Singapore ranks 3rd-most resilient location for business and investment

2026 FM Resilience Index shows top economies recover 30% faster from property losses.

Singapore retained third place in the 2026 FM Resilience Index, Factory Mutual Insurance Company’s annual ranking of 130 countries and territories on business environment resilience.

Europe dominated the top 10, with Denmark leading, whilst the United States fell outside the top 10, and Asia saw rising scores from India and other markets.

Singapore scored highly on governance stability, digital infrastructure, and engineering standards, making it one of the most resilient locations for businesses facing climate, cybersecurity, and operational risks.

The Index shows that locations in the top 50 recover over 30% faster from property losses than lower-ranked countries, giving companies a measurable advantage in risk management and operational continuity.

Other high-ranking Asian economies include Japan at 32nd and South Korea at 34th.

Singapore’s top-three position strengthens its appeal for data centres, power generation, and large-scale infrastructure projects, where resilience is critical.

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.
