Singapore amongst Asian economies most exposed to US tariffs: report

Singapore’s ability to negotiate tariff reductions remains unspecified.

Singapore is amongst the Asian economies that are “more exposed” to trade and/or tariff risks from the U.S., Morgan Stanley reported.

Other Asian countries in this category include China, Taiwan, Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, and Hong Kong.

According to Morgan Stanley, not all Asian economies may successfully negotiate deals to lower tariffs. For Singapore, its ability to negotiate remains unspecified.

“Even if they do [negotiate], these deals will take time, keeping uncertainty elevated,” Morgan Stanley said.

Morgan Stanley classified Asian economies’ exposure to US tariffs into three groups: “more exposed,” “moderately exposed,” and “likely exposed.”

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.
