Singapore’s economy is expected to double by 2040, driven by advanced services, technology manufacturing, trade, and strategic investments, maintaining stability and global connectivity for sustained growth.
Singapore’s Economic Future
Singapore is entering a new era of sustained growth, with projections indicating its GDP could double by 2040 to between US$1.2 trillion and US$1.4 trillion, up from US$547 billion in 2024. The country boasts a high GDP per capita exceeding US$90,000 and trade volumes more than tripling its annual output, solidifying its status as one of the world’s most advanced and stable economies.
Focus on Economic Composition
The next phase of Singapore’s growth hinges on the development and diversification of its economy, rather than merely attracting capital. The nation is transforming its industrial sectors while maintaining fiscal discipline and competitiveness, ensuring sustainable and high-quality expansion.
Growth Engines and Strategies
From 2025 to 2040, growth will be propelled by three interconnected sectors: advanced services, technology-driven manufacturing, and global trade integration. Strategic projects like the Tuas Megaport and Changi Terminal 5, along with extensive trade agreements such as RCEP, reinforce Singapore’s role as a key regional hub and global gateway for multinational companies.
