About the film:
This documentary film provides insight into the Norwegian Government Pension Fund Global, the world's largest sovereign wealth fund, which owns 1.5% of the world's stock market. In a world characterized by climate crises, increasing inequality, migration and water and food shortages, the Norwegian sovereign wealth fund faces a number of ethical dilemmas in its quest to ensure the welfare of future generations. This thought-provoking documentary asks the question: ‘Can the financial sector help change the world for the better?’
