Watch Out Currencies, It's A Volatile 2025

Uncertain and volatile are the buzz words for 2025, no thanks to incoming US President Donald Trump and his stance on tariffs and taxes. With that, the pace and quantum of Fed rate cuts is less clear, so what does that mean for Asian currencies and the Ringgit in particular? Christopher Wong, FX Strategist, OCBC Bank tells us his 2025 outlook.
