Singapore authorities support protection of financial system stability

The discussion tackles measures which are said to include both macro supervision and micro measures to handle the anticipated increase in flows of capital into the region.

According to OCBC, BI Deputy Governor Halim Alamsyah said on Frday that authorities from Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Philippnes have agreed to discuss over possible coordinated measures to tackle the threat of capital inflows.

As expressed in the recent G-20 meeting, and also supported by recent comments by IMF and the World bank, the possibility of more stringent (albeit temporary) capital controls are now thought to be beneficial to protect the financial system stability of a country or a region in this case.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
