| Sovereign Wealth Funds - A Perspective On Their Presence | |
The recent activities of Sovereign Wealth Funds ('SWFs') have attracted a considerable amount of attention and scrutiny from both the financial and political media - a level of attention not seen since the widespread proliferation of the hedge fund industry in the late 1990's.
