Could Norway’s SWF really disappear?

Rising geopolitical risks and an AI correction could severely impact the value of the $2.2 trillion Norwegian sovereign fund, according to its chief executive Nicolai Tangen, who went so far as to say the fund could "disappear."

Temasek chief executive Dilhan Pillay says the sovereign investor is likely to miss its 2030 interim climate target, as exposures to the aviation and power generation sectors are crimping the investor’s ability to reduce portfolio target emissions.
