  • Engage and collaborate with stakeholders across the public and private sectors (e.g. industry and business leaders, trade association and chambers, and unions) to glean diverse perspectives on the key shifts affecting Singapore's economic operating environment and its implications, and in so doing, support the Government's review of economic strategies and policies.
  • Galvanise government agencies to better involve the private sector in cocreating economic strategies and ideas, through privatepublic collaborative tools such as the Industry Transformation Maps (ITMs) and the Alliances for Action.
  • Govern and facilitate the prudent use of budget and manpower resources to support Singapore's economic proposals and programmes. This is done through the design and review of strategic resource allocation frameworks and balancing across wholeofeconomy needs.
