Chart of the Day: GDP growth slows

Singapore has narrowly averted a contraction, thanks to the pharmaceutical industry.

DBS Group Research noted:

Final GDP figures for 2Q12 will be on tap this Friday morning. As the nation is due to celebrate its 47th birthday, the good news is that the earlier prediction (official advance estimates) of a 1.1% QoQ saar contraction in GDP is likely to be revised upwards to a modest 0.4% expansion. That should translate into a 2.2% YoY expansion.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
