Editorial scope
Asia Daily follows monetary conditions and financial systems across Asian economies. Hong Kong, Singapore, mainland China and Japan form the initial editorial core. Regional coverage does not imply that every market has an active automated feed.
Official inputs and verified fields
Hong Kong: the HKMA Daily Figures of Monetary Base provides Aggregate Balance values in HKD millions. A separately documented monetary-base dataset offers a fallback reporting basis; when those definitions differ they must not be conflated. The HKMA interbank-liquidity and exchange-rate datasets supply distinct dated observations, including HKD reference rates for CNY, SGD and JPY. These are not statements about another central bank’s policy decisions.
Singapore: a monthly SGD/USD month-end dataset is made available by the Singapore Department of Statistics and attributes its underlying data to MAS. It is explicitly monthly, not a current trading quote or a SORA observation. Singapore official dataset ↗
Japan, South Korea and India: the Bank of Japan, Bank of Korea and Reserve Bank of India official English-language release feeds are queried for dated publications. China's National Bureau of Statistics offers an original-language feed; it is retained as publication metadata, not passed off as a verified English translation. No live PBoC numerical policy series is claimed at this stage.

Update cadence and confidence
The server checks configured official sources and caches a response for a limited period to reduce repeated upstream requests. The browser revisits the same editorial desk rather than repeatedly fetching multiple competing copies. Each output records its last retrieval time and retains original observation or publication dates. An older record is not silently promoted to today's news. A source can be available without having issued a new release that day.
Automated briefings are conservative, rule-based English analysis of verified observations and release metadata. A central-bank headline alone cannot prove the content of a meeting decision or its market consequence. Source outages, schema mismatches and incomplete geographical coverage are reported explicitly. This is a rolling online edition, not a claim of a permanent editorial archive or a trained predictive machine-learning model.
Data quality and correction policy
Official numerical fields must pass type, date and range checks. Calculations use observation dates rather than assuming consecutive calendar days. A substitute source is accepted only under its documented definition and is not silently substituted for an economically different series. RSS items are checked for date, official source domain and duplication. Original titles in Asian languages are retained, while English summaries are limited to the verified subject and metadata unless the original publication's full content has been separately checked.
Copyright and licensing
The interface, typography, CSS composition and explanatory text are original BondStats materials. No third-party newswire text, photographs, official logos or licensed stock images are embedded. Official factual observations are attributed and linked to their origin. Access to an official API does not itself grant unlimited redistribution rights; applicable source terms must be respected before broader republication or bulk export.
Limitations and corrections
The monitor is a research interface, not investment advice. Official observations may be revised. A missing or invalid source response is explicitly labelled unavailable. The initial live feed does not establish market causation or provide a complete assessment of regional conditions. Corrections to BondStats-authored interpretation should identify the affected text and its revision date.
