期货和衍生品行业监管动态

关于政府是否会考虑采取更有针对性的措施来控制食品和住房价格的问题。

在食品方面，贸易和工业部长在 2022 年 10 月曾谈到，新元升值、新加坡食品供

应来源的多样化以及政府对低收入和弱势新加坡公民提供的援助，将缓解全球食

品价格上涨带来的影响。

在住房价格方面，新加坡国家发展部（Ministry of National Development）、

新加坡建屋发展局（Housing Development Board）和 MAS 已经采取措施，促进

房地产市场的可持续发展。政府还为市场发放补贴，以确保新建政府组屋（HDB

flats）的价格维持在可负担的水平，并增加了公共和私人住房市场的供应量。

Reply to Parliamentary Question on the Need for More Monetary Policy

Tightening and Targeted Measures to Rein in Food and Accommodation Prices
(2022/11/9)

Question:

To ask the Prime Minister in light of Singapore’s core inflation at 5.3% in

September 2022 being at the highest since November 2008 (a) whether Singapore will

consider tightening its monetary policy again; and (b) whether the Government will

consider more targeted measures to rein in food and accommodation prices.

Answer by Mr Alvin Tan, Minister of State, Ministry of Trade and Industry and

Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth, and Board member of MAS, on behalf of

Mr Tharman Shanmugaratnam, Senior Minister and Minister in charge of MAS:

MAS began tightening monetary policy in October 2021. It was among the

earlier central banks in the world to do so, at a time when the pickup in global

inflation was still quite modest. In October, it tightened monetary policy for a fifth

time in the last 13 months, by re-centring up the mid-point of the Singapore dollar
nominal effective exchange rate (S$NEER) policy band.
