After a year that saw the Straits Times Index reach record highs, making Singapore one of the world’s best-performing stock markets, Singapore also surpassed all economic expectations, recording a 4.8% GDP growth in 2025. However, due to the evolving situation in the Middle East, the outlook for GDP growth in 2026 is likely to be weaker than previously expected. Against this backdrop, personal finance events in 2026 will be especially valuable, offering attendees practical insights and strategies to navigate a market that promises both opportunity and challenge.
Whether you just entering the jobs market or more experienced individual, or a new or seasoned investor, be sure to note down these upcoming events in your calendar and make them part of your personal finance journey.
