Oil output increase a potential bane


PETALING JAYA: Corporate Malaysia’s fiscal position may come under pressure if the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies (Opec+) decide to further open the taps to boost oil output.

Although Opec+ has agreed for now to keep its output policy unchanged, analysts opined that another production increase of 411,000 barrels per day in July is likely, matching the additional output in May and June.
