SG60 IPS-SBF Conference: Dialogue with Deputy Prime Minister Mr Gan Kim Yong

Dialogue with Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Trade and Industry, Mr Gan Kim Yong

What is the outlook for the global economy over the next decade in this era of radical uncertainty?

How will the wavering faith in globalisation, rising geostrategic rivalry, the Intelligence Revolution, the climate crisis, and the cry for inclusive growth for all, affect the fortunes of developed and emerging economies, especially those in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region? How will global cities, including Singapore, remain relevant in the new international and regional value chains?

The SG60 IPS-SBF Conference provides a platform for global thought-leaders, policymakers, business leaders and academics to analyse the interaction of complex trends. These include the fragmentation of the liberal multilateral order towards more mercantilist orientations in economic strategy; the shifting policy accent from multilateralism to “minilateralism” resulting in a realignment of global value chains, which are themselves responses to changes in international tax regimes on goods and digital services; and the mainstreaming of environmental sustainability, digitalisation and artificial intelligence, among other trends.
