Singapore's Temasek is a large investor in both dollar terms and in terms of its influence in private markets. As of March 2024, it had S$389 billion ($291 billion; €278 billion) in assets under management and has become known for its focus on sustainability and climate investing. For around five years it has had a formalised approach to impact investing.
Leading that formal approach is Benoit Valentin, one of our 50 influencers in sustainable private markets. Valentin is Temasek's head of private equity fund investments, head of partnership solutions, deputy head of EMEA and head of impact investing.
In this episode, Valentin explains the three principles to Temasek's approach, the challenges encountered since launching the programme and the qualities the investor looks for in a GP.
