3 Economic indicators Over the first three quarters of 2015, government budget expenditures expanded by 11% compared to the same time period in Operating expenditures rose by 9%, boosted by spending on social development and security and external relations. Development expenditures, which account for between one quarter to one-fifth of the overall budget, rose by 18% in the first three quarters of 2015 compared to the same period in the prior year. Government revenues have grown approximately 6% annually since 2011 and in aggregate have comprised nearly one-fifth of overall GDP on average. Strong revenue expansion and modest public spending is expected to result in a budget surplus, though the surplus is expected to be smaller than in recent years. The government debt-to-gdp ratio has grown over the past several years and is expected to exceed 24% in Budget 2 Government allocation Total in Q1-Q3 2015: S$40b S$ b Total Operating expenditure revenue Development expenditure S$ b CAGR f: 6% e 2016f 3 Primary budget surplus % of GDP e 2016f Notes: e = estimate f = forecast Sources: Accountant-General's Department, Ministry of Finance Singapore Department of Statistics, Haver Analytics (via Oxford Economics) 4 Government debt/gdp ratio % e 2014e 2015e 2016f Pre-Budget Brief
4 Economic trends Real GDP vs. CPI % *2016 GDP: 2.3%* CPI: 0.5%* e 2015e 2016f Current macro conditions imply that real GDP growth in 2016 could range between %, with the outlook tempered by weakening prospects for global trade and a slowdown in China. A projected increase in government spending, however, could boost growth. For 2016, inflation expectations are low due to global and domestic factors. Trade (goods and services) *2016 S$ b Exports: 776.5* Imports: 671.6* e 2016f Singapore s exports may face significant headwinds in 2016 due to weak economic activity in key export markets such as China and Malaysia. Nonetheless, with increased regional integration via the ASEAN Economic Community and free trade agreements, Singapore can further position itself as the region s preeminent services producer, thus strengthening the rest of ASEAN as a manufacturing base. Net international reserves S$ b *As of 18 Jan : 264.4* Singapore s foreign reserves are forecast to continue to grow. The current account surplus, which accounts for the equivalent of one-quarter of GDP, is expected to remain sizeable over the next several years e 2016f Sector growth % Manufacturing Construction Wholesale and retail trade Accomodation Transportation and food services and storage Finance and insurance Business services The services sector, which makes up around two-thirds of the economy, is likely to drive growth in 2016, with solid household spending and growth in government-related services being key contributors. An increase in global risk aversion, however, could dampen prospects. 1Q15 2Q15 3Q15 Notes: e = estimate f = forecast Sources: Singapore Department of Statistics, Haver Analytics (via Oxford Economics) Bank for International Settlements, Haver Analytics (via Oxford Economics) Ministry of Trade and Industry Singapore 2 Pre-Budget Brief 2016
