Temasek Review 2022
Institution

Our OneTemasek Team

We have about 900 people, representing 33 nationalities across 13 offices in 9 countries, investing and working together to build a better tomorrow.

We strive to do well, do right, and do good, to build a brighter, kinder and more inclusive tomorrow for this and future generations.

At the core of this ambition is our people — their values, passions, capabilities, and their willingness to learn, lead and take on new ideas and responsibilities.

Rooted in Meritocracy

Temasek has its roots in Singapore, a country founded on the ideals of meritocracy, regardless of race, language or religion. Our character is shaped by the values, the integrity and the capability of our people.

Temasek, built and sustained by its people, serves as an active global investor and a trusted steward. We value diversity, the cross-fertilisation of experiences and ideas across geographies and cultures, and the ability to connect dots in a complex world.

Over the years, we have branched out, beyond Singapore, to establish a presence in key centres around the world — first, in China and India, then Vietnam. As we identified the investment themes that guide us, we expanded beyond Asia to the Americas and Europe.

Our character is shaped by the values, the integrity and the capability of our people.

Developing Our People

We work to transform for relevance and impact, as we have done through the years.

We encourage mobility as a way of developing our talent, both between functions and across geographies. Our colleagues are given opportunities to broaden their experiences and exposure outside their home base, and also to build their skill sets and leadership capabilities across our global network. This is critical, as we strive to deliver our goals for a more resilient and sustainable future.

An Inclusive Team

We bond as OneTemasek, embracing different perspectives, skill sets and experiences. The interaction among all of us from diverse backgrounds creates an inclusive workplace where we can grow and thrive individually and collectively as an institution, towards our common Purpose, “So Every Generation Prospers”.

We value diversity, the cross-fertilisation of experiences and ideas across geographies and cultures, and the ability to connect diverse dots.

Our offices around the world are anchored by strong local cores. Overall, our nationality mix is about 60% Singaporeans and 40% other nationals, which includes about 10% Singapore Permanent Residents. This mix will evolve as we grow our international footprint.

We value diversity, the cross-fertilisation of experiences and ideas across geographies and cultures, and the ability to connect diverse dots.

Supporting Our Communities

Our staff are active volunteers who give back to their communities in many ways. Our annual Community Day is on 25 June, the date on which we were incorporated in 1974. Staff in our various offices work with beneficiaries on each anniversary and throughout the year. Our people have volunteered to support our community response towards COVID-19, and other activities to extend a helping hand to the vulnerable.
