GIC annual return at par with global equities return of 10.2%

This is the annual return over the past 30 years since 1981, said GIC Chairman Lee Kuan Yew.

He also indicated that the next 30 years is challenging as "investment outlook looks less benign."

According to Dr. Tony Tan Keng Yam, Deputy Chairman & Executive Director of GIC, major structural Post-Crisis problems still remain.

He said: "The world will take time to work through the full consequences of the Global Financial Crisis as well as the large sums of debt that developed countries have taken on."

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
