        "summary": "PT Danantara Sumber Daya Indonesia (DSI) has clarified its imposition of margin fees on exporters of three strategic commodities: coal, palm oil, and ferroalloy. The state-owned company says the fee is necessary to cover operational costs and is set at a reasonable level that does not burden exporters. The margin calculation is still being finalised in consultation with relevant parties.",
        "content": "<p>PT Danantara Sumber Daya Indonesia (DSI) has spoken out regarding the\nimposition of margins or profit-taking from the service products it\noffers. In this case, DSI plays a role in providing facilities for\nexporters and buyers of three strategic commodities: coal, palm oil, and\nferroalloy.<\/p>\n<p>DSI Finance Director Sinthya Roesly acknowledged that DSI, as a\nlimited liability company (PT), has operational costs. It therefore\nrequires funds to operate or carry out its role as a state-owned\nstrategic commodity export institution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor pricing, the regulations allow DSI to do this because we are\nalso a PT. As a PT, there is certainly a cost recovery because there has\nbeen capital injection; it cannot be allowed to make a loss,\u201d she said\nat Wisma Danantara on Monday (24\/8\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>Sinthya stressed that the margin or profit charged is a reasonable\nfigure. \u201cThere are costs incurred, and of course there is a reasonable\nmargin, a fair one, that DSI can obtain,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>She emphasised that determining and calculating the margin fee does\nnot burden exporters. In addition, the determination of the margin\nfigure is still being consulted with relevant parties.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is currently being calculated with principles such as\nefficiency and not adding costs to exporters,\u201d she said.<\/p>",
