GMRI CAPITAL- Relentless Research

SWF shift the balance of power

The current shift of financial power from multi-national organizations such as World Bank, I.F.C and others to Sovereign Wealth Funds presents developing nations such as Zimbabwe with a new source of foreign direct investment. A sovereign wealth fund (SWF) is a state-owned fund composed of financial assets such as stocks, bonds, property or other financial instruments. Sovereign wealth funds have gained world-wide exposure by investing in several Wall Street financial firms. These firms needed a cash infusion due to losses resulting from the credit crunch caused by the mortgage meltdown which started in the USA.
