China avoids being called 'currency manipulator'

The US Treasury declined to label China as such.

OCBC Treasury Research noted:

The US Treasury declined to name China as currency manipulator in its semi annual report despite it believed that China’s currency remained undervalued. The report said China has significantly reduced its intervention in foreign exchange markets and loosened capital control.

The OECD lowered its 2013 GDP forecast for China to 8.5% from previously 9.3%, still above market consensus.

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.
