    Forecasts for SGD to USD

     

    The Singapore dollar (SGD) has shown remarkable resilience and strength against the US dollar (USD) recently, reaching levels not seen in nearly a decade. As FX analysts note, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has maintained a hawkish policy stance, signaling an appreciating bias for the SGD. As of late August, the SGD hovered around 1.30 per dollar, marking a gain of approximately 1.5% in 2023, which positions it as one of the strongest currencies in Asia, right behind Malaysia’s ringgit. This bullish outlook for the Singapore dollar is further supported by Prime Minister Lawrence Wong's comments emphasizing its importance in combating inflation, reinforcing the local currency's role as a stabilizing force for the economy.

    How to get a good SGD to USD exchange rate

    There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting Singapore dollar to US dollar:

    1. Shop around for the best SGD/USD exchange rate: Exchange rates can vary significantly between different currency exchange providers, so it's important to compare rates from different sources before making a conversion.
    2. Timing is important: Keep an eye on the SGD/USD rate on currency markets, as exchange rates can fluctuate frequently. Try to make your transactions when the exchange rate is in your favor. You can do this easily with our BER Smart Rate Tracker.
    3. Use a credit/debit or travel card that doesn't charge foreign transaction fees: Some credit cards charge additional fees for transactions made in a foreign currency, so it's important to check with your card issuer to see if they charge these fees and what their exchange rate is.
    4. Use a multi-currency account: Having a multi-currency account allows you to hold and transfer money in both SGD and USD at close to the interbank rate. It also allows you to make payments or withdrawals in the local currency while avoiding high conversion fees.
    5. Buy currency in advance: If you know that you will need foreign currency in the future, consider buying it in advance when the exchange rate is favorable.

    The key is reducing excessive costs and fees

    Generally speaking, if you are buying US dollar with Singapore dollar, then it's better for the SGD/USD exchange rate to be higher.

    However working against you are the fees all foreign exchange providers charge for providing their service. These fees is usually contained within the exchange rate margin (or difference to the mid-rate).

    The transaction margin you end up being charged can be considerably reduced by around a few percent (of total amount being exchanged) for travel money and possibly over 5% to 6% when sending money. The exact potential savings depends on the currencies being exchanged and the amount you are transferring and if you are willing to shop around.

    Our real-time foreign transfer and travel money/cards comparison calculators make shopping around easy and help you calculate how much you can save.

    It's worth noting that while these tips can help you save on exchange rates, it's important to be aware that no single method is guaranteed to provide the best exchange rate in every situation, and it may require some research and comparison-shopping to find the best option for your specific needs.

    Setting up a business in the US as a foreigner

    Setting up a business in the US as a foreigner is generally the same process as setting up a business as a US citizen. However, there may be additional legal requirements and regulations that apply to foreign nationals. It is advisable to consult with a lawyer who specializes in immigration and business law to ensure compliance with all relevant laws and regulations. Additionally, obtaining a valid work visa may be necessary in order to work in the US as a foreigner. It's important to research the specific requirements for the type of business you plan to start and the state where you plan to set it up.
