Report Published: "Singapore Infrastructure Report Q3 2015"

We continue to expect construction growth in Singapore to moderate over the coming years, and forecast the sector to grow by 2. 8 % in 2015. A combination of softening property demand, stricter immigration policies and a weaker export outlook will weigh on construction activity. We expect a pickup in construction beyond 2020 due to plans by the government to expand the country's urban railway network.

Key Trends And Developments

* We believe that Singapore's construction sector will continue to moderate over the coming years, and forecast the sector to grow by 2.8% in 2015. This represents a significant slowdown from the 10-year historical average growth rate of 8.8% registered between 2005 and 2014 annually.
* The slowdown is largely attributed to softening residential property demand, which will have a knock-on impact on the residential building segment. At the same time, stricter immigration policies, longer construction periods and a weaker export outlook will limit construction activity over the coming quarters.
* A bright spot within the sector will be public infrastructure projects which include major healthcare and infrastructure works, such as the remaining contracts for the upcoming MRT lines and Changi Airport Terminal 5.
* We believe 2020 will be a turning point for the construction sector, largely driven by government plans to double the country's urban railway network from the current 178km to about 360km by 2030.
