How Norway’s oil fund could co-invest with World Bank in renewables

Yellen for facilitating co-investments by pension funds and multilateral development banks, wants to join forces with Norway’s oil fund, the world largest sovereign wealth fund, to invest billions of dollars in renewable energy. The Amsterdam-based ILX says investing with development banks offers solid returns and low reputational risk. Dutch and Danish pension funds are already onboard.
