Government gears up for war against inflation

MAS will allow SGD to strengthen further to combat inflationary pressures.

In a statement, Second Finance Minister Lim Hwee Hua said, MAS would strengthen the SGD if necessary to limit the impact of rising prices. According to OCBC, these comments will only work towards heightening expectations of a further tightening by the monetary authority as its next Monetary Policy Statement in April 2011.

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.
