CapitaLand Investment (CLI) has retrenched 90 employees in Singapore in 2026, equivalent to about 4% of its local workforce, as part of a restructuring exercise.

The Singapore-listed real asset manager has about 2,200 employees in Singapore. It said it periodically reviews its organisational structure to ensure that it remains aligned with its strategic priorities and long-term business needs.

CLI said the organisational changes are intended to support its business and operating requirements. It did not disclose which business functions were affected by the job cuts.

In a joint statement on Sept 3, CLI and the Singapore Industrial and Services Employees’ Union (SISEU) said affected employees will receive fair severance arrangements, career transition services and counselling support. CLI will also consider redeployment opportunities within the group where appropriate.

SISEU, an affiliate of the National Trades Union Congress, was informed in advance of the restructuring and has been engaging CLI throughout the exercise. The union said it has been representing workers’ interests, ensuring affected employees are treated fairly and that severance packages comply with the collective agreement.

Affected Singaporeans and permanent residents can also tap NTUC’s Employment and Employability Institute (e2i) for job matching, career coaching and skills upgrading advice. Eligible union members can access the Union Training Assistance Programme to offset training costs and subscriptions to eligible artificial intelligence tools.

The restructuring comes after CLI reported a 13.9% y-o-y increase in net profit to $327 million for 1HFY2026 ended June, from $287 million a year earlier.

Separately, group CEO Lee Chee Koon said at its Aug 13 results briefing that CLI was considering divesting a stake in its hospitality business, The Ascott Limited, as part of efforts to accelerate its growth.

CLI与新加坡工业与服务业雇员联合会（SISEU）在9月3日的联合声明中表示，受影响员工将获得公平的遣散安排、职业过渡服务和辅导支持。CLI亦将在适当情况下考虑集团内部的调岗机会。

作为全国职工总会（NTUC）附属工会的SISEU事先获悉此次重组，并在整个过程中与CLI保持沟通。该工会表示，一直在代表工人利益，确保受影响员工得到公平对待，且遣散方案符合集体协议。

受影响的新加坡公民和永久居民也可借助全国职工总会的就业与就业能力学院（e2i）获得职位匹配、职业辅导和技能提升建议。符合条件的工会会员可使用工会培训援助计划，以抵消培训费用及合资格人工智能工具的订阅费用。

此次重组发生在CLI公布截至6月的2026财年上半年净利同比增长13.9%、达新币3.27亿元之后，上年同期净利为新币2.87亿元。

另外，集团首席执行官李志勤在8月13日的业绩说明会上表示，作为加快增长努力的一部分，CLI正考虑出售其酒店业务雅诗阁有限公司（The Ascott Limited）的部分股权。
