Hello everyone! 🤗Hope everyone is coping well as the semester is ending! 📚📔😬April’s article publication is about how the Global tax deal affects investment deals.🧐

The secret 🤫to Singapore being able to build up the economy in less than half a century due to various measures taken by the government with one of them being keeping its corporate tax low to attract more companies to set up operations here. 🏢📈👩‍💻

Group of 7 (G7) nations have recently agreed on 5th June 2021 to set a global minimum corporate tax rate of at least 15%. This will make it harder for Singapore to attract investors and have a negative impact 📉❌on Singapore fiscal’s policy, which its impact will stay undetermined with details still being finalized.

Hence to enhance competitiveness🤑 and improve the business environment, Singapore needs to change their budget and borrowing methods to have sufficient revenue. 💵This means that Singapore needs to put more focus on non-tax factors and be constantly on the move, continuing to restructure, reorganize and reposition themselves for better opportunities to come.🤝

Singapore will continue to take part in the G-20 Inclusive Framework to work out tax solutions that Singapore can adapt to. Through consultation with affected industries, Singapore will adjust its tax system for fairness to everyone.

It’s time for March article publication 🥳🥳 Hope everyone is enjoying their recess week! 🤗March article publication is about the revision of Additional Buyer’s Stamp Duty (ABSD) rates. 📈

ABSD was first introduced in December 2011 to control the surge in demand for the property markets and act as a “cooling measure” ❄️🌬to discourage investors and foreigners from purchasing more than one residential property in Singapore. 🙅‍♀️🙅‍♂️This is to help Singaporeans purchase residential properties at a relatively reasonable value.👍

With effect from 16th December 2021, ABSD’s revised rates are as follows 🏠 :

Singaporean Citizens (SC) buying first residential property: NA
SC buying second residential property: 12% —> 17%
SC buying third and subsequent residential property: 15% —> 25%

Singapore Permanent Resident (SPR) buying first residential property: 5%
SPR buying second residential property: 15% —> 25%
SPR buying third and subsequent residential property: 15% —> 30%

Foreigners (FR) buying any residential properties: 20% —> 30%
Entities buying any residential properties: 25% —> 35%(Plus additional 5% for Housing Developers, non-remittable)

It's time for February publication! 🙌🏼😄 We'll be referring to a Bloomberg article about the tax details that will be disclosed for the 2022 budget in February.

In his annual New Year’s address, Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong signaled possible tax changes in the upcoming budget. He cited that this is to raise funds for social programs and expansion of the nation’s healthcare system as the economy is emerging from Covid-19. 🦠🏥

Due to covid-19, the financial hub predicts a 3% to 5% increase in gross domestic product in 2022, which is slower than in 2021. This is due to the fact that tourism, consumer spending, and construction are not expected to reach pre-Covid levels. Furthermore, in its fight to keep the economy afloat throughout the pandemic, the government has relied "heavily" on past reserves, resulting in a budget deficit for the past two years. With the economy slowly but progressively making a comeback, PM Lee plans to “start moving” on building back its national reserves through accumulating tax revenue from various sources. 💰💰

As a result, the proposed increase in the existing GST rate of 7% is likely to materialise, with the implementation date being brought forward to 2022. Other forms of taxation are also being considered by policymakers. 📈💵

Better-off citizens would contribute more, with everyone else contributing at least a little amount to share the burden. The government has set aside a S$6 billion ($4.4 billion) package to ensure that the GST hike does not affect the majority of Singaporean households, particularly the lower-income families. 😊💪🏻

Mr Lee is "quietly confident" that the country can cope with the impacts of the omicron variant and that the country is "greatly strengthened" compared to two years ago as a result of the increased vaccination campaign, which now includes young children. 💉💉
