Abstract:The Sovereign Wealth Funds (SWFs) are large, concentrated and growing investment vehicles. Their current estimated value is USD 3 trillion. Due to the combination of low transparency and government ownership, there are questions raised about political agendas, national security, and transfers of technology. This article reports on the current status of SWFs as to investments, regulation, governance, and transparency of activities. In addition, reviewed are some recent studies on SWF investments with their impact on financial markets.
