TRX Norway's $2.3tn sovereign wealth fund posts $30bn Q3 loss on bond selloff
Hedgeweek, citing a CNBC report, says Norway's $2.3tn sovereign wealth fund recorded a $30bn investment loss in the third quarter as rising interest rates drove bond valuations down. Norges Bank Investment Management reported a loss of 278bn kroner ($29.7bn) for the three months to September, with its fixed income portfolio returning -3.5%. The report attributes the downturn to a surge in sovereign bond yields as major central banks, including the US Federal Reserve, raised rates amid persistent inflation, with concerns over government borrowing adding pressure.
