First quarter GDP growth likely to fall below 2%, warns BofAML

The GDP forecast will be revised.

Singapore’s first quarter gross domestic product (GDP) growth is likely to fall below the government’s forecast range of 2%-4%, Bank of America Merrill Lynch said in a report.

The report stated that industrial production growth is likely to be near zero for until February, after Singapore posted a disappointing 0.9% IP growth in January.

“We think there is a high probability that the government will have to reduce the GDP growth forecast to 1%-3% before mid-year, from the current 2%-4%,” BofAML noted.

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.
