NODX falls 6.4% YoY in Q2 as non-electronics decline

Non-electronic NODX declined 9.2% YoY. 

Non-oil domestic exports (NODX) fell by 6.4% year-on-year in Q2 2024, a sharper decline compared to the 3.4% decrease in Q1 2024.

Enterprise Singapore (EnterpriseSG) attributed the contraction to the decline in non-electronics NODX.

In Q2, non-electronic NODX declined 9.2% YoY. 

Pharmaceuticals,  non-monetary gold  &  food preparations, which fell by 50.5%, 36.7% and 7.6%, respectively, contributed the most to the dip in non-electronic NODX.

On the other hand, electronic NODX improved, increasing by 3.8% YoY, driven by PCs, ICs, and other computer peripherals grew by 58.4%, 7.6% and 668.0%, respectively.

Q2 also saw a contraction in NODX to Singapore’s top markets, with the US (-20.9% YoY), the EU 27 (-28.3% YoY) and Taiwan (-12.8% YoY) being the major contributors to the decrease.

Unlike NODX, oil domestic exports and non-oil re-exports (NORX) expanded in Q2, climbing 19.0% YoY and 11.9% YoY, respectively.

Meanwhile, total trade expanded by 10.1% YoY in Q2.

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.
