How Spain is affected by the change in Norway's fund portfolio

Norges Bank Investment Management (NBIM), which manages Norway's sovereign wealth fund, is adjusting its investment strategy, reducing the share of government debt in its fixed-income portfolio from 70% to 50%. This will lead to the sale of around €100 billion in bonds, including around €62 billion in US Treasury bonds and €14 billion in eurozone government debt.

In Spain, NBIM will likely sell over €1 billion in Treasury bonds, but plans to buy around €800 million in Spanish corporate bonds. The fund currently has €2 trillion in assets, including €16.6 billion in Spanish stocks.
