China property prices rise for fifth consecutive month

Government on standby to act against overheating.

BBVA notes that the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) has released official data over the weekend which showed China's housing prices increased by 0.11% m/m in October, after a 0.05% increase in September, marking the fifth consecutive month prices have risen.

"For China, rising housing prices may present a constraint on further monetary easing (currently, the benchmark policy rate is 6.0%). Worth noting, during last week’s 18th National Party Congress, Housing Minister Jiang Weixin said that the government will maintain close watch over the property sector in the near future, as policymakers want to avoid overheating," said BBVA.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
