The Singapore government will release its annual budget on February 16 which will spell out its objectives and allocation of funds for the coming year. The budget is expected to address major issues concerning the environment and sustainability objectives, the economic impact of the pandemic, workforce transformation, and putting in place new drivers for continued growth and employment for Singapore.

The Economic Society of Singapore is organizing a post-Budget 2021 panel to present views on what promises to be a highly consequential budget. ESS has assembled a distinguished panel of speakers who, being well-versed in their knowledge of the Singapore economy and international economic affairs, will have much to contribute to our understanding of the budget’s implications.
