Asian currencies to look towards the CNY for further cues

The regional pairs may continue to remain adrift, says OCBC Treasury Research.

OCBC Treasury Research noted:

With regards to USD-Asia, the regional pairs may continue to remain adrift, buffeted by global undercurrents although the outperformance by the regional currencies against the EUR may remain more prominent at this juncture.

Elsewhere, Asian currencies are also expected to look towards the CNY for further cues, and any further deepening of slowdown concerns are likely to keep the USD-CNY aloft within its permitted fluctuation band.

Overall, although net capital flows into Asia remain reluctant and we remain inherently positive on Asia, more mileage may be had from selected Asian-crosses instead.

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.
