KUCHING: The Sarawak Sovereign Wealth Future Fund (SSWF) is expected to continue expanding progressively, with a focus on diversifying its investment portfolio in line with its long-term strategy and defined risk tolerance.
Deputy Premier Datuk Amar Awang Tengah Ali Hasan said the fund has shown positive progress as it entered the investment implementation phase in 2025.
According to him, the initial phase involved investments in fixed income instruments both domestically and globally, guided by the principle of capital preservation as the foundation of fund management.
“At the same time, efforts to become part of the global investment community, including participation in international forums, reflect the fund’s aspiration to grow into a globally recognised financial institution operating in accordance with international standards,” he said during the SSWF Hari Raya Aidilfitri gathering held at State Legislative Assembly (DUN) Complex here yesterday (April 8).
The event was also graced by Head of State Tun Pehin Sri Dr Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar and his wife, Toh Puan Datuk Patinggi Fauziah Mohd Sanusi.
He added that the success of the fund does not rely on a single party, but is the result of close collaboration among various stakeholders, including government agencies, strategic partners, advisors and other stakeholders.
In this regard, he expressed hope that SSWF will continue to play a key role in supporting Sarawak’s development aspirations and serve as a catalyst for the state’s long-term prosperity.
