# Three-month SORA falls to 1.1384, a new low in over a year | Lianhe Zaobao

The Singapore benchmark interest rate for housing loans, the three-month Singapore Overnight Rate Average (SORA), continues to decline, now falling to a level of 1.1384, which is the lowest level in over a year.

Driven by sustained capital inflows and market expectations for a loose monetary policy from the U.S. Federal Reserve, Singapore dollar interest rates have been continuously decreasing recently.

Data from the Monetary Authority of Singapore shows that the three-month SORA has dropped more than 180 basis points over the past year, from 3.0227% at the beginning of 2025 to 1.1384% on January 23 of this year.

On Monday (January 26), the three-month SORA reported at 1.1436, slightly rebounding.

As SORA declines, mortgage rates from various banks are also continuously decreasing. The mortgage comparison website Mortgage Master shows that the current average floating rate for three years has dropped to between 1.47% and 1.67%, while fixed rates range from 1.48% to 1.75%.

Some analysts believe that the three-month SORA is expected to hit bottom soon and may rebound afterward.

Senior currency analyst Chen Jin from Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (MUFG) stated that the three-month SORA will continue to decline, reaching around 1.14%. "This decrease reflects ample liquidity, moderate inflation pressure, and a downward trend in the federal funds rate." But he also said that with inflation in Singapore rebounding and excess liquidity gradually dissipating, the current level may be close to the bottom, and it is expected that the three-month SORA will rise to around 1.3%
