Page not needed edit

This page is not really needed since all content is already on the Sovereign Wealth Fund page. I recommend deleting this page. Is there any content here not on the SWF page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by PatrickFlaherty (talkcontribs) 00:58, 5 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

This article adds the size of SWFs within each country together, unlike the SWF article that just lists all the SWFs around the world. I say it should stay. 129.241.124.127 (talk) 12:57, 5 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
But both lists are a mess and inconsistent. Are individual US state retirement funds "sovereign wealth funds"? I don't really think so. They're funded from employee compensation and obligated for retirement only like any pension. But if so, it's missing NYSLRS and NYSTRS which together have something north of $300 billion just for those. And that's just off the top of my head. Also, I think both lists would benefit much by having columns with assets/capita and assets/citizen, which give a better sense of proportion. That really changes the numbers, e.g. China is #1 on this list but has about $1 per capita and per citizen. UAE is close behind China but has $141,000 per capita and $928,000 per citizen, Norway is #3 and has $190,000 per capita, $226,000 per citizen, Singapore is #5 and has $99,000 per capita, $163,000 per citizen. Small states with large migrant/expat populations are in a very different position. NTK (talk) 05:53, 20 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Abu Dhabi, Dubai, etc. edit

Should the member emirates of the UAE be put together in one entry? Each of them manages their own investment portfolio. 219.76.18.208 (talk) 10:09, 6 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
