Sovereign Wealth Funds are government investment vehicles that have
been present for decades. They are usually characterized by minimum
information disclosure, however, this situation differed after
worldwide events shed light on the role they possess to mitigate
their downturns. The substantial economic influence they bring
along due to their size and long term impact have recently created
an uproar of debate that eventually led to the ratification of the
Santiago Principles. The Principles set the stage for governing
SWFs' operations and grant them more clarity. They also contribute
to a more stable environment for cross-border investment flows.
With the importance of SWFs, emerging economies also rose as key
institutional investors; only this time they called for harnessing
their funds towards sustainable development investment strategies.
Despite pressuring need to improve transparency and governance
structures of SWFs in EMs, the former are regarded as promising
means for achieving the sustainable development goals.
