South Korea's industrial production up 0.4%

On the back of better-than-expected GDP.

According to BBVA Research, South Korea June industrial production expands by 0.4% m/m, s.a., in line with consensus expectations, from -0.1% the previous month.

Here's more:

The June IP outturn comes after last week’s better-than-expected preliminary Q2 GDP of 1.1% q/q, s.a.. We maintain our projection of 2.7% for full-year growth in 2013 and expect the Bank of Korea (BOK) to cut interest rates by another 25 bps in the coming months in view of headwinds to growth.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
