Replying to Sandra Cobena (Conservative)

“Mr. Chair, the minister did not answer the question. They will be borrowed funds, $25 billion in borrowed funds, whereas Norway funds it by surpluses. My next question is this: Norway also ensures diversified global investments, so how is this fund expecting the best-in-class returns without global diversification?”
