SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Singapore sovereign fund Temasek, which spent billions of dollars on shares in Merrill Lynch (MER.N: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz), sees value in banking stocks in the United States and Britain, a senior executive said on Tuesday.
"The financial service industry is one we believe in," said Manish Kejriwal, Temasek's senior managing director for investment, International and India, told journalists. "It's a proxy to the economic growth."
"We recently concentrated on U.S. and UK primarily because we see value."
