Bonds have an inverse relationship to interest rates. So when the cost of borrowing money rises, bond prices usually fall. And if the market expects interest rates to rise, then bond yields rise as well, forcing bond prices to fall. On Money in the Market, Riad Chowdhury, Head of Asia Pacific at MarketAxess, joins us to take a deeper look at the bond market in the APAC region as we face rising interest rates globally.

Money in the Market: How are rising interest rates affecting bond markets in the region?

Singapore wants to become a leading global AI hub. But as AI moves rapidly from experimentation into real-world deployment, what happens next for businesses, workers and the economy?

Following Asia Tech x Singapore, Lynlee Foo speaks with Timothy Chin, Assistant Chief Executive (International) at the Infocomm Media Development Authority, about why “AI is no longer optional,” the growing pressure for companies to move beyond AI pilots, and whether Singapore is moving fast enough to stay competitive.

They explore agentic AI, workforce anxiety, OpenAI’s expansion into Singapore, AI governance and the skills workers may now need in an economy increasingly shaped by automation and AI-assisted decision-making. It also examines the reaction to recent comments by the Standard Chartered CEO on “lower-value human capital”, and why many workers still feel uneasy about where AI may be heading.

Viewpoint: “AI is no longer optional”: What comes next for Singapore?

On AI + Me, Reset with Lynlee explores how artificial intelligence is showing up in everyday life often in ways we least expect.

This week’s AI Tried It begins with a relatable modern meltdown: a Gen Alpha child loses an AirPod, the family group chat spirals, and AI unexpectedly enters the conversation.

The bigger question now is, “Could AI sometimes diffuse stress and emotions more effectively than the people around us?”

AI & Me: When emotions run high, does AI respond better?

This week on Viewpoint Friday, Lynlee Foo takes a step back to connect the dots behind some of Singapore’s biggest stories — from AI investment and booming tech sectors to rising business costs, restructuring and growing pressure on workers.

In Part 1, Song Seng Wun, economic advisor at fintech firm SDAX shares his “bellynomics” perspective on what businesses and consumers are experiencing on the ground, as stories like Gardenia shifting production to Malaysia, rising COE prices and global layoffs raise questions about whether different parts of Singapore’s economy are moving at different speeds.

In Part 2, Ian Tan, generative AI coach and lecturer at Nanyang Technological University’s Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and Information — discusses how AI is rapidly entering everyday working life, why companies and workers are feeling pressure to adapt, and how people can approach AI without getting overwhelmed.
