Скачать или смотреть Singapore’s 2025 Economic Warning: Slowdown, Trade Risks, and the F&B Crisis Explained

Is Singapore facing an economic crisis in 2025? While long regarded as one of Asia’s most resilient economies, the city-state is currently navigating a complex period of slowdown and structural re-adjustment. In this video, we break down the key factors impacting Singapore’s growth, from global trade tensions to the alarming spike in business closures.
What we cover in this video:
• The GDP Slowdown: Why the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and other analysts are warning of technical recession risks and modest growth.
• Global Trade Tensions: How US-led tariff regimes and geopolitical uncertainty are creating downside risks for this trade-dependent nation.
• The F&B Crisis: An in-depth look at why over 3,000 food and beverage outlets closed in late 2024 and early 2025—the highest number in nearly two decades.
• Business & Labor Shifts: Why business confidence among SMEs has plummeted and why workers remain concerned about job security despite low official unemployment rates.
• Crisis or Adjustment? We analyze whether this is a systemic collapse or a necessary structural shift, highlighting Singapore’s fiscal strengths and proactive policy responses.
While the outlook remains cautious, Singapore’s strong reserves and counter-cyclical measures suggest the economy is adapting to a new global reality rather than entering a full-scale collapse.
