Singapore Outlook: Better Growth Prospects, But Inflation Is Here to Stay
In light of a better-than-expected Q1 performance, we have revised up our growth forecast for 2012 and 2013, though we remain cautious, since exports may suffer from subpar global conditions and slower Chinese economic expansion. Inflation will remain above the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s (MAS) comfort zone until Q3, but will taper off in Q4, supported by favorable base effects. Given sticky inflation, we see the MAS maintaining its current stance of “slightly steeper appreciation” (at 3%), in the next policy meeting in October.
