Analyst Opinion

The In-App Advertising market in Singapore has been experiencing steady growth in recent years, driven by changing customer preferences and local special circumstances. In this market, customer preferences are shifting towards mobile devices, leading to increased demand for in-app advertising. Additionally, local special circumstances such as high smartphone penetration and a tech-savvy population have contributed to the development of the In-App Advertising market in Singapore.

Customer preferences:
Customers in Singapore are increasingly relying on mobile devices for various activities, including browsing the internet, shopping, and entertainment. This shift in customer preferences has created a lucrative opportunity for in-app advertising. Mobile apps provide a convenient and personalized experience for users, making them an ideal platform for advertisers to reach their target audience. As a result, advertisers are allocating a larger portion of their advertising budgets towards in-app advertising.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the In-App Advertising market in Singapore is the rise of programmatic advertising. Programmatic advertising allows advertisers to automate the buying and selling of ad inventory, making the process more efficient and cost-effective. This trend has gained traction in Singapore, as advertisers seek to optimize their ad spend and reach the right audience at the right time. Programmatic advertising also offers advanced targeting capabilities, enabling advertisers to deliver personalized and relevant ads to users. Another trend in the market is the integration of native advertising in mobile apps. Native ads seamlessly blend with the app's content, providing a non-disruptive and engaging experience for users. This type of advertising is particularly effective in mobile apps, as users are more likely to engage with ads that are integrated into the app's interface. Advertisers are increasingly leveraging native advertising to enhance brand awareness and drive user engagement.

Local special circumstances:
Singapore has one of the highest smartphone penetration rates in the world, with a large portion of the population owning smartphones. This high smartphone penetration has created a fertile ground for in-app advertising, as advertisers can reach a large and diverse audience through mobile apps. Furthermore, Singaporeans are known for their tech-savviness and willingness to adopt new technologies. This tech-savvy population is more receptive to in-app advertising and is more likely to engage with ads on their mobile devices.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The strong economic growth in Singapore has also contributed to the development of the In-App Advertising market. As the economy continues to grow, businesses are expanding their operations and looking for innovative ways to reach their target audience. In-app advertising provides an effective and efficient solution for businesses to promote their products and services to a wide audience. Additionally, the government of Singapore has been supportive of the digital advertising industry, providing a favorable regulatory environment for in-app advertising to thrive. In conclusion, the In-App Advertising market in Singapore is experiencing growth due to changing customer preferences, local special circumstances, and underlying macroeconomic factors. The shift towards mobile devices, the rise of programmatic advertising, and the integration of native advertising in mobile apps are key trends driving the market. The high smartphone penetration rate and tech-savvy population in Singapore have created a conducive environment for the development of the In-App Advertising market. Additionally, the strong economic growth and supportive government policies have further fueled the growth of the market.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2B enterprises. Figures are based on in-app advertising spending and exclude agency commissions, rebates, production costs, and taxes. The market covers ad spending on advertisements displayed within a mobile application.

Modeling approach:

The market size is determined through a combined top-down and bottom-up approach. We use market data from independent databases, the number of application downloads from data partners, survey results taken from our primary research (e.g., the Consumer Insights), and third-party reports to analyze and estimate global in-app advertising spending. To analyze the markets, we start by researching digital advertising in mobile applications for each advertising format, incidents of in-app and mobile browser usage, as well as the time spent in mobile apps by categories. To estimate the market size for each country individually, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific industry associations, such as GDP, mobile users, and digital consumer spending. Lastly, we benchmark key countries and/or regions (e.g., global, the United States, China) with external sources.

Forecasts:

We apply a variety of forecasting techniques, depending on the behavior of the relevant market. For instance, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption.
