Explanatory Notes
Introduction
Since 1995, the Department of Statistics (DOS) has been compiling the quarterly Wholesale Trade Index
(WTI) to measure the short-term performance of the wholesale trade industry. Wholesalers supply the
merchandise to manufacturers, commercial and institutional clients for use in production, or to other
wholesalers and retailers for resale. The index series consists of the Domestic WTI and Foreign WTI. The
Domestic WTI measures the quarterly trend of wholesale sales in Singapore, while the Foreign WTI
measures that of wholesale sales outside Singapore, which comprises sales of off-shore merchandise,
domestic exports, re-exports and transhipment cargo.
The WTI series is presented at current prices and constant prices. The indices at current prices measure
the changes of sales values, which can result from changes in both price and quantity. After removing
the price effect, the indices at constant prices measure the changes in the volume of economic activity
in the wholesale trade industry.
To reflect changes in the structure of the wholesale trade industry, the coverage and weighting patterns
of the WTI series are revised regularly. The WTI series have been re-based from reference year 2012 to
2017, the fourth re-basing exercise of the series. The new WTI series (2017=100) have been released
starting from the 1Q2018 report.
Data Collection
The data used for the compilation of the WTI are obtained from the Quarterly Wholesale Trade Survey
(WTS) conducted by DOS, as well as from administrative sources.
Index Compilation
The overall sales index at current prices is a weighted average of indices at the detailed industry level.
To derive the sales index at detailed industry level, the quarterly wholesale sales for that industry is
divided by the average quarterly wholesale sales for the same industry in the base year (which is 2017).
The overall WTI is then computed by combining the sales indices of the detailed industries, using
weights which measure each industry’s relative importance in the overall wholesale trade industry.
To derive the indices at constant prices, the sales indices at current prices at the detailed industry level
are first deflated by the appropriate price indices. These component indices at constant prices are then
weighted and aggregated to derive the overall indices at constant prices.

Seasonal Adjustment
The WTI series is seasonally adjusted to remove the seasonal effects so as to better reflect the
underlying trend of the quarterly sales. The unadjusted indices display seasonal patterns arising from
intra-year periodic variations that repeat during the fixed period of time every year.
