Cloud, IoT deals shield Temasek from big impacts of FTX write off

The Singapore-based firm said it would write off a $275 investment from FTX.

Temasek Holdings Limited, a Singapore investment firm, recently said it would write off $275m investments in the embattled crypto exchange, FTX, with its exposure to the company less than 0.1% of net portfolio value.

But analytics firm, GlobalData, said the diversity of Temasek's deal activity in 2022 includes other investments such as digital media, cloud, and IoT, which helps it mitigate the impact of business issues such as FTX's filing for bankruptcy.

GlobalData said Temasek had the most deal value around the said digital tools. It has been involved in almost 100 deals so far in 2022.

Rinaldo Pereira, the business fundamentals analyst at GlobalData, said, the company’s deal value for cloud and IoT in 2022 grew year on year.”

Its cloud investments are Chinese cloud-gaming company Well-Link Technologies and Indonesian cloud-based warehouse management systems provider, PT Tibeka Logistik.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
