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. Growth in 2014-17 was slower than during the previous decade, at under 3% annually, 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 growth, and increasing Singaporean wages. Singapore has attracted major investments in advanced manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and medical technology production and will continue efforts to strengthen its position as Southeast Asia's leading financial and technology hub. Singapore is a member of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership negotiations with the nine other ASEAN members plus Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea, and New Zealand. In 2015, Singapore formed, with the other ASEAN members, the ASEAN Economic Community.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

 

INDUSTRY :

TRADING

The wholesale & retail trade sector expanded by 6.8% in the third quarter of 2015, higher than the 6.0% growth in the preceding quarter. Growth was supported by both the wholesale trade and retail trade segments. The wholesale trade segment was boosted by an increase in both domestic and foreign wholesale trade sales volume. In particular, the domestic wholesale trade index rose by 7.4%, following the 8.1 % increase in the previous quarter. The strong performance in domestic wholesale trade was due to a surge in the sales of petroleum and petroleum products (14%), chemicals & chemical products (39%) and telecommunications & computers (18%).

Similarly, the foreign wholesale trade index rose by 10% in the third quarter of 2015, accelerating from the 6.9% rise in the previous quarter. Growth was driven by improvements in the sales of petroleum & petroleum products (21%), metals, timber & construction materials (10%) and general wholesale trade (8.8%).

Overall retail trade sales volume also recorded resilient growth of 5.6% in the third quarter of 2015, extending the 6.4 % expansion in the second quarter. Growth was supported by a surge in the volume of motor vehicle sales (44%), which was in turn due to a substantial increase in the supply of Certificate of Entitlements. Excluding motor vehicles, retail sales volume increased at a much slower pace of 0.7% over the same period. The increase in retail sales volume (excluding motor vehicles) was due to improved non-discretionary goods sales. For instance, the sales of medical goods & toiletries and department store goods rose by 8.1% and 3.6% respectively.

According to the Retail News Asia, Food and beverage has overtaken fashion as the primary driver of demand for retail real estate in Singapore. Despite declining retail sales and consumer spending, the prime retail sector remained in good shape during the third quarter 2015.

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : AVERAGE GROWTH



CREDIT RISK EVALUATION & RECOMMENDATION

 

 

Incorporated in 1981, the Subject is an Exempt Private company, focusing on wholesale of timber, agriculture product & other related product. The Subject has been in business for over two decades. It has built up a strong clientele base and satisfactory reputation will enable the Subject to further enhance its business in the near term. The Subject is expected to enjoy a stable market shares. A paid up capital of SGD 1,750,000 allows the Subject to expand its business more comfortably. However, the Subject does not have strong shareholders' backing. Without a strong shareholders' backing, the opportunity of the Subject to expand its business is limited.

Over the years, the Subject has established an extensive clientele base in the market. Besides catering to the local market, the Subject has penetrated into other countries. With the contribution of both local and overseas customers, the Subject is likely to be exposed to lower commercial risk. Hence, we believe that the Subject has better business expansion opportunities in the future. Being a small company, the Subject's business operation is supported by 4 employees. 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.

No financial accounts are available for analysis. As such, we are not able to comment on the Subject's current financial standing.


The industry shows an upward trend and this trend is very likely to sustain in the near terms.


In view of the above, we recommend credit be granted to the Subject with close monitoring.
