History of Singapore Dollar

Singapore established the Board of Commissioners of Currency, on April 7, 1967, and issued its first coins and notes. The Singapore dollar remained exchangeable at par with the Malaysian ringgit until 1973 when it was pegged to the British sterling pound. After the demise of the sterling pound until 1985 the Singapore dollar was pegged against a fixed a trade-weighted basket of currencies. Beginning in 1985, Singapore adopted a market-oriented exchange policy monitored by the newly created Monetary Authority of Singapore or MAS. The MAS continue to set monetary policy for the Singapore dollar today. The MAS allows the dollar to float against a basket of currencies representing Singapore's trading partners and competitors. Singapore dollars are fully backed by government assets to ensure public confidence in the dollar. The MAS policies allow the Singapore government to maintain control over inflation while at the same time ensuring Singapore's exports remain competitive.

In the past, many North American and European investors found banking in Singapore difficult due to the physical distance from their home country, and the requirement imposed by most banks there that opening and managing an account had to be done face-to-face in the country. As more multinational banks open branch offices in Singapore, the requirement that investors physically be in Singapore is changing. Today, the multinational banks are able to provide investors with accounts in Singapore and financial advisors and account managers not very far from the account holder's home. These multinational banks also offer investors a diversified investment strategy including contingency plans to shift investor's accounts to a different jurisdiction, within the same bank, on short notice, if a particular jurisdiction becomes financially unstable for any reason.

Not all Singapore banks offer the same range of services. If you are considering an investment in Singapore you need to work with a financial professional familiar with the Singapore banks or with a bank you are an account holder with at home that has branch offices in Singapore.
