Norway SWF tops list of most transparent funds globally

Government Pension Fund Global, Norway’s giant sovereign wealth fund, has topped the list of the most transparent funds in the 2023 Global Pension Transparency Benchmark, beating last year’s winner CPP Investments by only one point.

GPTB 2023: The funds that excelled

The highest scoring funds overall in the 2023 Global Pension Transparency Benchmark were also among the biggest improvers. Both Norway’s Government Pension Fund Global and AustralianSuper increased their scores by 14 points and were the biggest improvers in the top 10. Others included CDPQ, CalPERS, and PFZW.

As the Australian superannuation funds evolve and get bigger they face a question of whether to copy the organisational structures of their bigger, more sophisticated Canadian counterparts, or find their own way that more adequately befits some of their unique features and better serves members.
