The 2011 Import and Export Market for Electro-Diagnostic Equipment in Singapore

On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on electro-diagnostic equipment in Singapore face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying electro-diagnostic equipment to Singapore? How important is Singapore compared to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the imports of electro-diagnostic equipment vary from one country of origin to another in Singapore? On the supply side, Singapore also exports electro-diagnostic equipment. Which countries receive the most exports from Singapore? How are these exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers?

This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for electro-diagnostic equipment in Singapore. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics which appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for electro-diagnostic equipment for those countries serving Singapore via exports, or supplying from Singapore via imports. It does so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.

In what follows, Chapter 2 begins by summarizing where Singapore fits into the world market for imported and exported electro-diagnostic equipment. The total level of imports and exports on a worldwide basis, and those for Singapore in particular, is estimated using a model which aggregates across over 150 key country markets and projects these to the current year. From there, each country represents a percent of the world market. This market is served from a number of competitive countries of origin. Based on both demand- and supply-side dynamics, market shares by country of origin are then calculated across each country market destination. These shares lead to a volume of import and export values for each country and are aggregated to regional and world totals. In doing so, we are able to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of both the value of each market and the share that Singapore is likely to receive this year. From these figures, rankings are calculated to allow managers to prioritize Singapore compared to other major country markets. In this way, all the figures provided in this report are forecasts that can be combined with internal information sources for strategic planning purposes.

Catherine Soteras holds a baby shortly before his surgery aboard U.S. Military Sealift Command (MSC) hospital ship USNS Mercy (T-AH 19), during the ship's visit to provide humanitarian and civic assistance to the people of Bangladesh. The ship is in the third month of a scheduled five-month deployment to host nations in the Pacific Islands, and South and Southeast Asia, having recently completed 24 days of humanitarian assistance to the people of the southern Philippines. Mercy's mission is being carried out in conjunction with nongovernmental organizations, and in close coordination and partnership with local medical care professionals. Volunteers from Project HOPE, Operation Smile and the University of California at San Diego Pre-Dental Society joined Mercy, along with a contingent of military medical specialists from the U.S., India, Singapore, and Canada. Mercy is uniquely capable of supporting medical and humanitarian assistance needs and is configured with special medical equipment and a robust multi-specialized medical team that can provide a range of services ashore as well as aboard the ship.

On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on x-ray, radiography, or radiotherapy apparatus in Singapore face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying x-ray, radiography, or radiotherapy apparatus to Singapore? How important is Singapore compared to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the imports of x-ray, radiography, or radiotherapy apparatus vary from one country of origin to another in Singapore? On the supply side, Singapore also exports x-ray, radiography, or radiotherapy apparatus. Which countries receive the most exports from Singapore? How are these exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers?
