Singapore NODX surprises with sharp 9.7% contraction in February

On back of a large decline in total trade.

Singapore’s non-oil domestic exports surprised with a sharp 9.7% year-on-year contraction in February, outpacing analyst expectations of a mild 0.9% contraction.

The decline follows three straight months of increase and was driven by an 18.2% contraction in total trade. Electronic NODX decreased by 12.5%, while non-electronic NODX contracted by 8.5%.

On a y-o-y basis, NODX to all of the top 10 export markets decreased except to South Korea, the US, Thailand and Malaysia. The top three contributors to the NODX expansion in February 2015 were the China, Japan and Taiwan.

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.
