We recently compiled a list of the 30 Wealthiest People in Singapore and in this article, we will look at the richest person in Singapore. According to the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI), the Singaporean economy rose at a more rapid pace than expected in Q1 2024. The GDP increased by 2.7% year-over-year, recording the strongest growth in the past 18 months. This marks a positive outlook for the country’s economy, as the economists’ predictions for growth were 2.5%. However, certain areas of concern remain, including inflation which has calmed down compared to its peak earlier this year. However, it still was at 3.1% in April. The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) expects moderate inflation throughout the year, averaging between 2.5% and 3.5%. The MTI has maintained the country’s GDP growth forecast for 2024 at 1-3%. As of 2024, Singapore has a GDP of $525.3 billion as reported by the IMF.
