Analyst Opinion

The OTT Video market in Singapore is experiencing significant growth and development.

Customer preferences:
Customers in Singapore are increasingly turning to OTT Video platforms for their entertainment needs. The convenience and flexibility offered by these platforms, such as the ability to stream content anytime and anywhere, are highly appealing to consumers. Additionally, the wide variety of content available on OTT Video platforms caters to the diverse tastes and preferences of Singaporean viewers. From local dramas and movies to international blockbusters and popular TV shows, there is something for everyone on these platforms.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the OTT Video market in Singapore is the rise of local content. Singaporean viewers are showing a growing interest in locally-produced content, which has led to an increase in the production and availability of Singaporean movies, dramas, and documentaries on OTT Video platforms. This trend is driven by the desire to support local talent and stories, as well as the recognition of the quality and creativity of Singaporean content. Another trend in the market is the emergence of niche OTT Video platforms catering to specific interests or demographics. These platforms offer specialized content that may not be available on mainstream platforms, attracting viewers who have specific preferences or interests. For example, there are OTT Video platforms that focus on documentaries, independent films, or specific genres like horror or comedy. This trend reflects the increasing fragmentation of the OTT Video market as providers seek to cater to niche audiences and differentiate themselves from competitors.

Local special circumstances:
Singapore's small size and high internet penetration rate contribute to the growth of the OTT Video market. With a highly connected population and widespread access to high-speed internet, Singaporeans are able to easily access and stream content on OTT Video platforms. The compact nature of the country also makes it easier for providers to deliver content to viewers, ensuring a seamless and reliable streaming experience. Additionally, the strong intellectual property protection laws in Singapore provide a favorable environment for OTT Video providers. Content creators and distributors can feel confident that their intellectual property rights will be respected and enforced, encouraging investment in the market and the availability of a wide range of content.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
Singapore's strong economy and high disposable income levels contribute to the growth of the OTT Video market. With a prosperous economy and a high standard of living, Singaporeans have the financial means to subscribe to OTT Video platforms and pay for premium content. This creates a lucrative market for providers and encourages investment in the development and acquisition of high-quality content. Furthermore, the increasing adoption of smartphones and other connected devices in Singapore drives the demand for OTT Video services. With more Singaporeans owning smartphones and using them as their primary device for consuming media, the demand for OTT Video platforms that offer mobile-friendly experiences is on the rise. This trend is further supported by the availability of affordable data plans and the expansion of 4G and 5G networks in Singapore. In conclusion, the OTT Video market in Singapore is experiencing significant growth and development due to customer preferences for convenience and variety, the rise of local content and niche platforms, local special circumstances such as high internet penetration and strong intellectual property protection laws, and underlying macroeconomic factors such as a strong economy and high disposable income levels.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on Traditional TV & Home Video and OTT (over-the-top) Services. All monetary figures refer to consumer spending on digital goods or subscriptions in the respective segment. This spending factors in discounts, margins, and taxes.

Modeling approach / Segment size:

The segment size is determined through a bottom-up approach. We use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, survey results from our primary research (e.g., Consumer Insights), as well as performance factors (e.g., user penetration, price per product, usage) to analyze the markets. To estimate the segment size for each country individually, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific industry associations, such as GDP, number of internet users, and internet consumption.

Forecasts:

We apply a variety of forecasting techniques, depending on the behavior of the relevant segment. 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.
