Market Chatter: Singapore to Likely Adjust Monetary Policy Amid Recession Fears

MT Newswires04-13

Singapore is likely to tighten its monetary policy at its April 14 review, amid global recession fears, according to a report by Bloomberg News on Monday.

Citing a survey in which 15 out of 18 economists expected the Monetary Authority of Singapore to tighten its policy, the report said that the country's reliance on imported energy exposes it to the crisis in the Middle East.

With fuel, transport and electricity costs rising, businesses are likely to face higher input prices, the report added.

The MAS is also expected to update its inflation outlook, with the Ministry of Trade slated to release its latest report on economic performance during the first quarter of the year on Tuesday, the report noted.
