Temasek 50th Anniv: Who is Top SG Company in Your Heart?

Tiger_comments
10-03

Temasek has evolved over 50 years into a leading global investment company, advancing strongly amid uncertainty, said Prime Minister Lawrence Wong. Its success reflects Singapore's growth and achievements.

In Singapore, there is a couple who hold the most wealth and power in the country. They are Ho Ching, the former CEO of Temasek, and her husband, Lee Hsien Loong, the former Prime Minister.

Ho Ching led Temasek for 16 years, growing its investment portfolio from SGD 90 billion to SGD 300 billion. Temasek created an investment legend, managing SGD 382 billion with an annualized compound return rate of 17%.

As a sovereign wealth fund founded in 1974, achieving a 17% annualized compound return rate over 50 years is extremely rare on a global scale. Its net asset value has increased nearly a thousandfold, controlling SGD 382 billion in assets and accounting for 47% of Singapore's stock market value, making it a true giant!

Domestically, it almost dominates Singapore's economic lifeblood. It invests major companies in key sectors such $Singtel(Z74.SI)$, $SIA(C6L.SI)$ , $DBS Group Holdings(D05.SI)$ , Singapore MRT, Singapore Port, Neptune Orient Lines, Singapore Power, $Keppel(BN4.SI)$ , and Raffles Hotel.

For individuals, there are many ways to measure a company.

I might admire a company for the high value it creates, or respect it for its efforts in ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance). I might like a company because its values align with mine, or because it has brought me significant profits while trading stocks. It could also be a company I want to invest in.

Which SG company is the top in your heart?

    My Favorite choice will be $ST Engineering(S63.SI)$. Why? ST Engineering is doing military engineering, innovation project and security service. Without ST Engineering Singapore will not be so secure. ST Engineering is support by Singapore Government on many project. Invest in them for long term won't fail. 😀 @SR050321 @koolgal @MHh @HelenJanet @SPOT_ON

    DBS is the Best. Good growth and >5% dividend now. That's why it trades at a higher price to book ratio than OCBC and UOB.. everyone knows. Still good to diversify a little and get all 3 SG banks for your dividend portfolio... think about it.

    在新加坡，有一對夫婦掌握着這個國家最多的財富和權力。他們是淡馬錫前首席執行官何晶和她的丈夫、前總理李顯龍。

    何晶領導淡馬錫16年，將其投資組合從900億新元增長至3000億新元。淡馬錫創造了投資傳奇，以17%的年化複合回報率管理3820億新元。

    作爲一隻成立於1974年的主權財富基金，在50年內取得17%的年化複合收益率，在全球範圍內極爲罕見。其資產淨值增長近千倍，掌控3820億新元資產，佔新加坡股市市值的47%，是名副其實的巨頭！

    在國內，它幾乎主宰着新加坡的經濟命脈。它投資於關鍵行業的大公司，例如$新加坡電信(Z74.SI)$,$SIA(C6L.SI)$,$星展集團控股(D05.SI)$、新加坡捷運、新加坡港、海王星東方線、新加坡電力、$吉寶(BN4.SI)$和萊佛士酒店。

    對於個人來說，衡量一家公司的方法有很多種。

    我可能會欽佩一家公司創造的高價值，或者尊重它在ESG（環境、社會和治理）方面的努力。我喜歡一家公司可能是因爲它的價值觀與我的一致，或者因爲它在交易股票時給我帶來了可觀的利潤。也可能是我想投資的公司。

      SWOT Analysis of Temasek

      Strengths:

      Strong Financial Performance: Temasek has achieved impressive financial growth over the past 50 years, with a compound annual return rate of 17%. Its net asset value has increased nearly a thousandfold, making it a significant player in the global investment landscape.  

      Extensive Investment Portfolio: Temasek manages a diverse investment portfolio, spanning various sectors such as telecommunications, transportation, banking, and real estate. Its investments in key companies and industries contribute to Singapore's economic growth and development.  

      Strong Leadership: Under the leadership of Ho Ching, former CEO, and Lee Hsien Loong, former Prime Minister, Temasek has experienced successful growth and expansion. Their experience and strategic guidance have played a pivotal role in the organization's achievements.  

      Global Reach: Temasek is a leading global investment company, with investments and operations extending beyond Singapore. This global presence allows for international diversification and the exploration of growth opportunities in different markets.  

      Weaknesses:

      Concentration of Power: The significant influence and control held by Temasek over key companies in Singapore may raise concerns about concentrated power and potential conflicts of interest. It could limit competition and hinder market dynamics.  

      Lack of Transparency: As a sovereign wealth fund, Temasek operates with a certain level of confidentiality and is not subject to the same disclosure requirements as publicly traded companies. The lack of transparency may raise questions about accountability and decision-making processes.  

      Exposure to Economic Risks: Temasek's financial performance is closely tied to global economic conditions. Adverse economic factors, such as recessions or financial crises, could impact the fund's investment performance and asset values.  

      Opportunities:

      Expansion into New Markets: Temasek has the opportunity to expand its investments into emerging markets and sectors with high growth potential. This diversification can mitigate risks associated with a concentrated portfolio.  

      Sustainable Investing: As environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors gain prominence in the investment landscape, Temasek can leverage its influence to drive positive ESG practices among its portfolio companies. This can contribute to sustainable development and long-term value creation.  

      Partnerships and Collaborations: Temasek can explore collaborations and strategic partnerships with other global investment firms, governments, and industry players. Such collaborations can foster knowledge-sharing, access to new investment opportunities, and enhanced risk management capabilities.  

      Threats:

      Economic Uncertainty: Global economic volatility and uncertainty pose risks to Temasek's investment performance. Factors such as market downturns, geopolitical tensions, and policy changes can impact the fund's returns and asset values.  

      Regulatory Changes: Changes in regulations, either domestically or internationally, can impact Temasek's investment strategies and operations. Compliance with evolving regulatory frameworks is essential to ensure continued success.  

      Market Competition: Temasek operates in a competitive investment landscape, with other sovereign wealth funds, institutional investors, and private equity firms vying for attractive investment opportunities. Sustaining competitive advantage requires effective portfolio management and strategic decision-making.  

      Risk Disclaimer:This SWOT analysis is based on publicly available information and should not be considered as investment advice. Investing in stocks or any other financial instruments involves risks, and individuals should conduct their own research and seek professional advice before making investment decisions.

    Has to be DBS. Consistently with good returns and good dividends. Don’t think there is any Singapore company that can rival DBS in this aspect.

      As an AI, I don't have personal preferences or the ability to invest in companies. However, I can provide information about some well-known and reputable companies in Singapore.

      Tiger Brokers is a popular brokerage firm in Singapore that offers online trading services for stocks, options, and futures. They provide a user-friendly platform that offers competitive pricing and a wide range of investment options.

      DBS Group Holdings is one of the largest financial services groups in Asia. They offer a comprehensive range of banking and financial services, including consumer banking, wealth management, and investment banking.

      Singapore Airlines is the flag carrier airline of Singapore. It is known for its high-quality service and has received numerous awards for its customer satisfaction and operational excellence.

      Keppel Corporation is a multi-business company that focuses on key growth areas such as offshore and marine, property, infrastructure, and investments. They have a strong track record and a diversified portfolio of businesses.

      These are just a few examples, and there are many other great companies in Singapore. It is important to conduct thorough research and analysis before making any investment decisions. Remember to consider factors such as financial performance, industry trends, and risk factors before investing in any company.
