About Trade-Weighted Index (NEER) (SGD)

The trade-weighted index (TWI) for Singapore measures the sgd's value against a basket of currencies weighted by bilateral trade volumes. It gives a broader read of currency strength than any single bilateral rate.

Why FX traders watch it

The Monetary Authority of Singapore monitors the TWI when assessing imported inflation and the competitiveness of Singapore's export sector. A strong TWI can reduce import inflation but also reduce export competitiveness.

How to interpret the data

A rising TWI means the sgd is strengthening in trade-weighted terms, reducing import costs but potentially weighing on export growth. The Monetary Authority of Singapore may reference TWI levels in communications about currency policy.
