MARKET TRENDS

SINGAPORE ECONOMY

SINGAPORE REPORT | DECEMBER 2016

2 |

Donald Trump’s victory as US President, the ‘Brexit’ referendum, and the slowing Chinese economy are all impacting Singapore’s economic growth and business sentiment. In 4Q 2016, the gross domestic product (GDP) grew robustly by 2.9% year-on-year (y-o-y), faster than the 1.2% growth in the preceding quarter. The annual economic growth expanded by 2.0%, slightly faster than the 1.9% growth in 2015.

The manufacturing sector was the best performer as its growth leaped to 11.0% in 4Q 2016, from 1.8% in 3Q 2016. The construction sector contracted by 2.8%, extending the 2.2% contraction in 3Q 2016. Growth was weighed down primarily by sluggish private sector construction activities, which shrank on the back of a decline in private residential and private industrial works.

Consumer prices posted the smallest fall in two years in October during 4Q 2016 as it fell 0.1% from a year ago. This is the 24th straight month of decline, according to the Department of Statistics. CPI- All Items rose to 0.2% in December 2016, performing slightly better than 0.0% the month before, on the back of a larger increase in private road transport cost. Overall, the declines in housing & utilities and transportation costs offset the rise in food and education prices, causing the overall consumer price index (CPI) to shrink by 0.5% y-o-y.

Both the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) said global oil prices are expected to increase in 2017, and that all-items or headline CPI has troughed and is projected to pick up to 0.5-1.5% in 2017, from around -0.5% in 2016, largely reflecting the rise in private road transport cost due to the expiry of a road tax rebate for petrol vehicles,

higher petrol prices and the upward revision of car park charges with effect from 1 December 2016.

Against the backdrop of a slowing local workforce and tightened foreign manpower supply, the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) reported total employment contracted by 2,700 in 3Q 2016, following slower growth in the past two quarters. Owing mainly to contractions in the manufacturing and construction industries, this is the first decline since 1Q 2015. In addition, over the first nine months of 2016, total employment grew by 14,500, the lowest growth since 2009. Singapore’s weak labour productivity levels improved by 0.8% in 1H 2016 over the same period in 2015, and this was an improvement from the 0.3% growth in 2H 2015 over 2H 2014.

Furthermore, MOM has stepped up its efforts to transform the industries and create quality jobs through the SkillsFuture and Adapt & Grow initiatives amid the on-going economic transition. MOM also recently announced a new requirement on mandatory retrenchment notifications that will take efect from 1 January 2017. Under the Workforce Singapore Agency Act, employers will need to notify the Ministry of retrenchments within five working days after they provide notice of retrenchment to affected employees, if five or more employees are retrenched within a six-month period. This policy has the potential to become a model for countries that want to help workers hurt by globalization without erecting protectionist barriers, as reported in a Bloomberg report.

Taking into account the global uncertainties, and barring the full materialisation of downside risks, the Singapore economy is expected to grow at a modest pace of 1.0%to 3.0% in 2017.

SINGAPORE REPORT | DECEMBER 2016

Office space prices in 4Q 2016 declined by 0.6%, as compared to the 0.4% drop in the preceding quarter. Rentals of office space in 4Q 2016 also fell by 1.8% compared with the decline of 1.1% in the previous quarter. For the whole of 2016, prices and rentals by 2.8% and 8.2% respectively, compared with the 0.1% and 6.5% decline in 2015. As at the end of 4Q 2016, there was a total supply of about 786,000m2 GFA of office space in the pipeline, compared with the 879,000m2 GFA of office space in the pipeline in the previous quarter. The island-wide vacancy rate of office space at the end of 4Q 2016 rose to 11.1% from 10.4% at the end of the previous quarter.

Retail space shared similar weakness. For the whole of 2016, prices and rentals of retail space fell by 5.4% and 8.3% respectively, compared with the 0.8% and 4.1% decline in 2015. As at the end of 4Q 2016, there was a total supply of 595,000m2 GFA of retail space from projects in the pipeline, compared with the 652,000m2 GFA of retail space in the pipeline in the previous quarter.

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) warned the uncertain economy ahead means Singaporean households should review their investments and take note of emerging risks such as those in property and corporate bonds. The warning comes amid prolonged weak growth, low interest rates and rising political risks, which have raised concerns about global financial stability.

While Singapore undergoes domestic economic restructuring, employment prospects continue to moderate and the local real estate scene for commercial and residential properties remain still. In all the real estate market segments, a supply overhang looms.

There has been increasingly fewer investors and overseas buyers in the market and home prices have fallen since the introduction of the cooling measures and TDSR (Total Debt Servicing Ratio). According to the Urban Development Authority (URA) islandwide Property Price Index (PPI), prices of all private residential homes (landed and non-landed) in 4Q 2016 suffered its thirteenth consecutive quarter of decline as it weakened by 0.5%, compared with the 1.5% fall in 3Q 2016. For the whole of 2016, prices fell 3.1%, compared with the 3.7% decline in 2015. On the other hand, sales transactions volume for private residential units rose as the residential property market adjusted to lower prices.

URA reported as at the end of 4Q 2016, there was a total supply of 40,913 uncompleted private residential units (excluding ECs) in the pipeline, compared with the 43,693 units in the previous quarter and of this number, 19,071 units remained unsold. After adding the supply of 9,635 EC units in the pipeline, there were 50,548 units in the pipeline. Of the EC units in the pipeline, 3,970 units remained unsold. In total, 23,041 units (including ECs) remained unsold.

SINGAPORE REPORT | DECEMBER 2016

In 4Q 2016, the construction sector shrank by 2.8% year-on-year (y-o-y), extending the 2.2% contraction in the previous quarter, on the back of stagnating private sector construction activities. For the whole of 2016, the construction sector expanded marginally by 0.2%, a big contrast from the 3.9% growth in 2015, based on data from the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI). The MTI also reported employment in the construction sector contracted by 5,200 on the back of sluggish private sector construction activities. This was the first quarterly employment decline in the sector since the first quarter of 2015.

The construction industry is expected to decelerate further in tandem with the slow economy and the declining private sector demand, which has fallen by about half that of 2015, and will likely to continue to be under pressure in 2017. According to the Singapore Contractors Association Ltd (SCAL), construction firms are bracing themselves for headwinds in 2017 caused by tightening manpower, rising costs, stiffer regulatory controls, and lower margins amidst stiffer competition. For Budget 2017, the SCAL urged the government to help reduce construction companies’ business costs, step up demand through public sector projects and nurture the industry in preparing to build for Singapore future economy.

The government’s long term plan is to raise construction productivity by up to 3.0% per year. According to the Building Construction Authority (BCA), site construction productivity has increased by an average of 1.3% per year since 2009. The BCA unveiled a research and development (R&D) roadmap that aims to raise productivity within the construction industry. The roadmap identifies 35 technologies under seven clusters, which include robotics,

DfMA (Design for Manufacturing and Assembly) and 3D printing, and is intended to help contractors change the way they construct buildings as well as sustain productivity improvements in the long run.

Aside from the R&D roadmap, the government is also looking at stipulating productivity outcomes as one of the requirements in future Government Land Sale (GLS) tenders, without mandating any specific technology. Currently, contractors are mandated to use prefabrication, pre-finished volumetric construction (PPVC) in certain GLS sites.

In order to further boost adoption of technology and innovation to raise productivity, the SCAL called for the Productivity and Innovation Credit (PIC) scheme, which was introduced in 2010 and will expire in 2017, to be extended as statistics showed the take-up rate has been increasing over the years. With an overcapacity in the construction industry, the SCAL also called for the government to bring forward some public sector projects to tie over the fall in demand in private sector projects.

Most recently, lift reliability has been a subject of much concern throughout 2016 after a spate of lift malfunctions in various housing estates across Singapore. This led to BCA issuing a list of recommended upgrades for existing elevators, to further improve their safety and performance as part of its on-going review of lift regulations.

BCA’s Tender Price Index (TPI) decreased by -1.4% in 3Q 2016 from 2Q 2016 on the back of higher labour costs and intensifying competition over a shrinking pool of jobs. Tender prices and project margins are projected to trend downwards into 2017.

The global world have high diplomatic concerns over the political risks from Trump administration’s big changes in economic and military policy directions. There is growing unease within the European Union (EU). China’s economic trend treaded cautiously as it logged the same pace of growth for the first three quarters of the year amidst asset bubbles and high debt levels. In October 2016, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) estimates the world to grow at 3.1% in 2016 and 3.4% in 2017.

The U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) expanded 1.9% at a seasonally adjusted annual rate in the final quarter of 2016, according to the Commerce Department. This follows the impressive 3.5% growth in 3Q 2016 which recorded the best growth rate in two years, buoyed by strong consumer spending. For the second time since 2008, the U.S. Federal Reserve’s raised its benchmark short term interest rate by 0.25% to 0.50-0.75%, on the back of a stable inflation rate and a reasonable job market. The central bank further signalled it may raise interest rates three more times in 2017, one more than what it had predicted in September 2016 as a result of expectations of a massive government stimulus under Trump. Besides, Trump’s resolute vision of U.S. trade policies have already influenced the dollar’s strengthening since his election.

The euro zone’s economic growth was stable for 2016. The GDP grew a modest 0.3% in 2Q 2016 and 3Q 2016 after a 0.5% rise in 1Q 2016. Germany has a presidential vote in February 2017, the Dutch go to polls in March 2017 and the first round of the French presidential election starts a month later. The European Commission cut its GDP forecasts for the euro area in 2017 on increased political uncertainty and weaker global trade and expects the currency bloc to grow 1.7% in 2016 and 1.5% in 2017, after climbing 2.0% in 2015.

As the world’s third largest economy, Japan’s quarterly GDP growth peaked at 0.6% in 1Q 2016 before slowing down for the subsequent quarters of the

year, according to Cabinet Office data. The economy grew 0.2% in 4Q 2016, from the previous quarter, according to preliminary data, the slowest pace for the year. Weak domestic activity cast doubt on hopes for a sustainable recovery in the long run as sluggish household spending has kept the country in prolonged deflation. Government statistics show tepid annual wage rises, so it also adds to concerns that the benefits of the “Abenomics” stimulus drive have yet to spread to households. Japan’s overall GDP grew at 1.0% for the whole of 2016, helped by an increase in exports in the second half of the year. Data showed overseas demand accounted for about half of the Japan’s GDP growth in 2016, therefore the country remains particularly vulnerable to any new trade barriers from the U.S., which is Japan’s biggest export market after China.

China, being the world’s second largest economy does not have full immunity from Trump’s trade measures too. Its sluggish exports is expected to face more pressure should Trump’s administration impose tough protectionist measures. The GDP grew 6.8% year-on-year (y-o-y) in 4Q 2016 on the back of higher government spending and record bank lending. For the whole of 2016, the economy grew 6.7% which kept in line with governmental estimates of 6.5%-7.0%. Although this may be the country’s slowest pace of growth in 26 years, it remains within the range for Beijing to meet its longer-term goal of doubling GDP and per capita income by 2020 from 2010 levels. The figures likely signalled that China’s economic growth is starting to stabilize amid the country’s transition toward domestic consumption and away from manufacturing- and investment-led growth. The government is also pushing through painful structural reforms to help deal with rising debt and real estate risks in their cooling housing market. Amid those signs of stabilisation, China is expected to lower their economic growth target to around 6.5% in 2017 for allow for more room to push reforms to contain debt risks.
