MNI MAS Preview: October 2021- Wait and See

Executive Summary:

  • The MAS are expected to keep policy settings on hold at the upcoming meeting, allowing time for the recovery to gain a firmer footing and assess the impact of any upcoming FOMC action.
  • Rising inflation could be concern for the MAS, but an uneven recovery as evidenced by uncertainty in the labour market likely outweighs those concerns
  • The MAS will likely signal a hawkish outlook for the next meeting scheduled for October 2022
  • GDP data, released on the same day, will allow markets to assess progress towards the pre-pandemic growth path.
