贸工部收窄全年经济预测 下修5巴仙至7巴仙
因疫情导致全球经济情况恶化,加上我国上半年经济表现疲弱,促使贸工部向下收窄全年经济预测,从原本预测萎缩4巴仙至7巴仙,下修至5巴仙至7巴仙。
据贸工部公布的第二季新加坡经济调查报告,我国第二季经济萎缩13.2巴仙,情况则比第一季萎缩0.3巴仙更糟糕。
其中季度经济表现恶化最为主要的原因为我国从4月7日至6月1日开始实行阻断措施,加上疫情爆发导致全球陷入经济衰退,才致使外部需求疲弱。
经季节性调整后,今年第二季的经济环比萎缩13.1%,萎缩幅度比第一季的0.8%更大。
其中,造成最大冲击为建筑业,第二季萎缩59.3%,相比上一季的萎缩1.2%更糟糕。其中因为几乎全部建筑活动在病毒阻断期间暂停。
而住宿和食品服务业萎缩41.4%,情况同样比第一季的萎缩23.8%严重。
再来,制造业萎缩0.7%,扭转之前的7.9%涨幅。批发及零售贸易业萎缩8.2%;交通与储存业萎缩39.2%。
资讯和通信业也稍微萎缩0.5%,金融和保险业则扩张3.4%。商业服务领域和其他服务业分别萎缩20.2%和17.8%。
