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. The economy contracted 0.6% in 2009 as a result of the global financial crisis, but rebounded 15.1% in 2010, on the strength of renewed exports, before slowing to in 2011-13, 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. 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.

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : AVERAGE GROWTH



CREDIT RISK EVALUATION & RECOMMENDATION

 


Incorporated in 2005, the Subject is a Sole Proprietorship company, focusing on trading of electrical appliances. Having been in business for more than 5 years, the Subject has established a remarkable clientele base for itself which has contributed to its business growth. Having strong support from its shareholder has enabled the Subject to remain competitive despite the challenging business environment.


The Subject focuses only on overseas market. This global approach has enabled the Subject to generate a better growth sales.  Being an export-oriented company, the Subject however is subjected to certain inherent risk of global economy slowdown, foreign currencies fluctuations and stiff competition in the international market. Overall, we regard that the Subject's management capability is average. This indicates that the Subject has greater potential to improve its business performance and raising income for the Subject.


As the Subject is registered as a sole-proprietorship, its financial statement are not available for analysis. As such, we are unable to ascertain the Subject's financial health. The Subject's ability to meet its obligations is very much dependent on the owner's financial strength.


The industry shows an upward trend and this trend is very likely to sustain in the near terms. Hence, the Subject is expected to benefit from the favourable outlook of the industry.


In view of the above, we only recommend credit be proceeded to the Subject with guarantee.
