Our portfolio spans diverse industry sectors such as financial services; technology & consumer; transportation & industrials; real estate; life sciences; and agri-food.
We are a long-term investor anchored in Asia. However, we are looking beyond Asia to focus on investment opportunities available in both growth and mature markets. As stewards of our assets, we engage our portfolio companies to enhance shareholder value, and deliver long term sustainable returns.
To build sustainable growth in our portfolio value and strengthen our capabilities, we have organised ourselves into the following groups and functions for sharper focus.
Our corporate teams provide institutional support within Temasek by ensuring the smooth functioning of our business.
Whether it is to anticipate and adapt to demands from the evolving external and internal environments, or to safeguard our institution's interests, our corporate functions are here to meet the challenges and needs of our business globally.
Teams are organised as follows:
Our Investment Group includes our Direct Investment teams which comprise Sectors and Markets teams.
The Sectors teams are broadly organised into industry clusters. They are:
The Markets teams comprise staff from our international offices.
The local network and knowledge these teams build enable us to have better insights and allow us to quickly respond to investment opportunities in the markets. The Markets teams work closely with our Sectors teams to complement their sector domain knowledge and provide local monitoring of investments.
Portfolio Development partners select major portfolio companies on strategic repositioning and/or value creation initiatives. The group works closely with the Boards and Management of these portfolio companies to perform strategic reviews of current business lines in light of changing industry conditions, determine point-of-arrival and identify capability gaps, and evaluate and execute on strategic initiatives that would reposition the company and its stakeholders for sustainable and profitable long-term growth.
Our Portfolio Strategy & Risk Group is to help provide more top-down guidance on our strategic direction and portfolio objectives. The group actively explores overlay and alternative portfolio strategies to enhance our portfolio returns. They are:
At Temasek, sustainability is at the core of everything we do — from our mandate to deliver sustainable value over the long term, to our strategy of how we operate as an institution, shape our portfolio, and engage our portfolio companies to build sustainable businesses.
In partnership with various teams across Temasek and our broader ecosystem, the Sustainability Group initiates, develops and implements strategies to build a climate-resilient, net zero portfolio and to enable nature positive and inclusive growth; catalyses new business opportunities and solutions that contribute to sustainable development; advances thought leadership and engagement on sustainability topics; and supports our growth as a sustainable organisation to create shared value aligned with our mandate of generating sustainable returns over the long term.
The Sustainability Group comprises the following sub-teams and partners with the investment group and functional teams to strengthen our sustainability capabilities and ecosystem.
Internal Audit
The Internal Audit team provides independent and objective assurance via a systematic and disciplined approach to evaluate and enhance the effectiveness of key risk controls and governance processes. The team ensures all internal controls are well designed and effective across geographies and operations, and that control awareness and compliance are high in the organisation.
Emerging Technologies
The Emerging Technologies (ET) team focuses on investments into upstream Research & Development (R&D) that will have high impact, good commercialisation potential, and/or strategic benefits, to build globally competitive and differentiated capabilities for Temasek, its portfolio companies and ecosystem. ET also aims to enhance resilience in strategic segments and/or value chains within our ecosystem, by initiating targeted investments to strengthen the underlying security of our ecosystem, operating models and businesses.

It works closely with other functions and departments within the firm to ensure collaboration, alignment and the delivery of our institutional objectives.

Singapore Market
Temasek undertakes an ecosystem development approach to build new platforms and transform existing businesses for sustainable growth and value creation.
Singapore Market (SGM) is responsible for forging strategic partnerships with government and other relevant stakeholders, to support the development of a resilient and vibrant Temasek ecosystem in Singapore.
SGM works closely with investment/portfolio development teams to identify public policies that are relevant for Temasek’s ecosystem, engages key stakeholders including government officials, regulators and trade unions to advocate for our value proposition, as well as promote collaboration in the building of new economy enterprises and ecosystems in Singapore.
