NBIM is an active, conservative manager with a long-term outlook that aims to achieve the highest possible return on the Government Pension Fund Global within the investment mandate set by the Ministry of Finance, which owns the fund on behalf of the Norwegian people. The ministry determines the fund’s investment strategy, following advice from among others, NBIM and discussions in Parliament. The firm’s mandate defines the investment universe and the fund's strategic reference index. The Ministry of Finance has on a regular basis transferred capital to the fund from the Norwegian state's petroleum revenues. The fund's capital is invested abroad, to avoid overheating the Norwegian economy and to shield it from the effects of oil price fluctuations. The fund invests in international equity and fixed-income markets and real estate. It is invested in most markets, countries and currencies to achieve broad exposure to global economic growth. The investments are to produce a high long-term return. NBIM aims to achieve this this with an acceptable level of risk, as a responsible investor and through an efficient organization.
