Starting any kind of business is a risk but starting one in Singapore reduces those risks and turns them into opportunities. Singapore has a very robust economy with low tax and minimal corruption. Singapore also has low unemployment, low inflation and a very stable government. The maximum personal tax rate is 20% and the maximum tax rate for companies is 7% which is a good deal since the company gets to keep more of its profit. The infrastructure is great and a key component in any business is a strategically strong geographical location where Singapore is currently located. There are many more factors to consider but almost all leading to the positive direction.

I think the biggest benefit is the low tax rate. Singapore has some of the lowest personal and corporate income tax rates in the world.

Should I make a mobile app for my business?

Hi everyone! I came across a new online bank app in Singapore, Lucy, and wanted to share. My friend told me about it when I needed to take out extra money, and was going to reach out to a moneylender. I’ve asked my boss for money a few times already, but felt embarrassed to ask again. All I had to do was friend my boss on Lucy, and I was able to request for a loan from her on the app itself. 1. It let me select my loan amount 2. Allowed me to choose loan for how many months 3. Let me choose how much money to pay back monthhly I could even add a personalized message, which was then sent to my boss. My boss accepted my request, and now the both of us are able to see my loans and when I’m paying back. SO much easier! And now I am not embarrassed anymore :) I take loans when I have to, and also have a way to track when to return it.
