NODX on a winning streak, up 16.5% in March

Compared to February, the growth eased from a 21.1% uptrend.

Singapore's non-oil domestic exports clocked in their fifth consecutive month of growth in March, registering a 16.5% expansion. The improvement came following the 21.1% growth in February.

On a seasonally-adjusted basis, the level of NODX reached $14.9b in March, lower than the $15.1b in the previous month.

According to the latest figures released by International Enterprise (IE) Singapore, NODX eased by 1.1% from the previous month, on a seasonally adjusted basis, after electronic NODX posted a 5.2% growth in March, compared to a much more robust 17.2% rise in February.

Meanwhile, non-electronics NODX outweighed electronics with its 20.8% growth, a moderation from February’s 22.7% increase.

NODX to the top 10 markets rose in March 2017. The largest contributors were China (45.5%), Taiwan (32.5%), and Hong Kong (17.4%).

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.
