SINGAPORE: Singapore's sovereign wealth fund has changed its legal name from "Government of Singapore Investment Corporation Private Limited" to "GIC Private Limited".
In a statement, GIC said the name change formalises the widely-used brand name of "GIC" in the global investment community and markets that GIC operates in.
The change will have no effect on the operations, rights or obligations of the company.

According to its website, GIC has invested "well over" US$100 billion in a wide range of assets.

Analysts estimate GIC's investment portfolio to be worth around US$300 billion.

What's the difference? the only I get, is they hide the "GOVERNMENT" part so that, people thinks it is a private listed company...& sure it is private!

Change soup but not change medicine. They may as well change name of Temasek Holdings too.

Feng Shui no good. Keep losing money.
Why never change the logo to pink colour?

It's a rebranding exercise which I suspect is to delink GIC from Singapore.

Corporations do it all the time. Microsoft did it recently.

The hundreds of billions already theirs.

You got a hope in hell thinking you get your CPF and any other money from them?

They stole it and stole it

Just like Ministers stealing toothpicks and so fucking happy about the toothpicks they stole


Changing name is their standard smoke and mirrors

Spot on, bro. Obscure the govt part so people don't immediately associate its mistakes with the govt!

the proposal "gecko investment corporation" came up, but was dismissed as it would be too uncannily close to geico insurance with the gecko mascot. :*:

Singapore's sovereign wealth fund has changed its legal name from "Government of Singapore Investment Corporation Private Limited" to "GIC Private Limited".

"Government of Singapore Investment Corporation Private Limited" is in itself an oxymoron

Should have renamed it as DIC Private Limited.

This was always shown after all those cartoons. Surprised they named it like that and got a female child to say it.

If you know why the shops in Sim Lim change names, you'll understand why GIC is doing the same.
