Sammendrag
This thesis in Political Economy is a case study of the Government Pension Fund

Global (GPFG) and the climate change strategy in the period 2006 to 2012.

Climate change is a topic of growing interest among investors, and especially

universal owners, due to the financial risks it might entail across all markets. The

main methodological distinction in this study is the historical approach. The

objective has been to find out how climate change is on the agenda, and whether it

has been a consistent strategy over the period. The GPFG is placed within a

distinctive institutional design, which is given attention also in this thesis, and the

three most relevant actors in this regard has been the overall manger of the Fund,

The Ministry of Finance, the operational manager, Norges Banks investment

Management (NBIM), and the independent Council on Ethics. It was found that

climate change is an issue which has gained increased attention over the period.

Among others, it is a focus area in NBIM’s ownership activity and the Ministry

has initiated large research projects on the financial effect of climate change.

There has however been some inconsistency in how the actors communicate their

climate change strategy with the owners of the GPFG, the Norwegian people.
