Government pension fund Norway. Total assets. 30 June 2009-31 December 2012. NOK million

Shares and other equity were valued at a total of NOK 90.4 billion at the end of 2012. This is an increase of 10 per cent from the end of June. The value of the bond portfolio increased by 3.6 per cent, from NOK 51.4 to NOK 53.3 billion, from the end of June to the end of the year. The Fund also had deposits worth NOK 8.8 billion and other financial assets valued at NOK 2.5 billion. At the end of the year, the Fund’s total assets were valued at NOK 154.9 billion, which is 6.2 per cent more than at the end of June.

From the end of 2011 to the end of 2012, the gross value of the Fund increased by NOK 18.5 billion, or 13.6 per cent. Much of this growth is due to an increase in the Fund’s received collateral in securities lending agreements. This also accounts for most of the Fund’s total liabilities of NOK 9.8 billion.
