Inspiring Entrepreneurs: Identifying market gaps

Travelling to China just got a digital upgrade. Singaporeans can now use China’s e-CNY, the digital renminbi, through a new pilot program that lets travellers top up digital wallets directly from their Singapore bank accounts.

But what does this mean beyond convenience? Is it simply another payment option, or part of a larger plan to expand China’s currency influence globally?

On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Dr. Ernie Teo, Senior Lecturer, and Program Director for the Bachelor of Applied Computing in Finance, Nanyang Technological University to unpack the rise of the e-CNY for tourists and explore its broader implications for digital payments and state-backed currencies.

It’s now time for a Special, year-end edition of Market View, where we not only take you though how the Singapore stock market closed for the day, but also step back to examine three key themes that have shaped markets over the year, and will continue to matter as we head into 2026.

The three themes are: First, whether the global AI boom can move beyond hype and experimentation into a phase of real productivity gains and earnings delivery. 

Second, uncertainty over the US Federal Reserve’s interest rate trajectory and whether we’re truly approaching a more balanced phase of growth, inflation and policy.

And finally, China’s economic transition and whether domestic consumption can meaningfully offset weaker property investment and export headwinds amid ongoing global trade tensions. 

On Market View, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian dived into the details with David Chow, Director, Azure Capital and Olivia Ding, Investment Analyst, Reed Capital Partners.
