rates</b></h2><p>The trio of local banks, namely <b>DBS Group</b>(SGX: D05), <b>United Overseas Bank Ltd</b>(SGX: U11), or UOB, and <b>OCBC Ltd</b>(SGX: O39), have once again raised the rates on their mortgage loan offerings.</p><p>The latest increase is in line withrising interest ratesas the US Federal Reserve hikes its benchmark policy rate to deal withsurging inflation.</p><p>Singapore’s largest bank, DBS, is raising its fixed-rate housing loan interest rate to 3.5% from the earlier 2.75%.</p><p>This new rate now applies to all four of the lender’s packages with tenors of between two to five years.</p><p>Meanwhile, UOB announced that its two-year and three-year fixed-rate home loans bear interest rates of 3.75% and 3.85%, respectively.</p><p>Not to be outdone, OCBC has revised its two-year fixed rate to 3.5%, up from 2.98% just a fortnight ago.</p><p>The bank is also re-launching its one-year fixed rate package at 3.35%.</p><p>With higher rates across the board, homeowners should be prepared to fork out more in interest payments when they refinance their housing loans.</p><h2><b>Singapore retail sales</b></h2><p>Retail sales continued to rise in Singapore in August, continuing the trend seen in July.</p><p>Sales increased 13% year on year in August, slightly lower than the 13.9% year on year chalked up in the previous month.</p><p>The latest increase did fall below the 15.4% that analysts had expected.</p><p>The estimated total retail sales value for August came in at S$3.8 billion, of which online sales took up a 12.5% share.</p><p>Despite the slightly weaker numbers, August’s retail sales still represented a fifth consecutive month of double-digit year on year growth.</p><p>At the same time, elevated core inflation could dampen consumer demand in the months to come.</p><p>Along with higher interest rates, more households may tighten their belts and cut back on spending to service higher mortgage payments.</p><h2><b>SATS Ltd (SGX:

ground handler will finance the deal with a potential rights issue to raise the required S$1.7 billion to finance the purchase.</p><p>CEO Kerry Mok has come out to assure investors that the group is looking out for their interests and that a rights issue is one of four funding sources for the mega-deal.</p><p>He also acknowledged that SATS will have to scale down the size of the rights issue as in his own words: “the market does not like rights issues”.</p><p>In its original announcement for the acquisition, SATS had presented a funding plan that will involve the issuance of 609 million new shares at S$2.79 apiece.</p><p>The rights issue price was a steep discount of 28% to the food caterer’s then-closing price of S$3.87.</p><p>Other funding sources put forward include an acquisition bridge facility of €1.2 billion (around S$1.7 billion), internal cash resources, and new strategic investors.</p><p>The group may also tap into a mixture of the four sources to come up with an optimal plan to fund the acquisition.</p><p>Mok reiterated that investors should take a medium to long-term view of this deal as it will bring about tremendous benefits to
