Singapore GDP predicted to grow 3.9% in 2014

And 4.1% come 2015.

According to ADB, the expected global economic recovery and the consequences of ongoing domestic economic restructuring will shape economic trends in Singapore in the forecast period.

Here's more from ADB:

With export of goods and services equivalent to twice of GDP, the economy will benefit from improved external demand.

On the other hand, the tighter labor market will weigh on growth, with 1.8% unemployment and on a downward trend and vacancies far exceeding job seekers.

On balance, GDP is forecast to grow by 3.9% in 2014, near the upper bound of the government’s forecast of 2%–4%, and by 4.1% in 2015.

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.
