Global SWF - Sovereign Wealth Funds & Public Pension Funds

At Global SWF, we focus on State-Owned Investors, including Sovereign Wealth Funds and Public Pension Funds, because it is what we know well. We are industry experts that have worked with these investors on the ground for many years, amassing unique knowledge and relationships. Our ultimate mission is to promote a better understanding of and connectivity into SWFs and PPFs, through three different verticals:

✔ Consulting: establishment of new funds, peer benchmarking and investment facilitation, among others;

✔ Data & Research: access to the most comprehensive platform of SOIs' strategies, portfolios and staff;

✔ SWF Academy: co-run the world's only Executive Education program dedicated to Sovereign Investors.

Global SWF Data Platform is an innovative and comprehensive tool that tracks all the world's Sovereign Investors and provides insights into the strategies, portfolios and executives of the most prolific funds, in terms of size, investment activity and market interest - please refer to the next tab for the Top 200 funds.

These investors operate in the sometimes complex fiscal and macro landscape of their country. We believe it is crucial to understand such context, which we call Country Inc. The table below displays the world's major outbound territories, along with the number and size of the vehicles operating in each of them.
