IN what marks her final speech as the head honcho of Temasek Holdings, Ho Ching has reminded businesses and investors of their "collective responsibility" with governments and the labour movement to prepare the work force for life beyond work and help them invest for "retirement with dignity".

"I urge them to open new opportunities for retail investors to invest for their own retirement or for the children... especially as governments and investors put money into green infrastructure as part of the transition to a net-zero world," said Ms Ho on her last day as Temasek's chief executive officer and executive director.
