Singapore managers can look forward to a 5% pay hike

1 in 2 firms plan on raising salaries this year.

According to a report from Bloomberg, Singaporean managers and senior staff can prepare for 5 percent pay increases at most this year as the labor market stabilises. About 93 percent of companies in Singapore say they will keep or raise headcount this year, according to a survey by recruitment consultancy Michael Page of almost 450 businesses in the city state. Only 36 percent said they will recruit new hires.

Singapore's unemployment rate recently hit a six-year high of 2.2 percent, though the country still remains one of the easiest places in the world to find work.

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.
