Singapore real wages to rise by 0.5% in 2024

Next year marks a rebound from the 1.5% decrease in real wages in 2023.

Real wages in Singapore fell by 1.5% in 2023 but are expected to rise by 0.5% in 2024, according to the latest Salary Trends Report by ECA International (ECA).

ECA International said real wages are the "nominal wage growth minus the rate of inflation."

In nominal terms, salaries increased by 4% in 2023; however, due to the high inflation, salaries fell by 1.5% in real terms.

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.
