Stronger 1Q GDP reinforces 2011 GDP forecast of 7%

This is higher than the official forecast range of 4-6 per cent, said DBS Vickers.

According to their report, this is despite near-term growth concerns from high oil and commodity proces as well as impact from Japan.

DBS Vickers' economist believes that with the 8.5% YoY number, market consensus for 2011 GDP forecast that is currently within the official range of 4-6% will shift upwards.

This is despite an anticipated weak 2Q due to a high base effect, high oil/commodity prices and the disaster in Japan. Growth is expected to pick up again in 2H.

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.
