Chart of the Day: MAS Core Inflation remains at 2.7%

Excluding the costs of accommodation and private road transport, MAS Core Inflation was stable for the third consecutive month.

The Monetary Authority of Singapore and the Ministry of Trade and Industry reported:

Reflecting the effects of government rebates, inflation as measured by CPI less imputed rentals on OOA (CPI-ex OOA) edged up to 4.4% in June from 4.0% in the preceding month.

Excluding the costs of accommodation and private road transport, MAS Core Inflation was stable at 2.7% for the third consecutive month, as the lower contribution from prices of food, services and oil-related items was offset by stronger y-o-y increases in prices of retail products such as clothing & footwear.

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.
