Sovereign Wealth Fund Research Initiative

The Sovereign Wealth Fund Research Initiative (at Universite Paris-Dauphine) is a research center focusing on SWFs and other long-term sovereign investors, and provides a platform for discussion between sovereign investors, academics, policy makers and practitioners.

The SWF Research Initiative explores how sovereign wealth funds can deliver solutions to address the current financial, social, and environmental challenges, and why addressing such global challenges can financially benefit investors. To achieve this goal the SWFRI facilitates discussion between the academic and investment communities to help global public investors operationalize academic research on these topics.

The SWFRI's research agenda is driven by faculty from the College de France, Columbia University and Paris Dauphine University, and it is funded by a group of global financial institutions.
