bad judgment
Before the collapse of FTX, Temaseks investment had a value of around $ 275 million, which corresponds to $ 0.09 % of the company's total investment portfolio worth around $ 304 billion.
After the collapse of the platform - which led to Temasek fully offset his investment - Temasek Holdings carried out an internal examination of the matter to avoid further damage to his reputation.
Temasek was not the only investment company that wrote down her investment, even though it was the most important investment that was deleted. The other companies that did the same thing include Sequoia Capital, Softbank and the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan.
Despite the depreciation, FTX currently owes around $ 52 billion, $ 44 billion of them are recently submitted by the IRS.

The internal autopsy of Temasek has now been completed. The company's internal revision service stated that no misconduct was found on its side, although the examiners emphasized that important information that should have been made available to the investors - including Temasek - had been kept silent about Temasek ftx.
Nevertheless, the failed investment has hurt the reputation of Temasek Holdings, said CEO Lin Boon Heng.
"As claimed by the public prosecutor and admitted by important managers at FTX and its subsidiaries, there was fraudulent behavior that was deliberately hidden from investors, including Temasek. We are disappointed with the result of our investment and the negative effects on our reputation."
The investment team has taken on responsibility
Since the decision to invest in FTX was made in good faith-and the DUE diligence test by Temaseks was also carried out strictly and professionally-no internal sanctions were imposed.
However, according to reports, the investment team, which gave the green light for the investment, and the management, which it approved, took over the full responsibility for the company to fail. As a result, those responsible were reduced the annual remuneration."The investment team and the management, which are ultimately responsible for the investment decisions made, took over the collective responsibility and had their remuneration shortened."
The investment company did not want to comment on whether the premiums or salaries of the employees were reduced. Temasek also kept covered with the exact amount of reducing the remuneration from the salary list of his employees.
