Budget 2026: Scaling Singapore businesses’ global footprint amid rising risks

SINGAPORE Budget 2026 comes at a pivotal time. Despite greater geopolitical uncertainty, there are opportunities for companies here to expand overseas, but they need additional support and must have a risk-taking appetite.
