Singapore ranks 28th on the list of best countries to work remotely

Digital and physical infrastructure makes SG an appealing remote work destination.

Singapore emerged as one of the top remote work destinations in the world, ranking 28th in NordLayer’s Global Remote Work Index (GRWI).

Countries in the index are ranked based on their cyber safety, economic safety, digital and physical infrastructure, and social safety.

Singapore ranked first in the digital and physical infrastructure category with a score of 0.900.

It also ranked high in cyber safety, placing 25th with a score of 0.801.

Despite having the fourth-best internet quality in the world and excellent cybersecurity infrastructure, Singapore still has a lot of room for improvement until it becomes a perfect work destination.

Economic safety-wise, Singapore still needs a lot of growth, coming in at 68 (0.658) in the global index overall. It also needs to improve the country’s social safety, ranking 40th with a score of 0.746.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
