NORWAY’S WEALTH FUND RAISES EXPOSURE TO MALAYSIAN BONDS, INCREASES HOLDINGS IN FEWER STOCKS

Kuala Lumpur, 30 January 2026 – Norway’s sovereign wealth fund, the Government Pension Fund Global (GPFG), significantly increased its exposure to Malaysia in the second half of 2025, led by a near 2.5-fold rise in Malaysian government bond holdings to US$1.44 billion and a modest increase in PETRONAS bonds, lifting its total fixed income investments in the country to US$1.47 billion. The fund also raised the value of its equity portfolio to US$2.8 billion despite trimming the number of stocks held, as it exited 37 companies, reduced stakes in several others, and added 28 new names while boosting investments in selected counters. These moves coincided with a stronger ringgit, faster-than-expected economic growth and stable interest rates, making Malaysian assets more attractive. Overall, GPFG’s investments in Malaysia totalled US$3.15 billion, or about 0.2% of its global portfolio, which delivered a 15% return in 2025.Source - https://theedgemalaysia.com/node/791253 (ICE KUALA LUMPUR)
