The operational management is handled by the Norwegian central bank (Norges Bank) through the asset management unit Norges Bank Investment Management (NBIM).

The mandate entered into force on 1 January 2011.

Executive Board documents

To ensure that NBIM achieves its strategic objectives, complies with applicable laws and regulations and maintains sufficient internal controls to govern activities, an investment mandate, a CEO job description and a set of principles are laid down by Norges Bank's Executive Board.
