Latest NODX dip suggests external headwinds still threaten Singapore economy

May sour the country's recovery outlook.

Singapore’s non-oil domestic exports (NODX) disappointed for a second straight month, noted BBVA, declining by -8.8% y/y in June from -4.6% the previous month, partly due to a high base effect.

Electronic products exports also remained weak (-12.4% y/y), while non-electronic products exports softened in June as well (-7.1% y/y).

For BBVA, the export growth slowdown seen in most of Singapore’s major export markets, including DMs (EU, US and Japan) and ASEAN countries, suggest that external headwinds continue to threaten the country’s fragile recovery outlook.

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.
