How do sovereign wealth funds invest?
SWFs invest in a variety of asset classes such as stocks, bonds, real estate, private equity and hedge funds. Many sovereign funds are directly investing in institutional real estate.
How do sovereign wealth funds affect governance of firms?
Sovereign wealth funds increase corporate cash holdings through their active role in corporate governance. Temasek ownership affects cash holdings by hoarding excess cash and reducing capital expenditure, especially within firms with good governance.
