A survey cited by multiple outlets reports that sovereign wealth funds and central banks, managing about $29 trillion in assets, are increasing their focus on energy investments as they reassess portfolios amid geopolitical uncertainty and perceived dollar risk. The findings are attributed to an Invesco survey published on Monday. The survey includes responses from 90 sovereign wealth funds and 54 central banks. Respondents indicate a priority on diversification and on portfolios designed to remain stable under stress. The outlets describe this as a move toward assets that may be more resilient during periods of disruption, alongside heightened concern about the U.S. dollar.
