Singtel an unlikely winner on back of increased forex volatility

Regional currencies remain robust versus the greenback.

Singtel will get a positive boost from the fluctuation in foreign exchange rates, a report by UOB Kay Hian stated.

According to the report, Singtel is backed by the strength of most ASEAN currencies, most of which have appreciated against the Singapore dollar.

“Indonesian Rupiah, Indian Rupee, Thai Baht and Philippine Peso have appreciated 1.4%, 5.1%, 3.1% and 3.7% respectively against the Singapore Dollar. More importantly, the Australian Dollar, which has depreciated against the Singapore Dollar over the past five months, experienced its first day of genuine rebound of 1.7% yesterday,” stated the report.

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.
