Six items on Deloitte's wish list for Budget 2018

SINGAPORE (Jan 5):  With Minister for Finance Heng Swee Keat to deliver this year’s Budget Statement in Parliament on Feb 19, Deloitte has released its wishlist for Budget 2018.

This is broadly shaped by the twin requirements of maintaining competitiveness and fiscal sustainability with a key focus on ensuring that Singapore’s tax base is not eroded by structural shifts in the global economy, says the multinational professional services firm in press release on Thursday.

Deloitte’s Budget 2018 Feedback is broadly organised along five broad themes: Ensuring a sustainable revenue base, adopting a multi-faceted approach towards innovation; enhancing the tax regime for small medium enterprises (SMEs); building an inclusive society; and keeping pace with tax developments.
