HODOLOGY ABOUT PARTNNEoRvSember 2019 October 2019 While examining IndoAgri facilities, which included one palm oil mill and three September 2019 palm oil estates, the RSPO found more than 20 violations of its standards and August 2019 ten violations of Indonesian labor laws, including gender discrimination, low July 2019 pay and poor safety conditions. Despite these findings, units of Lonsom not June 2019 subject to the complaint are still certified to sell RSPO-certified palm oil, and May 2019 they will be audited within the next three months. April 2019 The Salim Group runs First Pacific, which owns a majority stake in PT Indofood March 2019 Sukses Makmur Tbk (Indofood), Indonesia’s largest food company. The February 2019 company is listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Singapore-listed IndoAgri, January 2019 a vertically integrated palm oil producer, is a subsidiary of Indofood. December 2018 November 2018 Since the initial complaint, RAN, OPPUK and ILRF further exposed IndoAgri’s October 2018 violations in subsequent reports. In February 2017, Chain Reaction Research September 2018 (CRR) showed that 42 percent of IndoAgri’s landbank may be contested due to August 2018 environmental abuses, community conflicts, land tenure risks, or a lack of July 2018 transparent boundaries. In April 2018, CRR partner Aidenvironment updated its June 2018 report of ongoing deforestation at plantation companies linked to the Salim May 2018 Group despite the Indonesian government implementing new regulations, April 2018 finding that 9,534 hectares had been cleared in five years. February 2018 Indofood and its subsidiaries have experienced negative eects from these January 2018 controversies. PepsiCo suspended both direct and indirect purchases of palm December 2017 oil from IndoAgri this year, and Nestlé ended it joint venture with Indofood in November 2017 October 2018. Other buyers such as Hershey’s, Kellogg’s, General Mills, October 2017 Unilever, Mars and Cargill have also cut ties with the company. The Norwegian September 2017 Government Pension Global Fund, the largest sovereign wealth fund in the August 2017 world, divested from Indofood in 2016 because of worries about sustainability July 2017 surrounding palm oil production. June 2017 May 2017 Moving forward, the company faces increasing material, financial and April 2017 reputational risks from its labor practices being exposed. Customer market March 2017 power through NDPE policies and a more active Indonesian government will February 2017 likely increase pressure on Indofood and its subsidiaries.

Despite halting purchases from IndoAgri, PepsiCo is September 2016 continuing its JV with Indofood, the only producer of PepsiCo products in August 2016 Indonesia. July 2016 June 2016 Banks lending to Indofood will also likely play a major role in influencing the May 2016 company’s actions moving forward. RAN has called on banks to cancel all April 2016 financing to Indofood immediately. Major financiers of Indofood and the wider March 2016 Salim Group include Japan’s three largest banks: Mizuho Financial Group, February 2016 Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (MUFG), and SMBC Group, as well as Indonesia’s December 2015 Bank Central Asia and Bank Mandiri. Some banks have already reduced their November 2015 exposure to Indofood. Citigroup, earlier this year, said it is no longer lending to October 2015 IndoAgri and also cancelled an existing loan, while BNP Paribas now only September 2015 maintains a relationship with Indofood’s parent company First August 2015 Pacific. Deutsche Bank has stopped lending to Indofood and the wider Salim July 2015 Group. With more banks using RSPO membership as a benchmark to measure June 2015 companies’ sustainability policies, their decisions will be critical in determining May 2015 whether Indofood sees increasing financial risks from its violations.

  • Citigroup Cancels Financing of Indofood Over Palm Oil Labor Abuses
    Wednesday| June 19 2019 Citigroup Cancels Financing Of Indofood Over Palm Oil Labor Abuses Major Asian, European banks and US brands still linked to controversial company San Francisco, CA – Citigroup has canceled all financing to Indonesian food giant and agribusiness company Indofood (INDF:IJ) following the company’s ousting from the leading palm oil certification scheme, the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). Indofood’s palm oil subsidiaries were dropped from the RSPO after failing to address over 20 violations of the RSPO standard, as well as 10 violations of Indonesian labor law, both of which were found on Indofood-owned palm oil plantations. Citigroup’s cancellation of $140 million represents the loss of Indofood’s second largest source of funds from a Western bank. However, major Japanese, Indonesian, and European banks, as well as US brands such as Pepsico, continue to do business with Indofood. “We are glad to see Citigroup enforce its policy and cut ties with Indofood, as this company has been flouting Indonesian laws, certification standards and international business norms for far too long,” said Hana Heineken, Senior Campaigner on Responsible Finance with Rainforest Action Network (RAN). “This should send a strong signal to Indofood’s remaining financiers and business partners that Indofood is a bad investment.” The largest food company in Indonesia, Indofood has a market cap of 4 billion USD and is a core company of the Salim Group, which has the second largest oil palm land bank in Indonesia. The RSPO investigation of palm oil plantations operated by Indofood’s subsidiaries was sparked by a complaint against the company, brought by Rainforest Action Network (RAN), International Labor Rights Forum (ILRF) and Indonesian labor rights organization OPPUK in October 2016.

  • Indoagri's New Sustainable Palm Oil Policy Fails To
    INDOAGRI’S NEW SUSTAINABLE PALM OIL POLICY FAILS TO ADDRESS KEY ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE (ESG) RISKS February 2017 Salim Group’s Indofood Agri Resources Ltd (IndoAgri) has published a new “Sustainable Palm Oil Policy” amidst an ongoing RSPO complaint relating to labor rights violations on its palm oil plantations operated by subsidiaries PT. PP London Sumatra Indonesia Tbk. (Lonsum) and PT. Salim Ivomas Pratama Tbk. (Salim Ivomas). Unfortunately, IndoAgri’s policy falls short on addressing key ESG risks such as protecting valuable forests, preventing the exploitation of workers or committing to independent verification of its palm oil suppliers to No Deforestation, No Peatland and No Exploitation (NDPE) principles. Without such policy provisions, IndoAgri’s investors and financiers continue to be exposed to serious ESG risks. Figure 1: Indofood’s company structure IndoAgri, and its controlling companies Indofood and First Pacific (see Figure 1), have extensive direct ties to major financial institutions, investors, joint venture partners and palm oil supply chain customers. Prominent financiers include HSBC, Sumitomo Mitsui Financial, Malayan Banking, Deutsche Bank, Bank Mandiri, Citigroup, Mizuho, Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase, Royal Bank of Scotland, Rabobank, Standard Chartered, BNP Paribas and DBS. More than 200 independent institutional investors are also known to hold significant equity positions in Indofood, with significant shares held by Brandes Investment Partners and Lazard. Key joint venture partners and customers include Pepsico, Nestle, Wilmar and Unilever. These companies share responsibility with IndoAgri in relation to environmental and social violations, and continue to be exposed to serious ESG risks until IndoAgri’s policies and practices are brought into line with responsible palm oil production.

  • 44 BAB IV HASIL PENELITIAN DAN PEMBAHASAN A. Gambaran
    BAB IV HASIL PENELITIAN DAN PEMBAHASAN A. Gambaran Umum Objek Penelitian Pasar modal syariah dapat diartikan sebagai kegiatan dalam pasar modal sebagaimana yang diatur dalam UUPM yang tidak bertentangan dengan prinsip syariah. Penerapan prinsip syariah di pasar modal tentunya bersumberkan pada Al Quran sebagai sumber hukum tertinggi dan Hadits Nabi Muhammad SAW. Selanjutnya, dari kedua sumber hukum tersebut para ulama melakukan penafsiran yang kemudian disebut ilmu fiqih. Salah satu pembahasan dalam ilmu fiqih adalah pembahasan tentang muamalah, yaitu hubungan diantara sesama manusia terkait perniagaan. Berdasarkan itulah kegiatan pasar modal syariah dikembangkan dengan basis fiqih muamalah.Terdapat kaidah fiqih muamalah yang menyatakan bahwa Pada dasarnya, semua bentuk muamalah boleh dilakukan kecuali ada dalil yang mengharamkannya. Konsep inilah yang menjadi prinsip pasar modal syariah di Indonesia.1 Bertransaksi di JII merupakan salah satu bentuk perdagangan yang dibangun berdasarkan atas persaingan, kompetensi dan berorientasi keuntungan (profit oriented). Terkadang para pelaku bisnis di bursa efek telah mengikuti peraturan yang berkaitan dengan jenis akad kesepakatan yang dilakukan, meliputi surat-surat berharga yang mubah (boleh bermuamalah dengannya) dan mereka jauh dari perjudian (spekulasi), pegadaian dan pembiayaan ribawi atau transaksi lainnya yang diharamkan. Disamping itu mereka juga harus berakhlaq dan beretika dengan akhlaq yang benar dan lurus sebagaimana disebutkan berikut:2 1.
