EDHEC released a research paper on Sovereign Wealth Funds that finds that it probably makes more sense for governments to respond only in serious situations, rather than to issue generalised guidelines now, with unnecessary bureaucratic force.
“Any serious threat to national interests from a foreign state fund is likely to be a relatively rare incident”, the report argues. “It cannot be gainsaid that it is possible for an SWF to be used for hostile purposes, but this is likely to be infrequent. If they do indulge in undesirable activity, the Western governments have the ultimate deterrent of legislation in their hands.”
