Returns

Our management mandate is long-term and should be evaluated over time. Therefore, when we report, we also provide returns for the last five and ten years. In addition, we publish historical figures from 2007 back to 1998.

At the end of 2024, the assets under management in the Government Pension Fund Norway amounted to NOK 381 billion. Since 2007, active management has provided an excess return of 100 basis points per year. This corresponds to approximately NOK 60 billion and over 15 percent of the fund's value.
