Singapore’s digital and technology-enabled economy is expected to remain structurally supported in the near term, though growth is becoming more dependent on execution and capital deployment rather than breakthrough innovation, SGX said. Data from the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) show that manufacturing and modern services continue to be anchored by electronics, semiconductors, and precision engineering, underscoring Singapore’s role in regional technology supply chains. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has likewise identified sustained technology-related investment as a key driver for economies integrated into global value chains, despite rising geopolitical risks and cost pressures. “In this environment, growth in the digital economy is increasingly shaped by deployment, integration, and utilisation rather than frontier innovation alone,” the report said. https://sbr.com.sg/in-focus/digital-economy-holds-firm-growth-turns-execution-led (ICE SINGAPORE)
