In addition, this year is proving to be a difficult year for the economy and a tricky one for policy makers. In contrast to past years, Singapore will be home to the weakest growth and one of the highest inflation rates in Southeast Asia. More specifically, Singapore is struggling with stagflation.

Against this background, there is scope for the MAS to shift to a more accommodative monetary stance when it meets in October. As the US continues to slow and the EU crisis remains anything but resolved, the odds of such action are on the rise.

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.
