"GIC posts 3.9% 20-year annualized real rate of return, weakest investment gains in four years
Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund GIC reported a decline in returns for the past financial year without specifying the sum and cautioned that “profound uncertainty” will continue impacting future returns. In its annual report for 2023/2024, GIC disclosed a 20-year annualized real rate of return of 3.9% for the year ending March 31, compared to 4.6% last year. The growth pace was the slowest since its 2.7% investment return in 2020."
