We find with this survey that most Swedish companies in Italy are more optimistic about the future of the market. As the EU’s second-largest industrial producer, Italy offers a diverse range of business opportunities for Swedish companies across multiple sectors.

Economically, the Nordics form a significant global player when considered together. This report shows that Nordic collaboration is more important than ever.

Through this survey, we reveal the highly positive outlook that Swedish companies have of India as a market and the growing business interests shared by the two countries. With a nominal GDP of USD 4.27 trillion, India has one of the world’s most robust economies, but it’s also growing and adapting to meet the needs of the future.

Our survey shows that the majority of Swedish companies operating in Singapore are profitable and anticipate turnover growth. The Southeast Asian city-state is a major geopolitical and economic player, yet world events and recent disorder in global trade have created a ‘wait-and-see’ attitude.
