Who will be next to lead Temasek, and is there enough time for them to come up to speed?
The company’s latest reorganisation will create new leadership roles that it will take time to fill
[SINGAPORE] Temasek Holdings executive director and chief executive Dilhan Pillay last week made clear that the Singapore investment company is paving the way for new leadership.
In its largest corporate reorganisation since it was split into Temasek Holdings and Temasek International in 2011, the investment behemoth – with a portfolio last valued at S$434 billion – will be dividing its holdings into three entities: Temasek Global Investments (TGI), Temasek Singapore (TSG) and Temasek Partnership Solutions (TPS).
The way Pillay sees it, the move is necessary to sharpen the company’s focus for it to adapt to an ever-changing global landscape. And the 62-year-old says it is also a good time to groom the next generation of leaders to take Temasek into the next lap.
