At SBF’s Future of Trade Forum 2026, Minister for Sustainability and the Environment & Minister-in-charge of Trade Relations Grace Fu urged Singapore businesses to diversify their markets and supply chains as global trade becomes more fragmented, while positioning Singapore as a trusted source of alternative supply for international companies.


SBF also officially launched its Trade AI Advisor (TAIA), the world’s first generative AI-powered trade advisory platform. It provides guidance on tariffs, FTAs, Rules of Origin and trade compliance within seconds, turning hours of research into practical answers.


Backed by global trade intelligence, SBF’s FTA database and trade advisory expertise, TAIA could extend SBF’s trade advisory reach from around 300 companies annually to up to 30,000 Singapore exporters.
