    THE Singdollar rose to S$1.4057 on Friday from Thursday's S$1.4149 on continued US dollar weakness on realisation that US President Donald Trump's tax reforms will take time and also because expectations of a March interest-rate hike by the US Federal Reserve fade.

    The three-month Sibor, or Singapore interbank offered rate, fell - it lost 0.001 to 0.93905 per cent on Friday. The mortgage benchmark rate has been weakening since it reached a year high of 0.98521 per cent on Feb 13.
