Singapore ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Singapore has a highly developed and successful free-market economy. It enjoys a remarkably open and corruption-free environment, stable prices, and a per capita GDP higher than that of most developed countries. The economy depends heavily on exports, particularly in consumer electronics, information technology products, pharmaceuticals, and on a growing financial services sector. Real GDP growth averaged 8.6% between 2004 and 2007. The economy contracted 0.8% in 2009 as a result of the global financial crisis, but rebounded 14.8% in 2010, on the strength of renewed exports, before slowing to 5.2% in 2011 and 1.3% in 2012, largely a result of soft demand for exports during the second European recession. Over the longer term, the government hopes to establish a new growth path that focuses on raising productivity, which has sunk to an average of about 1.0% in the last decade. Singapore has attracted major investments in pharmaceuticals and medical technology production and will continue efforts to establish Singapore as Southeast Asia's financial and high-tech hub.

The SC is not required to have their accounts audited. However, the SC will prepare unaudited accounts for purposes of AGMs and filing with Registry Office if it is unable to meet all its obligations as and when they fall due .

The increase in turnover could be due to the SC adopting an aggressive marketing strategy.The higher profit could be attributed to the increase in turnover. The unfavourable return on shareholders' funds could indicate that the SC was inefficient in utilising its assets to generate returns.

The SC could be incurring higher holding cost. As its capital was tied up in stocks, it could face liquidity problems. The favourable debtors' days could be due to the good credit control measures implemented by the SC. The unfavourable creditors' ratio could be due to the SC taking advantage of the credit granted by its suppliers. However this may affect the goodwill between the SC and its suppliers and the SC may inadvertently have to pay more for its future supplies.

A low liquid ratio means that the SC may be facing working capital deficiency. If the SC cannot obtain additional financing or injection of fresh capital, it may face difficulties in meeting its short term obligations.

The SC's interest cover was nil as it did not pay any interest during the year. The SC had no gearing and hence it had virtually no financial risk. The SC was financed by its shareholders' funds and internally generated fund. During the economic downturn, the SC, having a zero gearing, will be able to compete better than those which are highly geared in the same industry.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Overall Assessment :

 

 

 

 

 

 

Generally, the SC's performance has improved with higher turnover and profit. Due to its weak liquidity position, the SC will be faced with problems in meeting all its short term obligations if no short term loan is obtained or additional capital injected into the SC. The SC did not make any interest payment during the year. The SC was dependent on its shareholders' funds to finance its business needs. The SC was a zero gearing company, it was solely dependant on its shareholders to provide funds to finance its business. The SC has good chance of getting loans, if the needs arises.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

 

INDUSTRY :

TRADING

 

 

 

The wholesale and retail trade sector contracted by 1.5% in the fourth quarter of 2012, extending the 0.2% decline in the preceding quarter. For the whole of 2012, the sector declined by 0.7%, reversing the 1.6% growth in 2011. The sector was weighed down primarily by the wholesale trade segment. In 2012, the wholesale trade segment contracted by 1.0%, a reversal from the 1.4% growth in 2011. Growth of the retail trade segment also moderated to 2.0%, from 3.2% in the year 2011.

 

The domestic wholesale trade index grew by 1.2% in the fourth quarter of 2012, an improvement from the 5.4% decline in the third quarter. This was partly due to an increase in the sales of chemicals & chemical products and ship chandlers & bunkering. For the full year of 2012, the domestic wholesale trade index contracted by 2.2%, extending the 1.7% decline in 2011. The foreign wholesale trade index grew by 8.6% in the fourth quarter, an increase from the 6.6% growth in the third quarter. The expansion was partly due to resilient sales of petroleum & petroleum products. For the whole of 2012, the foreign wholesale trade index expanded by 9.1%, faster than the 4.3% increase in 2011.

 

In the fourth quarter of 2012, retail sales volume declined by 2.0%, extending the 0.3% decline in the third quarter. Excluding motor vehicles, retail sales volume grew by 0.4%, a slight moderation compared to the 1.5% gain in the third quarter of 2012. The sales volume of motor vehicles fell by 11% in the fourth quarter of 2012, after contracting by 6.1% in the third quarter. The sales of several discretionary items also declined in the fourth quarter. Besides, the sales of optical goods & books in 2012 fell by 3.6%, while the sales of telecommunications apparatus & computers declined by 1.4%. 

 

For 2012 as a whole, retail sales volume grew by 1.3%, compared to the 2.0% expansion in 2011. Excluding motor vehicle sales, the increase in retail sales volume also moderated from 5.4% in 2011 to 1.7% in 2012. Medical goods & toiletries registered the largest increase (9.3%) in sales, followed by telecommunications apparatus & computers (6.9%). By contrast, the sales of watches & jewellery (-2.2%) and optical goods & books (-3.6%) declined.

 

 

 

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : AVERAGE GROWTH

 

CREDIT RISK EVALUATION & RECOMMENDATION

 

 

Incorporated in 1986, the SC is an Exempt Private company, focusing on trading of gems, diamonds and precious stones. With over 2 decades of experience in the business, the SC has fairly rich experiences in the business and has achieved a certain market share. However, with a weak shareholders' backing, the SC's capital position is weak. Inadequate capital may be a constraint to the SC as it limits its ability to expand its business in future. 

Being a small company, the SC's business operation is supported by 6 employees. Overall, we regard that the SC's management capability is average. 

We noted that both the turnover and profits have increased compared to the previous year. The higher profit could be due to increase in turnover and better control over its operating costs. The SC has generated an unfavourable return on shareholders' funds indicating that the management was inefficient in utilising its funds to generate return. Due to its weak liquidity position, the SC may face working capital deficiency in meeting its short term financial obligations if no fresh capital are injected into the SC. A zero gearing ratio indicates that the SC is mainly dependent on its internal funds to finance its business. 

The SC's overall payment habit is fair and this clearly implied a weak credit control of the SC. 

The industry shows an upward trend and this trend is very likely to sustain in the near terms. Hence, the SC is expected to benefit from the favourable outlook of the industry. Nonetheless, the SC should adopt better competitive strategies in order to sustain its business position and to compete with other well established players in the same industry. 

In view of its limited financial performance, we recommend credit be granted to the SC with close monitoring.

DIAMOND INDUSTRY – INDIA

 

-            From time immemorial, India is well known in the world as the birthplace for diamonds.  It is difficult to trace the origin of diamonds but history says that in the remote past, diamonds were mined only in India. Diamond production in India can be traced back to almost 8th Century B.C.  India, in fact, remained undisputed leader till 18th Century when Brazilian fields were discovered in 1725 followed by emergence of S. Africa, Russia and Australia.

-            The achievement of the Indian diamond industry was possible only due to combination of the manufacturing skills of the Indian workforce and the untiring and unflagging efforts of the Indian diamantaires, supported by progressive Government policies.

-            The area of study of family owned diamond businesses derives its importance from the huge conglomerate of family run organizations which operate in the diamond industry since many generations.

-            Some of the basic traits of family run business enterprises include spirit of entrepreneurship, mutual trust lowers transaction costs, small, nimble and quick to react, information as a source of advantage and philanthropy.

-            Family owned diamond businesses need to improve on many fronts including higher standard of corporate governance, long-term performance – focused strategies, modern management and technology.

-            Utmost caution is to be exercised while dealing with some medium and large diamond traders which are usually engaged in fictitious import – export, inter-company transactions, financially assisted by banks. In the process, several public sector banks lost several hundred million rupees. They mostly diverted borrowed money for diamond business into real estate and capital markets.

-            Excerpts from Times of India dated 30th October 2010 is as under –

 

-            Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council in its statistical data has shown the export of polished diamonds to have increase by 28 % in February 2013. Compared to $ 1.4 bn worth of polished diamond export in February, 2012, India exported $ 1.84 billion worth of polished diamonds in February 2013. A senior executive of GJEPC said, “Export of cut and polished diamonds started falling month-wise after the imposition of 2 % of import duty on the polished diamonds. But February, 2013 has given a new ray of hope to the industry as the export of polished diamonds has actually increased by 28 %. It means the industry  is on the track of recovery and round tripping of diamonds has stopped completely.” Demand has started coming from the US, the UK, Japan and China. India’s polished diamond export is expected to cross $ 21 bn in 2013-14.

 

-            The banking sector has started exercising restraint while following prudent risk management norms when lending money to gems and jewellery sector. This follows the implementation of Basel III accord – a global voluntary regulatory standard on bank capital adequacy, stress testing and market liquidity.
