Abstract

Nickel downstream in Indonesia was started in 2020. In international trade, nickel downstream means non-tariff trade barriers in the form of nickel ore exports ban. This study aims to examine the impact of nickel downstream on Indonesia's nickel export foreign exchange, characteristics of export volumes, export revenues, investment, and company performance. The research used secondary data from 2017 to Q1 2024 and primary data from in-depth interviews with the Directorate General of Customs and Excise and Nickel Companies. The analysis method was a mixed method, quantitative descriptive and regression, and qualitative interpretative. The results of the study showed the increasing export foreign exchange, the decreasing amount of net exports but it had added value, the increasing investment in the mining sector, and the decreasing export revenues due to fiscal facilities. The performance of nickel companies increased both public and private companies. Nickel downstream, Export Volume, and Investment have shown a significant effect on export foreign exchange. Based on the research findings, several suggestions related to the Indonesian nickel industry are a long-term roadmap from upstream to downstream nickel processing, and implementation of taxation in the export sector because the current downstream products are still middle products
