- Description
- About the Series
-
This book examines the crucial role of trade and investment in Singapore’s economy. Using globalisation as a backdrop, the author explains both its economic benefits for Singapore and the vulnerabilities which it creates. The book studies the impact of foreign direct investment on the economy before the Global Financial Crisis occurred, and analyses the structural shifts that took place following that shock. Special attention is paid to the impact of free trade agreements and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) on Singapore’s trade and investment strategy. The book concludes with a look at how Singapore might preserve its place in the new globalised economy.
