The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has tightened its monetary policy settings, a move that aligns with market expectations as the city-state prepares for elevated core inflation in the coming quarters. The central bank announced on Tuesday that it will slightly increase the rate of appreciation of the S$NEER policy band, while maintaining the current width and center level of the band.
