'Manageable' risks ahead for Singapore economy: UOB
Though downside risks abound, they aren't likely to create shocks for the economy, say its economists
Singapore
THE impact of the past two days' Chinese stock market rout on China's economy will be limited, as the country makes a transition towards a more stable and mature financial system, UOB economists have said.
And China's transition is but one of the shifts that will make an impact on Singapore's economy in the year ahead, together with oil prices and other geopolitical risks, but these will not be disrupting Singapore's growth too much, they suggested at a media briefing on Tuesday.
