US Markets Wrap: How will the Fed's latest move impact your money & did it leave the door open for further rate hikes down the road?

In a world shaped by AI disruption, economic uncertainty and rapid workplace transformation, companies are being forced to rethink how they manage talent. Increasingly, the HR function is being seen not just as administrative support, but as a strategic driver of change.

Benjamin Boh, SNEF Council member, and Co-Chair of the Tripartite Workgroup on Human Capital Capability Development joins the Breakfast Show to unpack why stronger HR capabilities may matter for business resilience.

Morning Shot: Is HR Singapore’s Next Competitive Advantage?

Annually, Singapore tops yet another global list for being the most expensive place in the world to own a car.

With COEs hitting new highs, a typical family car easily costs up to S$250,000 to maintain. We ask the big question: is a car here a luxury… or something families actually need? We break down the numbers, compare global habits, and debate whether policies should make it easier for families to own their first car.
