SINGAPORE'S banking system may be among the first to recover to pre-Covid-19 levels, S&P Global Ratings said in a report on Thursday.

The Republic's banking system was identified as an "early-exiter" with low negative impact when it comes to recovery prospects for banking jurisdictions. Expected recovery will be by the end of 2022.

S&P said early-exiter jurisdictions include those where there has been no hit on its banking industry country risk assessments to date and limited effect on financial institution ratings.

For US and Canada banking systems, S&P said pandemic-related loan losses will likely sharpRead More – Source
