Norwegian fund faces $30B quarterly loss
The Norwegian Sovereign Wealth Fund, the largest in the world, reported a quarterly loss of $30 billion during the third quarter of 2026, due to a decline in the value of its bond investments caused by rising global interest rates. The wave of selling in bond markets and the increase in government bond yields, particularly in the United States, put significant pressure on the fund’s fixed income instruments, which accounted for more than a quarter of its assets, leading to a 3.5% loss over the quarter. Conversely, the fund’s equity investments, representing 72% of its assets, helped to limit the losses, generating a positive return of 0.5%. It is expected that the fund will continue to reduce its holdings in U.S. bonds, as markets remain volatile due to rising yields and global economic tensions, while maintaining its assets exceeding $2 trillion.
