yota691 Posted October 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 How has the largest sovereign fund achieved a profit of $ 21 billion in 3 months? 29 October 2018 09:39 PM Of the forbidden copper The largest sovereign wealth fund in the world, Norway, continued its growth in the third quarter of this year with revenues of 174 billion kronor ($ 21 billion).

yota691 Posted November 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2018 World's largest sovereign fund reinstates controversy over "active and passive investment" 15 November 2018 09:27 PM Editing: Sally Ismail Direct: Norway's sovereign wealth fund suffers from what is known as the "world's first problem" - whether to make its investment portfolio less diversified. The fund's $ 1 trillion problem could be truncated at the heart of the debate over active investment versus passive investment, according to an analysis published by Bloomberg View. Norway's sovereign wealth fund posted $ 21 billion in revenue in the third quarter, thanks to global equity gains. As part of a long-term review that will raise the fund's equity allocation to 70%, the Norwegian government has appointed a committee of outside experts to advise on how to invest the bond share. This is a surprisingly controversial issue. In September last year, IMF managers suggested limiting the scope of its debt investments as the fund invests adequately in currency, emerging market and corporate risk in the much larger equity portfolio. As such, fund managers argued that bonds should not carry the same type of exposure, which is often much less liquid. While the Committee of Experts expressed a divergent view, saying that the current large-scale investment in 23 currencies and the widespread exposure to corporate credit helps to minimize risk and maximize investment capacity. According to the Committee's discussions, this investment performance simulates the normative approach in the world of fixed-income world. In fact, members of the Commission say that it is not humanly possible to make decisions to determine sector quotas correctly and consistently so it is better to adhere to herd policy. The debate is astonishing as it is about what the fixed income investment fund should be, and what makes it even more important is that we are talking about the world's largest sovereign wealth fund. To what extent do you want to shackle the hands of fund managers ?, especially if they are willing to work in accordance with their own opinion and strategy. The steady rise in US interest rates and the simultaneous reduction of the Federal Reserve balance sheet are already troubling to emerging markets, with unrest in Argentina and Turkey clearly showing. Meanwhile, recovery from the decade-long financial crisis may be coming to an end, and any economic contraction would certainly increase the difference between corporate bond yields and government bonds. Instead of a global scale, which should include corporate bonds, unsolicited emerging markets or scrap bonds, the fund will stick heavily to government debt due in 10 years, dollars, euros and pounds sterling. To increase this, IFAD needs the flexibility to make strategic investments when it finds opportunities in the bond market and adopt systematic strategies for extraordinary risks. But this is not the kind of effective management that external experts say is appropriate. Keeping an index should remain a top priority, even if it increases the risk of currency and companies. It is hard to feel fully confident with this approach. Liquidity is always the most valued when it wears off. Deceptive follow-up is not always a good thing when there are things that can not be avoided, especially in an environment of higher interest rates. It is logical to reduce the exposure to bonds when yields are limited and when there is already exposure to the same risks in the larger equity portfolio where the upside is theoretically larger. Of course, the yield of a multi-currency bond fund comes more from exposure to the currency rather than bond yield, but as the quantitative easing program and the turbulence of emerging markets approach, it is no longer as guaranteed as in the past. When your fund proposes to reduce the risk of fixed income investments, you should listen. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yota691 Posted February 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2019 Model SWFs Saturday 16 February 2019 42 Yasser Al Metwally Sovereign funds are one of the most important institutions guaranteeing the country's wealth by investing money to secure the future of the country. It also guarantees the future of future generations of wealth returns. This is what economists and finance experts agree on. The economic theories are comprehensive, capitalist, or deficient. The Prime Minister has been able to put the right basis for the selection of the sovereign fund model, which ensures the investment of public money in the right way by proposing the establishment of a joint Japanese-Iraqi fund for infrastructure projects and services with productivity on the sidelines of his meeting with the senior adviser to the Japanese government at the end of last year. In this context, the Baghdad Economic Forum started its first activity this year by devoting most of its efforts to studying this important pioneering project based on the belief and belief of the Forum on the importance of the sovereign funds in activating the economic development aimed at investing the Iraqi money. Ensuring the future of the country and ensuring the future of future generations of the returns of the country's wealth and the returns of real investments. The forum (and this impression of its recovery through my meetings with the veteran experts as a founding member) believes that this fund will cut the corruption as the first prime objective. Because the participation of Japan with Iraq in the financing of the Fund will make the investment companies or the transfer of the executed projects keen to preserve the funds of the country and most importantly maintain its international reputation known and thus ensure the safety of projects in terms of quality And the productive life of it. In addition, the common fund is a sovereign guarantee of the rights of both countries. The objectives of this project are to create a spirit of real competition between countries that have interests to invest in the country. The required investments. The partnership with a major country enjoys a global and advanced position such as Japan, which sets the foundation for the adoption and implementation of efficient projects and international standards, as well as their implications in raising the efficiency and capabilities of Iraqi cadres and creating a competitive environment and the ideal model for other sectors. Towards contributing quickly to rebuilding The country. We hope that the efforts of the Baghdad Economic Forum will contribute to strengthening the government's approach towards adopting visions of Iraqi expertise to serve the country's economy. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
