percent to reach 2,639 ringgit ($681) per tonne at the closing trade. Traded volumes were 43,083 lots of 25 tonnes each, versus a 2015 daily average of 44,600 lots
