Goldman Sachs: Singapore's inflation may continue to perform well in the future

Goldman Sachs economists said after the October CPI data was released that overall inflation and core inflation in Singapore may continue to perform well in the future. Goldman Sachs stated that coupled with the slowing momentum of strong growth in the third quarter, the Monetary Authority of Singapore may slightly lower the nominal effective exchange rate (NEER) policy range of the Singapore dollar in April 2025. The Monetary Authority of Singapore does not have an inflation target, but on average, the core inflation rate slightly below 2% is consistent with price stability in the economy.
