Singapore dollar gave back early gains on Friday to finish slightly lower, USD/SGD fell as low as 1.3565 before recovering to hit intraday highs of 1.3618 and closing at 1.3607. The pair last down 8 pips at 1.3599.

The Ministry of Health said the overall number of new cases in the community has increased from 324 in the week before to 1,056 cases in the past week.
