Norway wealth fund CEO in Davos: US inflationary pressure a risk to markets
- The chief executive of Norway's $1.8 trillion sovereign wealth fund, one of the world's largest investors, said on Thursday that inflationary pressure in the United States was one of the biggest risks to financial markets this year.
