GIC was established in 1981 to manage Singapore's foreign reserves, with a mandate to preserve and enhance Singapore's international purchasing power over the long term. GIC maintains a diversified portfolio across three broad asset groups — Equities, Fixed Income, and Real Assets — spanning both public and private markets across more than 40 countries. Its investment framework capitalises on a long-term orientation, a broad investment mandate (able to invest across geographies, asset classes, deal types, and capital structure), global operations, and collaborative partnerships. GIC's approach is anchored on two pillars: top-down portfolio construction and bottom-up asset selection, focusing on long-term value with an emphasis on avoiding permanent loss. The fund is the world's most prolific sovereign co-investor, deploying over US$44.9 billion since 2018, and increasingly focuses on technology, digital infrastructure, and AI as transformative investment themes.
