Singapore dollar weakens for third day

MAS policy review is coming up.

According to UOB Global Economics & Markets Research, the Singapore dollar index is seen hovering within +/-0.5% around the midpoint. It said this implies USD/SGD range of 1.3453-1.3589.

Here’s more from UOB:

SGD weakened against the USD for the third day as the MAS policy review comes into view, with a decline of 0.3% to 1.3556/USD late Tue, with the downtrend largely intact through the session, hitting low of 1.3593 in Asia, the weakest level since 29 Mar.

The SGD NEER index also eased off further, to 0.2% below the midpoint this morning, from -0.1% on Tue. No date confirmed yet for the MAS policy review next week, although we could narrow it down to either Wed or Thur (13 or 14 Apr) as the authorities typically announce one week ahead of the actual release date.

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.
