Singapore’s economy expanded 5.9% YoY in the fourth quarter of 2021, slowing from a 7.1% growth in the previous quarter but higher than market expectation for a 5.4% increase, preliminary data showed. For the whole of 2021, the economy grew by 7.2%, rebounding from the 5.4% contraction in 2020. The city-state bounced back for the year due to strong export demand and high vaccination rates, with 87% of the population having received two doses. However, persistent challenges of the pandemic became more apparent late in the year, with Singapore’s largest Covid outbreak in October leading to renewed domestic restrictions and a slow recovery of international travel affecting its core related industries. The manufacturing sector expanded 12.8% in 2021 on solid global demand for electronics components. The construction and services sectors rebounded 18.7% and 5.2%, respectively, after being hampered by pandemic restrictions. source: Statistics Singapore

Singapore Q3 GDP Growth Moderates
Singapore's economy expanded 7.1% yoy in Q3 2021, compared with market consensus of a 6.5% growth and slowing from an upwardly revised 15.2% jump in Q2, official data showed. Still, this was the third straight quarter of growth, amid a sustained economic recovery in the wake of COVID-19 disruptions. The manufacturing sector grew at a softer rate (7.2% vs 18% in Q1), with output continuing to grow in all clusters except for biomedicals. Also, construction activity slowed (66.3% vs 117.5%), but remained strong due to low base effects given the slow resumption of construction activities after the Circuit Breaker period last year.

On a quarterly basis, the economy advanced 1.3%, after a downwardly revised 1.4% contraction in Q2.
