According to Walter Bloomberg, a breaking-news account, on the 22nd (local time), major Nordic pension funds are reassessing their allocation to U.S. assets.
Swedish, Danish and Finnish pension funds have recently judged that the risk premium applied to U.S. equities, bonds and dollar assets has risen, and some institutions are reportedly selling U.S. Treasuries.
The outlet said discussions are intensifying about diversifying investment regions away from U.S.-centric asset allocation, as rising geopolitical tensions and growing policy uncertainty in the U.S. have increased investment risks.
Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump has previously warned that he could take strong retaliatory measures if Europe sells U.S. Treasuries or other U.S. assets.
