NODX in December to likely hit 12.2%: Moody's

Export momentum picked up during the peak holiday season.

Singapore's non-oil domestic exports (NODX) will be released on January 17. It's likely recovered to 12.2% YoY in December after a 9.1% rise in November, Moody’s Investors Service forecast.

According to its economic review, tech exports remain the bright spot, as they have been through 2017.

Momentum picked up during the peak holiday season. Electronic exports rose to a three-month high of 5.2% YoY in November, led by a 9.6% rise in integrated circuit exports and a 21.6% increase in disk media exports.

"Exports of non-electronics are a little more volatile but on net are doing well thanks to pharmaceuticals, a particularly choppy sector," Moody's added.

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.
