Temasek Holdings Pte, Singapore’s state investment company, paid $400 million for a 14.3 percent stake in the oil services unit of Brazil’s Odebrecht SA as it increases its focus on emerging markets.

The investment in Rio de Janeiro-based Odebrecht Oil & Gas comes after Temasek opened offices in Mexico City and Sao Paulo about two years ago. The company also has investments in Brazilian real estate and retail companies.
