In recent years, the Singapore consulting sector has been a big success, being driven by a series of factors that underline its strategic importance in the regional and global economy. In this context, demand for consulting services in management, technology, as well as financial advisory has increased, as the nation adopts a business and innovation hub status in Southeast Asia. The rapid digital transformation in industries has been one of the main catalysts for this growth. More and more businesses in Singapore are looking to hiring expert guidance on how to adopt new technologies, improve operation efficiency and boost customer engagement. In particular, the rise of fintech has been driving many financial institutions to hire consultants to innovate and streamline their service offerings.
Additionally, Singapore’s strong economic framework and supportive regulatory environment have lured in the multinational corporations and startups alike, thereby further increasing the demand for consulting services. The influx has spurred local consulting firms to broaden their service offering and strengthen their expertise, and the race to innovate and work closely with each other has been born out of this. On the other hand, the global emphasis on sustainability as well as corporate social responsibility has pushed organizations to find consultants who can offer knowledge on running a sustainable business and environmental regulations compliance. It is no surprise this trend reflects a growing awareness amongst consumers and the role of consultants in driving corporate strategies to meet global sustainability goals.
It is with the view of staying updated with the emerging trends in the region’s business landscape that Asia Business Outlook has come up with a special issue containing stories of consultants who have demonstrated their capability through their expertise. To strengthen the business landscape with their tightly-knit and result-oriented approach, they are setting new standards of effectiveness.
