18、ok ahead to the future with courage andconviction.2024 is a special year for Temasek as we commemorate 50 years since our inception in 1974.We are marking this significant milestoneat a time when the world is deeply divided.Over the past three decades,we had enjoyed global peace and stability with f

26、as capital markets.Amidst the global economic uncertainties,we maintained a cautious investment stance,and invested S$26 billion and divested S$33billion in the financial year ended 31 March 2024 with a net divestment of S$7 billion.This is compared to our net investment of S$4billion in the last fi
27、nancial year.Our 10-year and 20-year Total Shareholder Return(TSR)were 6%and 7%respectively.One-year TSR was 1.60%.TSR since inception in1974 was 14%.On a mark to market basis,our net portfolio value as at 31 March 2024 would have been S$420 billion,including a valueuplift of S$31 billion from our u
28、nlisted portfolio.The resilience of our portfolio remains our core strength.We will continue to shape our portfolio in line with long-term structuraltrends,with the aim of achieving sustainable returns over the long term.Navigating a Complex WorldThe global economy has been more robust than expected
29、.Recession risks in key developed markets have largely subsided,aspolicymakers navigated an eventful 2023.While monetary policy remains tight globally,we are seeing inflation coming down fromelevated levels.This has given central banks more confidence to potentially ease monetary policy,with some al
30、ready beginning theprocess.Despite the better growth outlook,there are risks on the horizon.Geopolitical tensions are a key concern primarily centred ontense US-China relations,and the wars in Ukraine and Gaza.The elections in the US and other countries this year could add anadditional layer of comp
31、lexity to the risk-reward spectrum.In the US,inflationary pressures have broadly eased,even as growth has remained firm.Expansionary supply factors,especially higherimmigration flows,have made this possible by adding to the labour force and the economys overall growth capacity.However,thetrajectory
32、towards the Federal Reserves inflation target of 2%remains uncertain.An unclear inflation path,a resilient labour market,and continued growth suggest less need for the Federal Reserve to pre-emptively ease its restrictive monetary policy,potentiallyleaving policy rates higher for longer.If inflation
33、 turns out to be more persistent than expected,the odds of further hikes may increasewhich may result in headwinds to financial markets.The Eurozone economy is recovering.Domestic consumption is supported by credit growth and a pickup in real wages as inflationslows.This has allowed the European Cen
34、tral Bank to normalise policy.In addition,the global manufacturing cycle has troughed,forming another growth tailwind.However,we are watchful for downside risks in the form of a less supportive fiscal impulse.In thelong term,there remains scope for significant infrastructure build out across Europe

36、nas government has set a target of around 5%economic growth for 2024,which is the same as last year.The government maintainsa pro-growth policy stance.This has aided China in recovering from a cyclical bottom in growth but structural challenges remain.Diversification plans by global multinational co
37、rporations and reduced foreign direct investment could lower the potential forproductivity gains.Chinas supply capacity remains highly competitive and efficient,but without a commensurate pickup in domesticdemand,growth and inflation will continue to face downward pressure.At the same time,geopoliti
38、cal tensions and threats of additionaltariffs could weigh on export demand for Chinese goods.Singapores open economy is expected to be supported by a healthy external growth backdrop and continued recovery in the globalgoods cycle.However,geopolitical events and conflicts pose risks.We remain watchf
39、ul over any potential disruption to global trade andsupply chains which could disproportionately impact Singapore.Commemorating Our 50 AnniversaryTurning 50 is an opportunity to reflect on our journey and prepare for the road ahead.To guide us to realise our Purpose So EveryGeneration Prospers,we ha
40、ve refreshed the Temasek Charter,which is a living document that we review and update at different phasesof Temaseks journey.The refreshed Charter sets out our role as a global investor rooted in Singapore,to deliver sustainable returnsover the long term.To move forward,we have developed our T2030 s
41、trategy to build a resilient and forward-looking portfolio,withsustainability at our core.In June 2024,we announced T-Spring,a S$150 million gift to the community to advance capabilities and contribute to preparingSingapores workforce and organisations to embrace a different world.The gift which sup
42、ports skills development,scholarships,andfellowships is Temaseks tribute to Singapores past,present,and future generations on our 50 anniversary.It reflects ourintergenerational focus,underscores our roots,and acknowledges human capital as the driver of our journey and its role in Singaporessuccess.
43、Extending Our Global FootprintTemaseks growth is a story of globalisation.In 1974,we had a portfolio of 35 Singapore companies and since then we have grown intoa global investment house with 13 offices in 9 countries around the world.In April this year,we held the official opening of our Paris offic

46、 the disclosurerequirements issued by the International Sustainability Standards Board.As a company,we uphold our commitment to carbonneutrality in our operations.We also remain committed to our strategy for net zero,nature positive,and inclusive growth.ththTemasek Review 2024 2.From Our Chairman16I
47、n AppreciationI am grateful to our international and regional advisors,who have always been generous with their insights and advice.Last year,welaunched the Temasek Southeast Asia Advisory Panel(TSEAP),which comprises eminent business leaders with deep experience,insights,and perspectives on signifi
48、cant industry,economic,social,and political trends in the region.Together with the TemasekAmericas Advisory Panel and the Temasek European Advisory Panel,TSEAP will complement the Temasek International Panel inproviding Temasek with regular access to and engagement with prominent business leaders on
49、 issues relevant to our activities acrosskey markets.I am also deeply appreciative to my colleagues on the Board for their tireless and generous contributions that enable us to navigatethe challenges ahead.I wish to take this opportunity to welcome Tan Chong Meng and Geoffrey Wong who joined our Boa
50、rd on 1 April2024 and 10 May 2024 respectively.Both are senior business leaders with extensive global experience in their respective fields.ChongMengs 40-year executive career has spanned both private and public service.His track record of driving commercial growth in diverseglobal markets will be i
51、nvaluable in guiding the Temasek team to navigate the complex operating environment.Geoffrey has a longcareer in investment management,especially in the Asia Pacific and emerging markets.His deep investment experience in equities andother asset classes,as well as in the areas of investment managemen
52、t and governance,will help to strengthen our board andinvestment deliberations.We look forward to tapping on their guidance and counsel.My message started with a sombre picture of our world.However,I am optimistic that we will weather the storm and emerge stronger.I say this with conviction as our h
53、istory is proof that we have what it takes to overcome a challenging environment.Many of the issuesthat we are dealing with today were present in 1974,such as high inflation and interest rates,the global oil crisis,the Cold War,and afragmented global economy.We surmounted those headwinds 50 years ag
54、o and thrived.We will rise above the challenges that havecome back to revisit us and may stay with us well past the end of the decade.Finally,I would like to thank our people who have been instrumental to Temaseks journey.I am grateful to the boards,management,and staff of Temasek and our portfolio
55、companies past and present for their contributions over the past 50 years.They have putus in good stead by always doing things with tomorrow in mind.We will strive to continue their good work and stay committed to doingwell,doing right,and doing good,so that every generation prospers.LIM BOON HENGCh

80、d beyond investing in emerging markets and Asia,to developed markets in the US and Europe.In 2019,Temasek developed our T2030 strategy our 10-year roadmap to guide our strategic planning,capability building,andinstitutional development initiatives for this decade.As part of our T2030 strategy,we foc

96、technologies,Intapp,Medanta,PB Fintech,and Zomato have listed in the past five years.Early-Stage InvestmentsOur focus as an investment company is to invest in innovation and growth.This includes investing in early-stage companies to identifypotential winners early;to keep abreast of the latest techn
97、ologies and innovations;and to drive portfolio development efforts.We alsoengage closely with portfolio companies on their efforts to assess potential disruption risks and to identify transformationopportunities arising from these new technologies.We are cognisant of the risks and challenges these e

168、vesting by asset class,country,sector,or single name.Our long investment horizon means we have a portfolio of predominantly equities which is expected to deliver higher risk-adjustedreturns over the long term.Our stable funding base allows us to invest and benefit from companies with high growth pot
169、ential throughlisted and unlisted assets(including private equity funds).Consequently,given the high equity exposure,our portfolio is expected to have higher volatility of returns,with a greater risk ofnegative returns in any one year.Our investment approach is to ride out short-term market volatili

182、cialised areas suchas legal,tax,and climate risks.When we invest in companies,we conduct a bottom-up fundamental valuation analysis and due diligence.We also use an appropriaterisk-adjusted cost of capital(RACOC)to determine a best estimate of company valuation.Our analysis enables us to estimate a
183、fairvalue for the company.We also estimate stress case valuations to help us gauge the degree of variability in potential future returnsunder different assumptions.We will compare our reasonable estimate of fair value with current market valuation to determine if an investment makes sense at theprop
184、osed price,and if it provides a margin of safety to our RACOC,including an estimated cost of carbon emissions.The discount rate used in the valuation process will be a weighted average of the companys cost of debt and equity capital.We utilisethe capital asset pricing model to derive an appropriate
185、cost of equity.This takes into account leverage,the type of industry,and thecountries of operation.Investments in riskier sectors or markets will have higher costs of capital.We also add an illiquidity riskpremium for unlisted investments and a venture risk premium for early-stage investments to acc
186、ount for their respective risks.We use individual companies RACOC to compare the relative attractiveness between investment opportunities.We may dial up or downthe required spread over RACOC as a tool to tighten or loosen our investment risk posture.Depending on the external outlook and our investme
187、nt stance,we may choose to invest in opportunities with positive expectedreturns,which are below their respective individual RACOC.We also deploy excess liquidity in short-term liquid investments where theexpected returns may be lower than our cost of capital.All prospective investments must be revi
188、ewed and approved by our investment committee.Investment proposals made to the investment committee are typically submitted by both market and sector teams who providegeographic and industry expertise.Depending on the size or risk significance,these proposals may be escalated to our Board ExecutiveC
189、ommittee or Board for a final decision.Post-investment monitoring is performed by the investment teams on a continuous basis,and formally by senior management atquarterly review meetings chaired by the Deputy CEO.They assess if the investment is performing to our expectations and whether anyaction s
190、hould be taken.Temasek Review 2024 3.Performance&Portfolio 3.7 Managing Risks47Foreign Exchange RiskOur projected risk-adjusted return for each investment proposal takes into account any anticipated foreign exchange(FX)movementsagainst the Singapore dollar.We also selectively hedge FX exposures from
191、 confirmed nearer-term cash flow and expected divestments within our forecast period.Environmental,Social,and Governance RiskOur investments are evaluated on the basis of our Environmental,Social,and Governance(ESG)framework,which is integrated withinthe investment process.This framework requires th
192、e analysis of material ESG considerations,with an emphasis on climate-related risks.As part of our analysis,we apply an internal carbon price of US$65 per tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent(tCO e).This provides anadditional consideration to our assessment of the long-term climate resiliency and our
193、returns expectations for each investment.We are also strengthening our analytic capabilities to enhance our pre-investment due diligence and post-investment engagements toaddress material nature-related risks.We piloted a set of baseline expectations in social areas such as human rights and labour p
194、ractices;diversity,equity,and inclusion;talent management;product quality and safety;data privacy and security;and supply chain responsibility.To manage and mitigate suchrisks,we conduct deeper due diligence in cases where potential exposure to social risk is identified.Our Board Risk&Sustainability
195、 Committee(RSC)was established in January 2022 to,amongst other things,enhance the focus onopportunities and risks arising from sustainability trends,including climate change,and other financial,reputational,operational,andcyber risks.Liquidity&Leverage RiskWe manage our leverage,liquidity,and balan
196、ce sheet prudently for resilience and flexibility.We maintain a high level of liquidity in ourportfolio and manage our liquidity risk by ensuring that our primary recurring sources of cash flows are able to cover our non-discretionary uses of cash,such as operating expenses,taxes,and interest to bon
197、dholders.Our recurring income includes divestments,dividends from portfolio companies,and distributions from funds.Our liquidity is supported primarily by our recurring income,supplemented by proceeds from any debt issuances via Temasek Bondsand Euro-commercial Paper,as well as bank borrowings.Total
198、 leverage is restricted by an overall debt limit set by our Board.The debtlimit takes into account our portfolio value,shareholder funds,forecast cash flow,and credit profile.We proactively plan for a well-distributed debt maturity profile,avoiding large refinancing risk in any one year.In addition
199、to maintaining the discipline of regular divestments to generate liquidity,the construction of our portfolio enables us toaccess liquidity relatively quickly in times of stress.As at 31 March 2024,our liquid and sub-20%listed assets alone were about fivetimes our debt outstanding.In the highly unlik
200、ely extreme scenario where we have no other cash inflows,aside from using our liquiditybalance,divesting a small part of our liquid and sub-20%listed assets would be sufficient to cover the total debt outstanding in undertwo weeks.As a policy,Temasek does not provide any financial guarantees for the

294、o Emissions Metrics whether due to fraud or error,responding tothe assessed risks as necessary in the circumstances,and evaluating the overall presentation of the SelectedPortfolio Emissions Metrics.A limited assurance engagement is substantially less in scope than a reasonableassurance engagement i
295、n relation to both the risk assessment procedures,including an understanding of internalcontrol,and the procedures performed in response to the assessed risks.The procedures we performed included inquiries,inspection of documents,analytical procedures,evaluating theappropriateness of quantification
296、methods and reporting policies,and agreeing or reconciling with underlyingrecords.Given the circumstances of the engagement,in performing the procedures listed above we:Evaluated the suitability of the Reporting Criteria as a basis to prepare the Selected Portfolio EmissionsMetrics;Through inquiries
297、,obtained an understanding of Temaseks control environment and the information systemsrelevant to the preparation of the Selected Portfolio Emissions Metrics.However,we did not evaluate thedesign of control activities,obtain evidence about their implementation or test their operating effectiveness;E

303、t be detected.The absence of a commonly used generally accepted reporting framework or a significant body of establishedpractice on which to draw to evaluate and measure subject matter allows for different,but acceptable,measurement techniques that can affect comparability between entities and over
304、time.As there are currently nolegislative requirements or regulation prescribing the preparation,disclosure and verification of Temaseksportfolio emissions,the Selected Portfolio Emissions Metrics need to be read and understood together with theReporting Criteria.Temasek Review 2024 Independent Prac
305、titioners Report63The quantification of the greenhouse gas emissions data underlying the Selected Portfolio Emissions Metrics issubject to inherent uncertainty because of incomplete scientific knowledge used to determine emissions factorsand the values needed to combine emissions of different gases,
