Chart of the Day: Here's how much Singapore's property prices escalated in the last 13 years

Even household debt has been skyrocketing.

According to ADB, a big domestic risk arises from possible abrupt corrections in the property market, which could weaken the balance sheets of banks and households alike.

These risks remain manageable within the forecast period, and Singapore enjoys substantial ﬁnancial resources to respond to them if they materialize.

Here's more from ADB:

The MAS plays a central role in the development, management, and oversight of the ﬁnancial system, identifying and surveilling systemic
ﬁnancial risk, and designing and calibrating policy instruments to eÁectively address any weaknesses. Although the highly developed

ﬁnancial system of Singapore is well regulated and supervised, some risks to ﬁnancial stability have emerged in recent years stemming from
galloping real estate prices, which have surpassed their 2008 peak.

There is concern that these price trends could rekindle inﬂation expectations and threaten ﬁnancial stability, especially as the property boom is ﬁnanced by easy credit.

Property loans continue to grow at an elevated rate, and household debt has increased rapidly for 3 years to reach 76% of GDP at the end of 2013, with a corresponding increase in the exposure of locally incorporated banks to the property sector.

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.
