Singapore exports to lose steam in 2011

The rebound in trade shown in the last three months of 2010 is seen to be temporary, UBS said.

Singapore export-to-GDP came in at around 15% in the previous year.

Exports are a key source of income for Asia and are a primary determinant of the Asian business cycle. Singapore and Hong Kong are affected the most by the trade cycle.

UBS expects trade to decelerate year-on-year until 2Q11; but the rate at which Asian export bottom could be higher than they originally pencilled in.

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.
