The Norwegian Government Pension Fund Global, which started investing in Sri Lanka in 2015, has more than doubled its investment in Sri Lanka by end of 2016.<br />
<br />
“In 2015, the Norwegian government pension fund made its first investments in Sri Lanka. NBIM has strict criteria for stability and high standards of business conduct when opening investments in a country,” the fund said in a statement. “The fact that NBIM started to invest in Sri Lanka suggests that the Sri Lankan investments opportunities and market standards have improved in the last years.”
