Singapore GDP up 6.5% in 3Q21

The quarter’s GDP moderates from 15.2% in 2Q21.

 The Singapore economy experienced a growth of 6.5% y-o-y in 3Q21, according to a press release by the Ministry of Trade and Industry Singapore.

This is a slowdown from the 15.2% growth seen in the previous quarter. 

On a q-o-q basis, a 0.8% expansion was seen, compared to the 1.4% contraction in the preceding quarter.

All industries saw growth in the quarter, with the top grower being the construction sector.

 A growth of 57.9% y-o-y was observed and is due to the low base effects given the slow resumption of construction activities following the Circuit Breaker last year.

The same can also be said for the performance of the other sectors.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
