MAS extends $80b swap agreement with US Fed

Its USD Facility will also be extended to end-September 2021.

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has extended its $80b (US$60b) swap arrangement with the US Federal Reserve through 30 September 2021, a statement read.

The MAS USD Facility will also be extended to 30 September 2021.

Since launching in March, the facility has provided about $30.5b (US$23b) to banks, for use in Singapore and the region. The extension of the MAS USD Facility will continue to promote stability in USD funding conditions and anchor market confidence, the regulator said.

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.
