Annual report 2022
The fund returned -14.1 percent, or -1,637 billion kroner, in a year of rising interest rates, high inflation and war in Europe. However, the market value of the fund increased by 90 million kroner. This was because the krone fell against the currencies in which the fund is invested, and because new capital was added to the fund. The fund’s return was 0.87 percentage point higher than the return on the benchmark index, equivalent to 117 billion kroner.
