Norway’s NBIM drops first batch of coal investments
More exclusions planned, pending further analysis
Norges Bank Investment Management (NBIM) has dropped a group of companies from its portfolio because of their reliance on coal, the Norwegian sovereign wealth fund said on April 14.
A total of 52 firms were excluded after thermal coal was deemed to represent a “significant part” of their business, including both mining and energy-producing companies, with offenders cropping up all over the world. Companies using metallurgical coal – for instance, in the production of steel – were not excluded.
