Norway's $2.3T Wealth Fund to Cut $80B in US Treasuries for Riskier Debt

Norges Bank Investment Management, the world's largest sovereign wealth fund, has proposed a significant shift in its U.S. debt holdings. The fund plans to reduce its allocation to U.S. Treasury bonds by approximately $80 billion, while increasing its investment in riskier U.S. debt instruments like mortgage-backed securities. This strategic adjustment aims to achieve a more diversified benchmark index by incorporating exposure to additional risk premiums, while maintaining its overall exposure to dollar-denominated assets.
