Singapore

INFLATION in Singapore is expected to remain at low levels for the year, a trend which DBS chief economist Taimur Baig has said is "consistent with the continuation of accommodating fiscal and monetary policy" this year and the next.

The bank on Monday published the findings of the latest quarterly survey for the Singapore Index of Inflation Expectations (SInDEx), released jointly with the Singapore Management University (SMU).
