[What the role is]
The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) is Singapore’s central bank and integrated financial regulator.

As central bank, MAS promotes sustained, non-inflationary economic growth through the conduct of monetary policy and close macroeconomic surveillance and analysis. It manages Singapore’s exchange rate, official foreign reserves, and liquidity in the banking sector.

As an integrated financial supervisor, MAS fosters a sound financial services sector through its prudential oversight of all financial institutions in Singapore – banks, insurers, capital market intermediaries, financial advisors, and stock exchanges. It is also responsible for well-functioning financial markets, sound conduct, and investor education.

MAS also works with the financial industry to promote Singapore as a dynamic international financial centre. It facilitates the development of infrastructure, adoption of technology, and upgrading of skills in the financial industry.

This role requires the ability to apply conceptual economic frameworks and econometric methods for policy analysis. You will have the opportunity to provide research-based policy advice to MAS management, brief policymakers on your research and engage with visiting academics.

  • A recently completed PhD or (Research) Master’s degree in Economics or Finance (or closely related fields)

  • A background in theoretical and empirical macroeconomics as well as a good understanding of Singapore’s economic policy context
