Chart of the Day: Completed homes to hit 30,408 units by end-2013

It's over 1.5 times the average increase.

According to MAS Macroeconomic Review, investment demand will be anchored by ongoing capacity expansions in housing and public transportation, as Singapore augments its physical infrastructure to cater to the needs of a larger population base.

Major projects in the pipeline include Changi Airport Terminal 4, new port facilities in Tuas and several recently-announced additions to the MRT network.

Here's more from the report:

Residential investment is likewise expected to remain firm. Based on current projections, a total of 30,408 residential units are slated to be completed by end-2013, more than 1.5 times the average annual increase over 2000–11.

Meanwhile, EDB reported record investment commitments of some $16 billion last year. The ongoing drive to raise productivity should also translate into higher capital expenditure by firms, thereby providing a further boost to investment demand.

Moreover, the trend of rising services consumption will support growth in domestic investment in the coming years, as new facilities, such as hospitals and schools, will need to be built.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
