MAS transferred US$55 Bil excess official foreign reserves to GIC - Scythian - 09-04-2022

April 9 (Reuters): Singapore's central bank has announced that it has transferred excess official foreign reserves (OFR) of S$75 billion (US$55.11 billion) to the government through a subscription of reserves management government securities.

RMGS is a mechanism to facilitate the transfer of OFR that is not needed for the conduct of monetary policy and financial stability from the central bank to the government, for longer-term investment by GIC, the sovereign wealth fund.

3 years ago..

"8 May 2019…The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) said today that it would be transferring S$45 billion from the official foreign reserves (OFR) to the Government for longer-term investment.  

This amount is the excess over what MAS deems necessary to maintain confidence in Singapore’s exchange rate-centred monetary policy.  MAS, as the central bank of Singapore, manages the country’s OFR, which stood at S$404 billion as at April 2019."

MAS alone performed better than both GIC and Temasek SWF combined together.

With Transferring so big amount of S$75 billion, maybe  Should open another MAS and then, close GiC and Temasek.

Don't waste time.

Not investing overseas, just within Singapore banking sector alone, MAS can generate excess S$75 billion in short period of 3 years.

Why needs to go and invest overseas for?

Pandemic did not use much of our reserves

Because IMF distributed funds to all countries

Also we have lots of CPF funds  that  PAP said is not our money 

For example-  $4 Billion in CPF collected PER MONTH 

To be used instead

Look up PSP Liew speech on why this should not be allowed

I think reasons why is very clear


RE: MAS transferred US$55 Bil excess official foreign reserves to GIC - sgbuffett - 10-04-2022

Using reserves tk complement budget is a subsidy on progressive taxes implemented for the wealth.

By using reserves funds which also consists of excess returns from use of CPF funds by GIC for investments ...taxes are kept artificially low for the wealthy.

It is not this extra money from reserves is doing a lot for the needy in our society. It js just making up for the shortfall that comes from subsidising low taxes.

Within 3 years, MAS generated in excess of S$120 Bil IE 30% of Temasek Holding's Assets Under Management, AUM.

S$120 billion is MAS s excess (more than needed,)

This shows GIC and Temasek are performing far below par.
