Threats of global liquidity squeeze hurt bank stocks

DBS and OCBC shares, for instance, dropped more than 1% on 9 September 2011.

“Singapore banks like DBS also fell, after CIMB Research downgraded the sector to neutral from overweight, on concerns that a global liquidity squeeze could hurt them. DBS shares were 1.1 percent lower at S$12.89 while Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp lost 1.2 percent at S$8.55,” noted a Reuters report.

The report said, “Singapore shares slipped 0.4 percent by midday on Friday, weighed by losses in property and bank stocks as risk-averse investors took profit after the U.S. President Barack Obama's speech on a jobs package failed to excite the markets.”

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.
