Singapore stock levels rose despite global destocking

Stocks of raw materials and semi-manufactured goods fell for the second quarter in 4Q10, HSBC said.

As the Singapore's stock levels rose along with India, Saudi Arabia, Czech Republic, South Africa and Mexico, inventory levels fell in China, Brazil, Poland, Taiwan, South Korea and Israel.

Russia recorded by far the sharpest rate of stock depletion in Q4.

However, HSBC said the rate of destocking was only marginal, and slightly slower than in Q3.

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.
