MTI to release Q3 GDP estimates on October 14

The monetary policy decision will be issued as well.

Analysts forecasting a slower growth for the city-state will either be proven right or wrong as the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) announces Q3 GDP estimates next Friday.

According to MTI, it will release the estimates on October 14, around 8 a.m., the same time the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) will announce its policy decision.

To recall, Deputy Prime Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam said the city-state's economy is in for a tough period, with concerns over Brexit and weakening global demand weighing down economic growth forecast to 1-2%.

Meanwhile, a central bank survey revealed that economists and experts expect Singapore's trade-dependent economy to grow 1.8% this year.

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.
