In line with global trends, local residents expect stable inflation in the coming year

DBS Group and SMU's Sim Kee Boon Institute for Financial Economics (SKBI) released the 53rd Singapore Index of Inflation Expectations (SInDEx) on 22 Oct. The survey, based on interviews with about 500 people, showed that inflation expectations for the coming year remained steady at 3.8% in September 2024, unchanged from June. Though inflation expectations have declined since June 2023, they remain above the 3.4% average since the index's launch in 2011. SMU Assistant Professor Aurobindo Ghosh, who is the founding Principal Investigator of the Quarterly DBS-SKBI SInDEx Project, noted that despite economic uncertainty, inflation expectations have stabilised, helped by the strong Singapore dollar.
