Here's proof that Singapore's poor economic performance will end soon

Trade, industrial production bode well.

According to Deutsche Bank Market Research, they think that Singapore’s long-string of poor economic data is about to turn a corner soon. Beginning with production, the research firm sees a fairly decent link between US purchasing manager’s sentiment and Singapore’s industrial production, a large part of which is export-oriented.

"We think the economy is likely to pick up along with global demand shortly. Trade and industrial production have likely bottomed through the first quarter of this year," Deutsche Bank said.

It added that inflation remains high and the housing market continues to rise despite cooling measures. The risk of further tightening measures is therefore non-trivial.

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.
