Outlook for USD-SGD remains on the downside

The Singapore dollar may continue to garner support from cited safe haven asset allocations, says OCBC.

OCBC Treasury Research noted:

The SGD NEER is noticeably stronger this morning at around 0.53% above its perceived parity (1.2625) with the extreme strong end of the NEER fluctuation band estimated at around 1.2380.

The SGD may continue to garner support from cited safe haven asset allocations while on the policy front, the MAS reiterated that its current policy remains appropriate for now.

Meanwhile, the outlook for the USD-SGD remains tilted south for now with the 100-day MA (1.2634) expected to be an interim ceiling with risks skewed towards 1.2525 and then 1.2500 if risk appetite levels manage to improve further today.

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.
