Business & Economy

Singapore’s pro-business reputation is renowned throughout the world and has even earned the island nation the moniker Singapore Inc.

But Singapore Inc. is more than a metaphor. It’s a testament to how sound business strategies, aligned with a robust legal framework that regulates but does not stifle business opportunity, can drive a nation’s economic success. 

A key component in Singapore’s recipe for success is business integrity. When the city-state won its full independence in 1965, it turned its back on its freewheeling past as a thriving but corrupt, crime-infested British colony.
