The Public Investment Fund (PIF) advanced to the fifth position among the world’s largest sovereign wealth funds (SWFs), after its net assets rose to $940.26 billion, according to the latest data from the SWF Institute.
PIF's assets rose by $163.6 billion, compared to $776.7 billion at the end of December 2023.
This increase came after Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman announced the transfer of 8% of Saudi Aramco’s shares to portfolios of companies wholly-owned by PIF.
As per PIF's five-year strategy, the target is to double the size of its assets to more than SAR 4 trillion ($1.07 trillion) by 2025. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said earlier that the PIF targets to grow its assets to SAR 10 trillion ($2.7 trillion) by 2030.
Norway’s Government Pension Fund Global ranked first with $1.64 trillion assets, followed by China Investment Corp.
The aggregate assets of the world’s SWFs hit about $12.70 trillion, up from $11.67 trillion in July 2023.
