## Why it matters

Singapore's most important economic strategy document since the 2017 Committee on the Future Economy: the first to state that growth no longer equals jobs, and to tie AI subsidies to worker outcomes. The National AI Council, the four National AI Missions, Kampong AI and the National AI Impact Programme all sit inside this framework.

## Summary

The final report of the Economic Strategy Review, published in June 2026 under the title "Securing Growth and Good Jobs in a Changing World". Eight thrusts and 32 recommendations, built on the judgment that growth no longer automatically brings the same number of jobs. Thrust 2 positions Singapore as a global leader in AI solutions; thrusts 5 to 7 cover how growth turns into jobs in the AI era: no slowing of AI to protect jobs, but government support for enterprise AI must show worker outcomes.
