GIC’s 20-year annualised real return falls to 3.4%, lowest in 6 years

The Singapore sovereign wealth fund GIC reported a 20-year annualised real return of 3.4% for FY2025/2026, marking the lowest level in six years. This follows three consecutive years of declining returns, attributed to a strategic shift toward resilience and reduced risk-taking amid global uncertainties. GIC emphasized its new investment framework aimed at adaptability in a rapidly evolving economic environment. The fund highlighted artificial intelligence (AI) as a key area of focus, planning to allocate an additional $30 billion into hedge funds over three years. GIC's approach to AI investments involves categorizing potential opportunities into 'enablers,' 'monetizers,' and 'adopters' to manage complexity and identify long-term value.

Bias read (Center): The article presents factual information about GIC's financial performance and strategic decisions without overtly favoring any political ideology. It reports on economic and investment strategies without taking a clear ideological stance, maintaining a balanced tone throughout.
