Manufactured products price index contraction eases in 2024

It was an improvement from the -4.5% in 2023.

Singapore’s Manufactured Products Price Index (SMPPI) declined 0.5% year-on-year (YoY), moderating from a 4.5% YoY contraction in 2023. In comparison, 2022’s SMPPI rate was at 14.9% YoY, data from the Department of Statistics showed.

The drop in Non-oil sub-indices was primarily driven by lower prices in Miscellaneous Manufactured Articles, particularly professional and scientific instruments, as well as declines in Chemicals & Chemical Products, Manufactured Goods, Animal & Vegetable Oils, and Beverages & Tobacco.

The decreases were partially offset by increases in Machinery & Transport Equipment, Food & Live Animals, and Crude Materials.

Similarly, the Domestic Supply Price Index (DSPI) fell 1.3% YoY, following a 6.7% YoY decline in 2023.

The decrease in Non-oil sub-indices was driven by lower prices in Chemicals & Chemical Products, Miscellaneous Manufactured Articles, Manufactured Goods, Animal & Vegetable Oils, Crude Materials, and Beverages & Tobacco.

These declines were partially offset by gains in Machinery & Transport Equipment and Food & Live Animals.

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.
