Singapore may not top its 2025 GDP surge but can still defy blow from US tariffs in 2026
Trump’s 2025 tariff hikes raise risks for Singapore’s export‑dependent economy.
US tariffs introduced in 2025, raising average import duties to the highest since World War II, create a persistent threat to Singapore’s trade‑driven growth. While analysts believe Singapore can still achieve sufficient economic growth to keep unemployment low and wages rising in 2026, the economy remains vulnerable to swings in global demand and protectionist policies from major trading partners.
