May 21 — According to Indonesian Ministry of Trade meeting materials, Indonesia plans to bring ferroalloy exports under its strategic natural resources export framework. Ferroalloy exports are expected to enter a transition period from June 1 to August 31, 2026, before being handled by a designated state-owned enterprise from September 1.
