Analysts see clearer signs of a pick-up next year: MAS survey
Singapore
HOPES of an economic boost from fiscal stimulus have dimmed, even as global trade tensions continue to weigh on the growth outlook, according to the latest quarterly survey of private-sector analysts by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS).
Still, signalling more certainty, watchers have tightened the forecast for the new year: Singapore's growth in 2020 is now tipped to fall between 1.5 per cent and 1.9 per cent - narrower than the one per cent to 1.9 per cent range in September's poll.
