I did not say that assets of subs are not taken into Temasek FS. In fact in a consoldation the entire FS of a sub is taken into the parent's books and that includes Assets, liab, P/L.
If Capitaland is inder 50% then it is not considered a sub. Was not aware that Capitaland is under 50%.
You are confusing accounting for a sub (more than 51%) vs ownership of a smaller stake. When temasek buys 5% of Bank fo China that stake in accounted like an investment - investment in Bank of China $2B. Or if they buy a bldg in NY - investment in office bldg $1B.
But if they own Singtel - more than 51% (not sure if over 51% threashold) and that stake is worth $15B, they do not put in their books investment in Singtel $15B. As a sub they will instead have to take in the enitre balance sheet and P&L of Singtel into its books (minus minority interest - the % that they do not own).
If you look closely at PL and BS you will notice this line minority interest. This is the % of the asset/liab (BS) or the % of the income (P/L) that are not owned by the parent Temasek. In singtel's case it refers to some of us Singaporean and the given singtel shares.
So in Temasek's BS there is a $22B in minority interest. I believe this refers to the stakes held by the minority interest in the subs of Temasek (33% of NOL, 45% or SIA, 46% of Singtel).
Now that I look closer I am convinced that Temasek FS includes the subs because we have this minority interest.
So don't jump to conclusions that 350 Temasek employees are paid $8B last year!
Possibly, but Temasek owns less than 41% of capitaland, why are u saying these companies are subsidiaries? U still have not explain wht the assets of these so call subsidiaries (according to you) are not included in the Temasek balance sheets but somehow, acording to you, their expenses are.
