Asset Owner:Norges Bank Investment Management

One response to “Why Norges Bank leads the world in transparency”

  1. Mike Clark

    Well yes, they are very transparent. Good.

    But I am afraid they do not always benefit from the advice their transparency permits.

    Please have a look at those very modest return reductions in thier climate scenario work. Climate scientists do not know whether to laugh or cry.

    So far Norges have been deeply resistent to any engagement (even pro bono!) on this issue. Sad.

CalPERS’ private markets chief: TPA won’t disrupt PE commitment pacing

Anton Orlich, CalPERS' newly minted deputy chief investment officer for private markets, says the fund’s July adoption of the total portfolio approach will not impede the private equity strategy launched in 2022, arguing that short-term relative-value calls made under TPA would be expressed in liquid markets and not by oscillating commitments to private markets. In an interview with Top1000funds.com, Orlich unpacks the asset class’s four-year transformation.

NBIM transparently explains half year results

The semi annual report of Norway’s sovereign wealth fund is testament to its commitment to transparency, unambiguously outlining the half year results which came in 0.04% under benchmark. The fund did benefit from a nearly 15% exposure to tech stocks, but was let down by returns in renewable energy infrastructure.

Better performance and alignment of purpose: The benefits of TPA

A total portfolio approach aligns investment implementation with the purpose of being a fiduciary, rather than short term or relative performance. Not only that, there is huge upside performance from the approach, the source of which is not what you might think according to Sue Brake.

Catching up with reality: Investment beliefs need a rethink

Co-founder of the Thinking Ahead Institute, Tim Hodgson, thinks your investment beliefs are out of date. He says if they were written five or more years ago they aren’t grounded in a 2024 reality and inadequately consider climate risk and systems thinking, both essential for a modern day asset owner.
