Temasek Holdings (Private) Limited ( IPA: /təˈmɑːsk/ tə-MAH-sayk [note 1] ) is a Singaporean state-owned multinational investment firm. Incorporated on 25 June 1974, Temasek has a net portfolio of S$484 billion as of 31 March 2025. [4] Headquartered at Orchard Road, Singapore, it has 14 offices in 10 countries around the world, including in Beijing, Brussels, Hanoi, London, Mexico City, Mumbai, New York City, Paris, Milan, San Francisco, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Washington D.C. [5]

Contents

It is an active shareholder and investor, with four key structural trends guiding its long term portfolio construction—Digitisation, Sustainable Living, Future of Consumption, and Longer Lifespans. [6] Temasek's portfolio covers a broad spectrum of sectors. Its key focus investment areas include Consumer, Media & Technology, Life Sciences & Agri-Food, and Non-Bank Financial Services. [7]

Temasek has held overall corporate global credit ratings of "Aaa/AAA" by rating agencies Moody's [8] and Standard & Poor's [9] respectively since its inaugural credit ratings in 2004. It has also attained perfect quarterly scores [10] on the Linaburg-Maduell Transparency Index, a measure of the openness of government-owned investment funds. Temasek is primarily anchored in Asia, but with a global portfolio, with a 64% underlying exposure to developed economies. [11]

While Temasek is largely considered as being a sovereign wealth fund (SWF), there are major differences as it invests mostly in equities, is the outright owner of many assets and companies, and pays taxes like other commercial investment firms. [12] Temasek's one-year total shareholder return (TSR) was 1.60%, with longer term 10-year and 20-year TSRs at 6% and 7% respectively, compounded annually. [13] Its TSR since inception was 14%, compounded over 50 years. [14] In addition to Temasek, the Government of Singapore also owns GIC Private Limited, a traditional SWF which manages about US$744 billion (S$1.006 trillion) of assets as of 2022 [15] [16] and the compulsory pension programme Central Provident Fund (CPF) with assets of US$397 billion (S$540 billion), [17] giving a total publicly known AUM of approximately US$1.64 trillion.

Status

Temasek is a company incorporated under the Singapore Companies Act, wholly owned by the Minister for Finance. It is neither a government agency nor a statutory board. Like any other commercial company, Temasek pays taxes that contributes to government revenue in the countries it operates in, distributes dividends to its shareholder and has its own board of directors and a professional management team. [18]

Temasek is designated a Fifth Schedule [18] entity under the Constitution of Singapore, which imposes certain safeguards to protect the government's past reserves. For instance, the approval of the President of Singapore is required for any transaction which is likely to result in a draw-down of Temasek's cash reserves. [19] The president also has the right to appoint, terminate, or renew the members of Temasek's board of directors. In most other respects, however, Temasek operates as an independent commercial investment holding company. [20]

In a 2009 speech, [21] Ho Ching, then Temasek Holdings' Executive Director and CEO, said that the company had made an effort to instill discipline and professionalism, and to be tested and measured by providing public markers of performance. She noted that Temasek's bonds spreads and credit ratings have been regularly [22] and independently [23] monitored as public markers of Temasek's financial position and credit risks. Temasek had also openly [24] and accurately [25] disclosed its financial information through its annual report (although Ho said that, as a private company, it was not legally obliged to do so).

History

At the point of Singapore's independence in August 1965, the Government of Singapore had ownership or joint ownership of various local companies, such as Malaysia-Singapore Airlines (later split up into Malaysia Airlines and Singapore Airlines) and the Singapore Telephone Board (which became Singapore Telecommunications and subsequently Singtel). As part of its push for local and foreign private investment in sectors such as manufacturing and shipbuilding, the government's Economic Development Board (EDB) also bought minority stakes in a variety of local companies. [26] During the first ten years after independence, the government acquired or established several companies, such as the Keppel Corporation (originally Keppel Shipyard, taken over from the Royal Navy after the British military withdrawal from Singapore), ST Engineering (originally a weapon manufacturer set up to supply the Singapore Armed Forces), and the shipping company Neptune Orient Lines. [27]

On 25 June 1974, Temasek was incorporated under the Singapore Companies Act [1] [28] to hold and manage the assets previously held directly by the Singapore government, named for an early settlement on the island. The goal was for Temasek to own and manage these investments on a commercial basis, [21] allowing the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Trade and Industry to focus on policymaking. [29]

In February 2020, Temasek announced a company-wide wage freeze and voluntary pay cuts for senior management in part to help fund community programs aimed at alleviating the impact of COVID-19. [30]

On 1 October 2021, Dilhan Pillay Sandrasegara, the current chief executive officer of Temasek International (TI), succeeded Ho Ching as executive director and chief executive officer of Temasek Holdings. [31]

On 6 June 2025, Temasek announced that Senior Minister and former Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean would succeed Lim Boon Heng as chairman on 9 October 2025, after joining as deputy chairman on 1 July 2025. [32]

On 28 August 2025, Temasek announced it would create three wholly owned entities effective 1 April 2026: Temasek Global Investments, Temasek Singapore, and Temasek Partnership Solutions. As part of the changes, Chia Song Hwee will become Co‑CEO of Temasek International on 1 October 2025. [33]

Investments

Temasek's initial portfolio of S$354 million comprised shares previously held by the Singapore Government, including a bird park, a hotel, a shoemaker, a detergent producer, naval yards converted into a ship repair business, a start-up airline, and an iron and steel mill. [34]

2000s

Temasek's 2006 acquisition of Shin Corporation, owned by the family of then Thai prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, was particularly controversial, with protestors burning effigies of Lee and Ho on the streets of Bangkok. [35] The deal was a factor in exacerbating the Thai political crisis, which eventually led to the downfall of Thaksin and a review of the transaction's legality. The military junta that overthrew Thaksin later tried unsuccessfully to force Temasek to divest a large part of its investment in Shin Corp. [36] As of 2015, Temasek's stake in Intouch Corporation (as Shin Corporation was renamed) had reduced to 42%. [37] In 2016, Temasek sold a further 21% stake in Intouch Holdings, the Thai telecoms conglomerate formerly known as Shin Corp. [38]

2010s

Beginning in 2015, Temasek began making large investments in agricultural and agricultural-related companies and ventures. [39]

By the end of the 2015 financial year, Temasek held a 51% stake in SingTel, valued at approximately $61.9 billion. [40] In April 2017, Temasek made an investment into Intapp, a provider of enterprise software. The deal also included a stake in Intapp. [41] [42]

In June 2018, Temasek invested S$340 million in a minority stake in UST Global, a digital technology services company. [43]

Temasek purchased 30 per cent of Haldor Topsoe's shares in March 2019. The investment company was selected in recognition of the value that it would add through its deep insights and connections in Asian growth and other emerging markets, according to the Danish engineering firm. [44] [45] The transaction price was not disclosed.

2020s

In August 2020, Temasek Holdings added a 3.9 per cent stake in BlackRock Inc, worth about US$3.5 billion, becoming one of its largest shareholders. [46] According to people familiar with the matter, Temasek was one of several players that bought the money manager's shares when PNC Financial Services Group Inc. sold a US$14 billion stake earlier in the year. [47] Temasek and BlackRock created the joint venture Decarbonization Partners, which invests in companies that work to accelerate the decarbonization of the global economy. [48]

In March 2020, for the first time since the forming of the company, Temasek held more investments in another country than in Singapore, with 24% of assets in Singapore and 29% in China. [49]

Temasek purchased stock from Kuaishou Technology during its initial public offering in January 2021. [50] [51]

[56] In October 2023, Temasek participated in a $1.7 billion fundraising round for parking technology company Metropolis Technologies. [57]

In June 2024, Temasek was finalizing its sale of some assets from liquefied natural gas (LNG) trading company Pavilion Energy to Shell, with the deal worth hundreds of millions of US dollars. [58]

In January 2024, Temasek and EQT sold the renewable energy platform O2 Power for $1.5 billion to JSW Energy. [59] [60]

[65] It also holds shares in Keppel Land's parent company, Keppel Ltd. [66]

Temasek began a joint venture in 2011 with Khazanah Nasional and established M+S Pte. Ltd., in which Temasek holds a 40% stake. [67] They also created Pulau Indah Ventures, each holding an 50% interest. [68] In 2015, Temasek established Mandai Park Holdings, which oversees and operates various nature and wildlife parks in Singapore.

Temasek acquired a 52% stake in CapitaLand Investment Management, when it was spun off from the CapitaLand Group in 2021, in which Temasek also holds a 52% stake. [71] [72] Temasek also owns CLA Real Estate Holdings, which, together with Mapletree, owns Cuscaden Peak Investments. [73] [74] [75]
