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. Unemployment is very low. The economy depends heavily on exports, particularly of consumer electronics, information technology products, medical and optical devices, pharmaceuticals, and on its vibrant transportation, business, and financial services sectors. The economy contracted 0.6% in 2009 as a result of the global financial crisis, but has continued to grow since 2010 on the strength of renewed exports. Growth in 2014 was slower at 2.9%, largely a result of soft demand for exports amid a sluggish global economy and weak growth in Singapore’s manufacturing sector. The government is attempting to restructure Singapore’s economy by weaning its dependence on foreign labor, addressing weak productivity, and increasing Singaporean wages. Singapore has attracted major investments in pharmaceuticals and medical technology production and will continue efforts to strengthen its position as Southeast Asia's leading financial and high-tech hub. Singapore is a member of the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership free trade negotiations, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership negotiations with the nine other ASEAN members plus Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea and New Zealand, and in 2015, Singapore will form, with the other ASEAN members, the ASEAN Economic Community.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

 

INDUSTRY :

MANUFACTURING

In the third quarter of 2014, manufacturing output has increased by 1.9%, extending the 1.5% growth in the previous quarter. Growth was largely driven by the biomedical manufacturing and chemicals clusters. Besides, for the whole 2013, the manufacturing sector grew by 1.7%, an uptick from the 0.3% growth recorded in the previous year. All clusters recorded an expansion in 2013, except the biomedical manufacturing cluster.

The chemicals cluster grew by 5.2% in the third quarter of 2014. Growth was led by the petrochemicals and specialty chemicals segments, which expanded by 8.9% and 7.1% respectively. By contrast, the petroleum segment contracted by 4.2% in the third quarter of 2014 due to plant maintenance shutdowns. For the year of 2013, the chemicals cluster grew only by 0.7%.

Besides, output of the biomedical manufacturing cluster expanded by 9.0% in the third quarter of 2014. The medical technology segment posted robust growth of 23% due to higher production of medical instruments and supplies, while the output of the pharmaceuticals segment rose by 6.2%. However, in the whole of 2013, the biomedical manufacturing cluster recorded only a flat growth.

In the third quarter of 2014, the transport engineering cluster contracted by 2.0%, dragged down by the aerospace segment. Output in the aerospace segment plunged by 18% on the back of fewer repair jobs from commercial airlines. This was mitigated by the 4.1% growth in the marine & offshore engineering segment, which was supported by higher contributions from rig building projects. Nonetheless, for the whole of 2013, the transport engineering cluster grew by 5.2%.

Moreover, output of the precision engineering cluster increased by 1.3% in the third quarter of 2014. The machinery & systems segment grew by 6.2%, supported by higher demand for semiconductor-related equipment and mechanical engineering work. This was partly offset by the decline in the output of the precision modules & components segment. Conversely, in the full year of 2013, the precision engineering cluster's output declined by 5.6%.

Furthermore, in the third quarter of 2014, output of the general manufacturing industries declined by 3.0%. The 2.1% growth in the food, beverages & tobacco segment was more than offset by declines in the other two segments. In particular, the miscellaneous industries segment contracted by 4.7% on the back of lower output in construction-related products, such as concrete & cement products and steel structural components. For the full year of 2013, the general manufacturing cluster grew by 2.8%.

Besides, in the third quarter of 2014, the electronics cluster expanded by 0.9%, reversing the 5.0% contraction in the previous quarter. Growth was supported by an expansion in the computer peripherals (6.3%) and data storage (2.6%) segments. Moreover, for the year 2013, the electronics cluster expanded by 3.5%.

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : MATURE



CREDIT RISK EVALUATION & RECOMMENDATION

 


Incorporated in 1999, the Subject is a Sole Proprietorship, focusing on manufacturing and processing of petrochemicals. Having been in the industry for over a decade, the Subject has achieved a certain market share and has built up a satisfactory reputation in the market. It should have received supports from its regular customers.

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 has reached its optimum level and is generally stable. It is saturated and very competitive. Thus, the Subject's growth prospect is very much depends on its capacity in sustaining its performance in the market.

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