Singapore’s Ministry of Social and Family Development has released its Family Trends Report 2025, offering a deep dive into how families are evolving — and what that might mean for the nation’s future.

While two-child households remain the norm, there’s a noticeable uptick in one-child families and a growing number of women reaching their 40s without children. At the same time, policies like paternity leave and childcare support have gained traction, and more parents are tapping into flexible work arrangements.

But beyond the numbers lies a bigger question: What do these shifts mean for Singapore’s long-term population outlook? Are we simply seeing changing preferences, or are we headed for deeper demographic challenges — from low fertility to an ageing society?

On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Dr Tan Poh Lin, Senior Research Fellow, Institute of Policy Studies, National University of Singapore, to find out more.

Singapore shares rose today as investors continue to mull uncertainties relating to global trade. 

The Straits Times Index was up 0.48% at 4,051.30 points at 2.30pm Singapore time, with a value turnover of S$956.01M seen in the broader market.

In terms of counters to watch, we have Singapore Airlines. The national carrier said yesterday that its proposed joint venture with Malaysia Airlines received conditional approval from the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore. 

Elsewhere, from how investors are reacting to US President Donald Trump’s tariff letters to 14 countries, to movements in the Australian dollar after the Reserve Bank of Australia held its cash rate in a surprise move – more international headlines remain in focus. 

On Market View, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian unpacked the developments with Kelvin Wong, Senior Analyst, OANDA.

And one unlikely hotspot is emerging as a global gold haven: Singapore.

Behind the doors of a sleek, heavily guarded facility near Changi Airport, billions in gold bars are quietly being stored — shipped in by investors looking for safety, control, and distance from risk.

So what’s driving the world’s wealthiest to park their gold in the Lion City? And what does it say about the future of wealth protection?

On Wealth Tracker, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Gregor Gregersen, Founder, Silver Bullion Group, to find out more.
