Singapore’s 2026 budget is the first by the government freshly elected in 2025. It comes as our economy enters a period of exceptional global challenges and uncertainty. Domestically, an ageing population throws up a wide range of issues, such as support for caregivers, employment for older workers, and health and retirement needs. In recent debates about inequality and Singapore’s brand of meritocracy, there have been questions about our education system and approach towards employment support.
Just a day after the reveal of Budget 2026, listen to this recording of our panel of experts — Social Inclusion Project's Dr Ng Kok Hoe, LKYSPP's Dr Tan Shin Bin, SMU's Dr Jacqueline Ho, Dr Nathan Peng and NTU’s Dr Teo Youyenn — as they interrogate what this budget offers, and in the context of today's circumstances, whether this year's budget is sufficient to build a stronger and more inclusive society.

3rd annual Next STEP Conference Closing Fireside Chat with Ravi Menon, Managing Director, Monetary Authority of Singapore, on Response to Geo-Economic Fragmentation.
The Peterson Institute for International Economics (PIIE) and the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy (LKYSPP) at the National University of Singapore are convening the third annual Next STEP Global Conference on November 5-7, 2023, in Singapore.
This years conference will focus on how the intensification of US-China competition has put much of the world in a bind. Economies caught in the middle-those that do not count themselves among the G7 plus China-contain 80 percent of the worlds population and are participants in the vast majority of cross-national transactions. Their interests are at stake, but how should they proceed when the two biggest economic players are at odds? Can their coming together independently of the great powers save global commerce for themselves and the world, or even encourage a return to more responsible behavior by the Chinese and US governments?
