8 of Top 10 NODX markets shrank in March

Only Japan and China grew yoy.

According to International Enterprise (IE) Singapore, the top three contributors to the NODX contraction in March 2013 were the EU 27, Malaysia and the US.

NODX to the EU 27 declined by 16.2 per cent in March 2013, following the previous month’s decrease of 52.2 per cent, led by pharmaceuticals (-21.8 per cent), ICs (-37.0 per cent) and diodes & transistors (-50.2 per cent). NODX to Malaysia decreased by 21.3 per cent in March 2013, after the 25.6 per cent contraction in the preceding month, due to ICs (-46.2 per cent), parts of PCs (-33.2 per cent) and consumer electronics (-79.4 per cent). NODX to the US declined by 10.8 per cent in March 2013, following the 52.1 per cent contraction in the preceding month, due to parts of PCs (-54.5 per cent), ICs (-15.8 per cent) and measuring instruments (-25.1 per cent).

Meanwhile, NODX to emerging markets increased by 16.0 per cent in March 2013, in contrast to the 6.9 per cent contraction in the previous month. The increase in NODX to the emerging markets was due mainly to Latin America, CLMV and Middle East.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

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.
