Temasek Holdings is an Asia investment house headquartered in Singapore.
With a 350-strong international staff team, we manage
a portfolio with a net value of about S$185 billion or
US$134 billion, weighted towards Singapore and Asia.
We are an active shareholder and investor in diverse industries
covering banking & financial services, real estate,
transportation & logistics, infrastructure, telecommunications
& media, bioscience & healthcare, education, consumer
& lifestyle, energy & resources, engineering as
well as technology.
Our investments are centered on four themes:
• Transforming economies
• Growing middle class
• Depending comparative advantages
• Emerging champions
Our total shareholder return since our inception is more
than 18% compounded annually. We have a corporate credit
rating of AAA/Aaa by Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s
respectively. Our investments are funded through dividends
we receive from our portfolio companies, our divestment
proceeds, commercial borrowings, a maiden Yankee bond
issue in 2005 and occasional asset injections from our
shareholder, the Minister for Finance (Incorporated).
As a long-term investor, we have a stake in the lives
and well-being of our fellow men. We recognise that social,
environmental and governance factors can impact the larger
community as well as the long-term sustainability of companies
and businesses.
We actualise our commitment as a responsible corporate
citizen by supporting efforts that build people and communities
through education, healthcare and research; build bridges
between peoples through deeper understanding and friendship;
build better governance through a culture of integrity
and excellence; and rebuild lives and livelihoods devastated
by major natural disasters. We have committed almost S$1
billion over the last decade to fund research institutions,
scholarships and other public good beneficiaries, of which
S$500 million was endowed to the Temasek Trust in May
2007.
