Who we are

We’re a global long-term investor, with purpose in our hearts and the future on our minds

Purpose of Funds

GIC is one of the three investment entities in Singapore that manage Singapore's reserves, alongside the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and Temasek. We manage most of the Government’s financial assets, investing for the long term with an aim to preserve and enhance the international purchasing power of the funds placed in our care.

Why Reserves Matter

The reserves are a critical resource for Singapore’s future. First, they are a valuable buffer for unavoidable downturns. Second, a strong national balance sheet fosters investor confidence, enhancing the Singapore dollar’s resilience. Third, income from investing the reserves.

Supplementing the Government’s Annual Budget

Singaporeans benefit from the returns of GIC, as well as those of MAS and Temasek. The Net Investment Returns Contribution (NIRC), estimated to be S$23.5 billion in Financial Year (FY) 2024, has allowed the Government to make further investments for the long term, such as in education, R&D, healthcare, and improving our physical environment.

Our Leadership

Our people are our transformational force. GIC continues to build new capabilities and expand our investment and operating platforms, as we seek to strengthen our investment performance and organisational resilience into the future.

Executive Management

The Group Executive Committee is GIC’s highest management body, comprising our functional and investment heads. It deliberates on management proposals on investment and risk issues before submission to relevant Board Committees and the Board itself.

The Committee also oversees all major business, governance, and policy issues concerning the group as a whole.
