SINGAPORE (Reuters) - The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) said on Thursday it would announce its semi-annual monetary policy decision on April 14.

The website of Singapore's monetary bank showed its monetary policy statement will be released at 8 a.m. (0000 GMT).

The MAS is expected to keep policy steady at next week's review, but a number of economists say a further easing this year remains a distinct possibility in the face of slow growth, low inflation and depressed global demand.
