Norway's sovereign wealth fund puts Adani Ports on its watch list

Norway’s sovereign wealth fund has put Canada's Bombardier, India’s Adani Ports and South Korea’s Hyundai Glovis on its watch list for possible exclusion from investment due to ethical concerns. 

Norway's $1.3 trillion wealth fund, which invests the state’s revenues from oil and gas production for future generations, follows an ethical mandate set by parliament.

The fund has a 1.2 per cent stake in the Canadian company, according to
