Abstract

This paper explores forecast of future growth of Sovereign Wealth Funds, we used data of number of funds that were created during period from 1976 to 2012. In this regard, we found that number of SWF´s will rise during period 2013-2030 by 61 from 74 to 135, it means an increase of number of funds by 82.43 percent more compared with during period 1876 till 2012. Second, we provide asset allocations of 14 observed SWFs and different strategies. Third, we examine if Sovereign Wealth Funds will play important role in the future, moreover in terms of assets under management of 74 observed funds in 2014. In addition to this, we found that that 93.21 percent of changes in assets under management of Sovereign Wealth Funds can be attributed to changes (investments) in each future quarters.
