Each SWF has an investment strategy SWFs have undertaken substantial investments across borders Great majority are passive investors Since they have no liabilities they tend to look for long term, illiquid high yielding investments and promoting the domestic economy The goal is to promote a multi-sector economy rather than oil-sector dependant Investment Objective Risk Tolerance Examples Gov’t BondsFixed Income Equity Strategic Stake Real Estate Hedge Funds Private Equity Leverage Buyouts LowHigh Russian Stabilization Fund Pension Fund Global Abu Dhabi Investment Authority Kuwait Investment Authority Tamasek Qatar Investment Authority Stabilization Wealth Accumulation Investment Corporation Dubai Source: SWF Institute, ESCP Europe, IFF

SWFs are a prominent investor class SWF’s are a prominent investor class with their assets rivalling Global Hedge funds and Private Equity combined Wealth for SWFs from surge in commodity prices causing dramatic increase in current accounts (surpluses) SWFs are basically government, which makes them very political and tend to have lack of transparency Source: Morgan Stanley SWF report (2007) Assets Under Management compared to peers ($ bn) Source: SWF Institute

Conclusion SWF’s motives are still unclear. What is clear is that after two financial crisis they have scooped up substantial stakes across important names and industries across the globe. Transparency is an issue What’s next for SWFs? Transfer of knowledge through international joint ventures, mitigate economic downturns through usage of their wealth to spur economic growth, enhance regional and international co-operation
