SINGAPORE’S central bank left its monetary policy settings unchanged in April, extending the pause for the fourth straight meeting, in line with market expectations.
The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) also left its headline and core inflation projections unchanged: both are expected to average between 2.5 and 3.5 per cent this year.
MAS said on Friday (Apr 12) that it will maintain the prevailing rate of appreciation of the Singapore dollar nominal effective exchange rate (S$NEER) policy band, with no change to its width and the level at which it is centred.
