Taiwan to suffer further 1.5% dip in export orders

This is following a nine-month low manufacturing PMI.

According to BBVA, as a forward indicator for near-term export prospects in the region, Taiwan’s export orders will be watched to gauge the extent of the ongoing slump in global trade.

Here's more from BBVA:

The economy’s export performance has been very weak in the past two months, as manufacturing PMI dropped to a nine month low (46.1 in August). The recent slowdown in China’s economy, as evidenced by sluggish activity and trade, has further intensified concerns about Taiwan’s export outlook.

We expect year-on-year growth of export orders continue to decline in August (Forecast: -1.5% y/y), albeit at a slower pace. Orders from major export partners might show some signs of stabilization, although a meaningful recovery has yet to come.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
