Norway's sovereign wealth fund, the world's largest, said on Thursday that its investment portfolios suffered a loss of $30 billion in the third quarter due to rising interest rates weakening the returns on its bond holdings.
The person in charge of managing this fund, which amounts to 2.3 trillion US dollars, Norges Bank Investment Management, stated that the book return for that quarter was a loss of 278 billion Norwegian kroner (approximately 29.7 billion US dollars).
The fixed-income investment return of this fund was -3.5%, and the fund management team stated that this is a key reason for the overall decline.
Deputy CEO Trond Grande stated in a statement: "The fund's returns were nearly flat, and ultimately slightly negative, as rising interest rates led to weaker performance in our fixed-income investments."
