  "summary": "The World Bank has lifted its growth outlook for East Asia and Pacific to 4.5% this year. According to CNBC, the bank flagged that trade growth outside AI-related goods has been weak or negative.\n\nThe World Bank's revised growth forecast is the same in reports from CNBC and CNBC World.\n\nThe Straits Times Business report also mentions DBS, a major bank in South-east Asia, and its efforts to support Singapore's push towards a more digitally connected economy and trusted AI hub. However, it does not provide information that overlaps with the World Bank's growth outlook.",
