Singapore is the world???s largest exporter of iron ore, accounting for over three quarters of global seaborne exports in 2020. The country`s close proximity to major production hubs in Asia and its strategic location at the entrance of key shipping routes have made it an attractive destination for both imports and exports. In addition, Singapore relatively low-cost infrastructure makes it ideal for efficient transportation and storage of iron ore. This has enabled Singapore to become one of the most important trading centers within the Asian region when it comes to this commodity.
Increasing Demand from China ??? The increasing demand from China, which is now the world???s biggest consumer and importer of iron ore, is driving up prices in global markets. Chinese steelmakers are consuming more iron ore than ever before as their economy continues to grow despite a slowdown due to Covid-19 restrictions.Improved Shipping Routes ??? Singapore well established shipping network provides access to various parts around the world that can be used as distribution points or transhipment ports allowing traders easier access into new markets.Low Production Costs - As mentioned previously, Singapore has some advantages over other countries when it comes to producing steel products such as lower manufacturing costs due to cheaper labor rates and less stringent regulations regarding environmental protection
Volatility in Prices - Despite being one of the main producers/exporters of Iron Ore globally, volatility in prices remain an issue with supply side disruption often leading towards pricing instabilities on international markets.Environmental Regulations - With growing awareness about climate change many governments have started introducing stricter environmental regulations making production costlier thus impacting profitability margin.Depleting Resources ??? Being amongst top ten nations with highest reserves means depletion will happen if no substitutes are found soon enough
Major players operating within this market include Rio Tinto Plc, Vale SA, Anglo American plc ETC
The outbreak of Covid 19 had a significant impact on almost all sectors including Iron Ore Market. Initially there was a huge slump because all activities related either directly or indirectly came grinding halt across borders resulting fall in demand as well prices dropped significantly during first few months but since then market recovered gradually with help from Chinese government push towards infrastructural spending thus returning back near pre pandemic levels eventually.
