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 electronics, petroleum products, chemicals, medical and optical devices, pharmaceuticals, and on Singapore’s 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 from 2012-2017 was slower than during the previous decade, a result of slowing structural growth - as Singapore reached high-income levels - and soft global demand for exports. Growth recovered to 3.6% in 2017 with a strengthening global economy.
The government is attempting to restructure Singapore’s economy to reduce its dependence on foreign labor, raise productivity growth, and increase wages amid slowing labor force growth and an aging population. 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 signatory of the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), and a party to the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) negotiations with 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 : |
ECONOMY |
|
In the fourth quarter of 2017,
the economy grew by 3.6% on a year-on-year basis, moderating from the 5.5%
growth in the previous quarter. The sectors which contributed the most to
growth in the quarter were the manufacturing and finance & insurance
sectors. For the whole of 2017, the economy expanded by 3.6%, higher than the
2.4% growth in 2016. All major sectors grew in 2017, with the exception of
the construction sector. The manufacturing and finance & insurance
sectors were the key contributors to overall GDP growth. |
|
|
The manufacturing sector
expanded by 4.8% in the fourth quarter 2017, slowing from the 19% surge in
the third quarter. Growth was led by robust output expansions in the
electronics and precision engineering clusters, which more than offset
declines in the biomedical manufacturing and transport engineering clusters.
For full year 2017, the manufacturing sector grew by 10%, higher than the
3.7% growth in 2016. Growth was primarily driven by the electronics and
precision engineering clusters, while output declines in the biomedical
manufacturing, transport engineering and general manufacturing clusters
weighed on growth. |
|
|
The services producing
industries collectively expanded to 3.5% in the fourth quarter 2017, the same
pace of growth as the previous quarter. Among the services sectors, the
finance & insurance sector registered the strongest growth at 6.3%,
followed by the information & communications (6.0%) and the
transportation & storage (5.3%) sectors. Services producing industries as
a whole expanded to 2.8% in full year 2017, faster than the 1.4% growth in 2016.
All services sectors saw positive growth. |
|
|
Among the services sectors, the
transportation & storage and finance & insurance sectors registered
the fastest pace of growth in 2017. Growth of the transportation &
storage sector came in at 4.8%, a pickup from the 1.3% in 2016, largely due
to stronger growth in the water transport and air transport segments.
Similarly, the finance & insurance sector expanded by 4.8%, improving
from the 1.6% growth in 2016. The robust performance of the sector was
largely because of strong growth in the fund management segment, even as
growth in the financial intermediation and insurance segments remained firm. |
|
|
Besides, the construction
sector contracted to 5.0%, extending the 9.3% decline in the third quarter
2017. The output of the sector was weighed down primarily by the weakness in
private sector construction activities, as certified payments across all
private construction segments declined. Meanwhile, the construction sector
contracted to 8.4% in 2017, a reversal from the 1.9% growth in 2016. Output
in the sector was primarily weighed down by the weakness in private sector
construction works. |
|
|
In the fourth quarter 2017,
total demand rose by 4.9%, lower than the 5.5% growth in the preceding
quarter. For the whole of 2017, growth in total demand came in at 4.4%, an
improvement from the 1.6% in 2016. External demand was the key contributor to
total demand growth (3.0 percentage-points), while the contribution from
domestic demand was also positive (1.4 percentage-points). |
|
|
Total domestic demand rose by
6.6 % in the fourth quarter 2017, following the 8.5% growth in the previous
quarter. Growth was supported primarily by the build-up in inventories and
also higher consumption expenditure. Gross fixed capital formation also contributed
positively to total domestic demand growth in the quarter. For 2017 as a
whole, total domestic demand increased by 5.4%, higher than the 3.1%
expansion in 2016. Meanwhile, external demand rose by 4.2% in the fourth
quarter 2017, similar to the 4.4% growth in the preceding quarter. The
increase in external demand was primarily due to higher real merchandise
exports. For the full year 2017, external demand grew at a faster pace of
4.1%, compared to the 1.1% growth in 2016. |
|
|
Total consumption expenditure
rose at a slower pace of 4.4% in the fourth quarter 2017, compared to the
5.7% expansion in the previous quarter. For the full year 2017, total
consumption expenditure grew by 3.3%, an improvement from the 2.1% growth in
2016, on the back of faster growth in both public and private consumption.
Public consumption expanded by 4.1%, compared to 3.5% in 2016, while private
consumption grew by 3.1%, compared to 1.7% in the previous year. Expenditure
on miscellaneous goods & services, recreation & culture and housing
& utilities were the main contributors to private consumption growth. |

Since November 2017, the
outlook for global growth has improved slightly with the IMF upgrading its
global growth forecast for 2018 to 3.9%, partly on the back of higher growth
expected in the US due to the recently approved tax reforms. However, as
compared to 2017, growth in most of Singapore’s key final demand markets such
as the Eurozone, Japan, NIEs and ASEAN-5 is projected to moderate or remain
unchanged in 2018. In the US, GDP growth is projected to improve further in
2018, supported by domestic demand and fiscal stimulus arising from the
recently approved tax reforms, although there are uncertainties around the
extent to which investments would respond to the tax reforms. On the other
hand, growth in the Eurozone economy is projected to moderate in 2018,
following the rebound seen in 2017. Growth will be underpinned by continued
improvements in labour market conditions and largely accommodative monetary
policies. |
|
|
In Asia, China’s growth is also
expected to ease in 2018 on the back of a slowdown in investment, even as
consumption is likely to remain stable and provide support to growth.
Meanwhile, growth in the key ASEAN economies is expected to remain firm in
2018, supported by sustained improvements in domestic demand as well as
merchandise exports. On balance, the external demand outlook for Singapore is
expected to be slightly weaker in 2018 as compared to 2017. Taking into
account the global and domestic economic environments, Ministry of Trade and
Industry (MTI) has maintained the 2018 GDP growth forecast at “1.5 to 3.5%”.
MTI’s central view is that growth will likely come in slightly above the
middle of the forecast range, barring the materialisation of downside risks. |
