Resilient residential property market likely helped Singapore avoid technical recession

Asian recovery also credited by Moody's.

Moody's expects the 4Q12 GDP to have grown by 1% ahead of the official results release.

"Singapore's economy recovered mildly in the final quarter of 2012, but growth remains sluggish. Tighter foreign worker inflows and weak global demand for electronics are contributing to the relatively subdued growth. On the upside, the region's recovery and the continued strength of the residential property market appears to have helped Singapore avoid a technical recession," Moody's said in its Asia-Pacific Preview report for this week.

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.
