Our guest for today is no stranger to Singaporeans. Founded in 1974, Temasek is a global investment company with 12 offices across eight countries. 

The state investor has a long term horizon, where activities are guided by their views on long-term structural trends. It mostly invests in equities though it does not set limits for geographies, sectors or asset classes. 

The firm released its latest annual review for FY 2023 today, where its net portfolio value dropped to S$382 billion from the S$403 billion seen in 2022. 

Meanwhile, its 1-year total shareholder return was at negative 5% due to a fall in the valuation of public and private equities, though its 10-year and 20 year total shareholder returns remained robust at 6% and 9% respectively.

So how does Temasek read into its latest performance? What is its current portfolio construction strategy and outlook for Singapore companies? Also – what is Temasek’s view on the crypto sector and new growth investments after its investment in FTX?
