National Income Estimates

Singapore adopts the output, expenditure, and income approaches for compiling national income aggregates. The concepts, definitions and methodologies given in the United Nations’ publication “System of National Accounts, 2008” (SNA) are closely followed.

National Accounts

A significant improvement in the latest benchmarking of Singapore’s national accounts from reference year 2010 to 2015 is the adoption of the SNA recommendation to compile annually reweighted chain volume measures (CVM) of GDP.  

Find out more on the chain linking of real GDP from the video in the 'Visualising Data' section below.
