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.

|
The Subject's turnover increased steadily as the demand for its
products / services increased due to the goodwill built up over the years.The
higher profit could be attributed to the increase in turnover. The Subject's
management had generated acceptable return for its shareholders using its
assets. |

|
The Subject 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
Subject. The Subject had a favourable creditors' ratio where the Subject
could be taking advantage of the cash discounts and also wanting to maintain
goodwill with its creditors. |

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

|
|
The interest cover showed that the Subject was able to service the interest.
The favourable interest cover could indicate that the Subject was making
enough profit to pay for the interest accrued. The Subject was lowly geared
thus it had a low financial risk. The Subject was mainly financed by its
shareholders' funds and internally generated funds. In times of economic
slowdown / downturn, the Subject being a lowly geared company, will be able
to compete better than those companies which are highly geared in the same
industry. |
||||||
|
Overall Assessment : |
||||||
|
Generally, the Subject's performance has improved with higher turnover
and profit. Due to its weak liquidity position, the Subject 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 Subject. With the
favourable interest cover, the Subject could be able to service all the
accrued interest without facing any difficulties. The Subject as a lowly
geared company, will be more secured compared to those highly geared companies.
It has the ability to meet all its long term obligations. |

INDUSTRY : |
TRADING |
|
The wholesale and retail trade sectors have expanded by 2.0% in the
third quarter of 2014, extending the 1.8 per cent growth in the previous
quarter. In 2013, the wholesale and retail sector expanded by 5.0%, after
declining by 1.4% the year before. Growth of the sector was driven by the
wholesale trade segment. |
|
|
The domestic wholesale trade index has increased by 3.2% in the fourth
quarter of 2013, moderating from the 6.6% growth in the previous quarter. The
slower growth was due to a decline in the sales of furniture and household
equipment (-12%) and petroleum and petroleum products (-0.6%). For the full
year, the domestic wholesale trade index grew by 5.2% reversing the 2.2%
decline in 2012. On the other hand, the foreign wholesale trade index has
increased by a slower pace of 5.6% in the fourth quarter, compared to the
7.7% expansion in the preceding quarter. The slowdown was due to a fall in
the sales of telecommunication equipment and computer (-3.8%) and petroleum
and petroleum products (-2.5%). For the full year, the growth of the foreign
wholesale trade index moderated slightly to 8.6% from 9.1% in the previous
year. |
|
|
In the fourth quarter of 2013, retail sales volume fell by 6.2%,
extending the 5.6% decline in the previous quarter. Excluding motor vehicles,
retail sales volume increased by 0.4%, a slower pace of expansion as compared
to the 1.6% gain in the preceding quarter. The sales volume of motor vehicles
fell by 33% in the fourth quarter of 2013, extending the 32% decline in the
previous quarter. Meanwhile, the sales of several discretionary items also
fell in the fourth quarter of 2013. For instance, the sales of
telecommunications apparatus and computers fell by 12%, while the sales of
furniture and household equipment declined by 5.4%. |
|
|
For the full year, retail sales volume contracted by 4.3%, a reversal
from the 1.3% expansion in 2012. Excluding motor vehicle sales, the retail
sales volume grew by 1.1% in 2013, slower than the 1.7% increase in 2012.
Watches and jewellery recorded the largest increase (11%) in sales in 2013,
followed by optical goods and book (3%) and medical goods and toiletries
(3%). By contrast, the sales of telecommunications apparatus and computer
(-7.3%), furniture and household equipment (-4.2%) and petrol service
stations (-1.4) declined in 2013. |

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.
