SINGAPORE: Singapore's key consumer price gauge eased to 3.0% in September on a yearly basis, almost matching economists' forecasts, official data showed on Monday.
The core inflation rate - which excludes private road transport and accommodation costs - was in line with the 3.1% forecast by a Reuters poll of economists and compared with 3.4% in August, and a peak of 5.5% in January and February.
