Singapore dollar trades at $1.2206

Fiscal cliff issue remains the biggest factor.

IG Markets Singapore said:

The Singapore dollar trades at $1.2206 this morning against the greenback having moved very little as traders assess the likelihood of a fiscal cliff being struck before the end of the month.

Uncertainty rules the roost and this plays against traders who are finding it hard to stay in the market.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
