Grab’s Indonesia Shock: Driver-Fee Cap Hits GRAB Stock Days Before Earnings
Indonesia cut the maximum commission for ride-hailing platforms to 8% from 20%, directly affecting Grab and GoTo’s Gojek days before Grab’s earnings report. Drivers must now receive at least 92% of fares, and platforms are required to provide accident and health insurance. Grab and GoTo said they are reviewing the rule and will comply. Grab shares fell 3.9% to $3.67 after the announcement.
