Norway’s sovereign wealth fund posted gains of NOK 698 billion ($68.28 billion) in the first six months of the year, boosted by strong returns in financial sector stocks. 
From January to June, the world’s largest sovereign wealth fund, valued at $2 trillion, returned 5.7%.
“The result is driven by good returns in the stock market, particularly in the financial sector,” CEO Nikolai Tangen said in a statement.
The fund is considered one of the largest investors in the world, owning an average of 1.5% of all listed stocks globally. It also invests in bonds, real estate, and renewable energy projects.
The return on its equity investments during the first half of this year reached 6.7%, the return on fixed income investments reached 3.3%, unlisted real estate reached 4%, and renewable energy infrastructure reached 9.4%.
