Sovereign wealth funds are a growing and dynamic force in
international finance. The shifting international economic
relations from capital rich states gives them new power in
influencing the global agenda. Despite controlling trillions of
dollars in the biggest companies in the world, little is known
about the opaque funds of oil rich and non-democratic governments.
This is the first book to compile a history of sovereign wealth
funds recounting the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority's involvement
with the scandal-plagued BCCI bank and Chinese arms exports to
Iran. By constructing a history within the proper context of oil
driven surpluses and large inflationary pressures with no
international investment framework, this book explains the
development and growth of sovereign wealth funds. The economics of
capital surplus countries and investment strategies are examined in
order to better understand sovereign wealth fund creation and
growth. In a straightforward and accessible style, the author
examines the complex and amazing growth of an unknown group of
investors controlling trillions of dollars worldwide.
