GIC / Temasek US 2025
Hi everyone! Wondering if anyone could provide color on GIC or Temasek's direct PE and/or co-investment teams in the US in terms of mandate, comp, culture, promo opportunities, and if associates generally exit.
Any unique advantages/tradeoffs to a less traditional path like this compared to more common alternatives such as career-track in MMPE (possible considerations such as cash comp/lack of carry, WLB/less rigorous diligence, etc.)?
Good career if you join with large cap PE experience at the more senior level (VP+), probably tracks favourably to a risk adjusted MM/UMM PE outcome given odds of making partner/MD and realization of carry equivalent (although lesser in total amount)
Anyone know how days in office these groups are? Particularly Temasek?
does anyone know what the interview process is like?

Bump - any views on Temasek or Mubadala’s direct private teams vs UMM/MM PE? Staying power, comp etc
Seems like they’re all really hard to make MD/D at and the comp isn’t really great unless you’re a Director+?
Haven’t seen many datapoints on Mubadala so won’t comment. But from what I’ve heard from ppl in the industry and seen on LinkedIn, the direct teams at the two Singapore-based funds in US are definitely there with UMM / large-cap funds. This is especially true in terms of exits, deal exposure, and overall investment sophistication and promo structure. But also heard they can be sweaty - mainly because the amount of deals they look at + lean teams.
