Analysis
What this data actually tells you
Singapore markets itself explicitly and successfully as Asia’s regional headquarters and professional-services hub, and the sector’s growth targets are official government policy under the ITM framework.
The most current, independently-measured value-added figure is a genuine gap in available research, so this content does not present the 2016 baseline or the 2025 target as current output.

Who uses Singapore professional, scientific and technical activities ownership data
The three checks this sector's data is most often run for.
Regional-Hub-Policy-Target Verification
Under the government’s Professional Services Industry Transformation Map, the sector, architecture and engineering, consulting, accounting, legal and advertising, targeted value-added growth of 3-4% per annum toward S$27 billion by 2025, building on a 2016 baseline of roughly S$25 billion (6.5% of GDP) and employing over 230,000 people. A current (2024/2025) independently-measured value-added figure was not confirmed in this research; counterparties verify current sector-output figures directly against SingStat’s services-sector national accounts rather than treat the 2016 baseline or the 2025 policy target as a current measurement.
