Singapore’s bank loans rose to SGD 863.8 billion in September 2025, up from SGD 851.7 billion in August, marking a record high after posting the smallest increase in four months in the previous month.

Singapore Bank Lending Hits Record High

The benchmark KOSPI rose 0.6% to around 4,110 on Friday, hitting fresh record levels, boosted by gains in automakers and chip giant Samsung Electronics. The index is also on track for its fifth straight weekly gain and a nearly 20% increase for the month. Carmaker Hyundai Motors led the charge, climbing over 6% to a three-month high, while its sister-company Kia Corp surged 2.6%, following news that the Korea-US trade deal was finalized to lower tariffs on auto exports to 15%. Shipbuilding stocks also advanced, as the trade deal highlighted shipbuilding and energy as major areas of South Korea’s planned investment in the US. Additionally, chip heavyweight Samsung Electronics jumped 0.8% to a new record-high, while its peer SK Hynix dropped 1.1%. Investor optimism was supported by corporate developments, as leaders from US tech giant Nvidia, Samsung, and Hyundai met in Seoul ahead of a planned announcement on their AI business cooperation.

KOSPI Extends Record Rally

The dollar index held near three-month highs around 99.5 on Friday and was poised to rise nearly 2% for the month as investors dialed back expectations for further Federal Reserve rate cuts. The Fed delivered a widely anticipated quarter-point reduction on Wednesday, but Chair Jerome Powell stressed that another move in December is not guaranteed. Market-implied odds of a December cut fell sharply to about 75% from over 90% before the meeting. Meanwhile, the Trump-Xi meeting ended with the US agreeing to lower tariffs on Chinese goods, while Beijing pledged to curb fentanyl exports, boost US soybean purchases, and pause rare earth export controls. The dollar posted its biggest monthly gains against the yen in October following the election of Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, who favors expansionary fiscal measures and continued loose monetary policy.

Dollar Heads for Monthly Gain

Brent crude oil futures fell to around $64 per barrel on Friday, heading for a third straight monthly decline, pressured by rising global output ahead of the OPEC+ meeting. The cartel is inclined to raise production by 137,000 barrels per day in December as part of its strategy to regain market share. This adds to an already well-supplied market, with Saudi Arabia’s crude exports rising to a six-month high of 6.41 million bpd in August and further gains expected, while the EIA reported record US output of 13.6 million bpd last week. These developments could help offset the impact of recent US sanctions on major Russian oil producers, with investors watching how the measures will affect exports to key buyers. Meanwhile, President Trump said China has agreed to resume purchases of US energy, including a potential large oil and gas deal from Alaska. Elsewhere, a stronger greenback weighed on commodities.
