The recent depreciation of the Singapore dollar (SGD) against the US dollar (USD) has raised concerns amid a backdrop of fluctuating market sentiments and policy uncertainties. FX analysts note that after reaching decade highs earlier this year, the SGD has experienced a reversal, driven primarily by market risk aversion amid speculation surrounding future US interest rates and the upcoming November elections. The Monetary Authority of Singapore's relatively hawkish policy outlook contrasted with that of the Federal Reserve is expected to influence the future direction of the SGD. Economists are observing the impact of Singapore’s upgraded growth forecast, which anticipates a healthy economic expansion of around 3.5% in 2024, providing potential support for the SGD.

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