Partnerships

At the SBAI, we partner with leading organisations in the financial industry, who support our mission of improving industry outcomes by advancing responsible practices, partnership and knowledge. We believe that we can achieve the best results by collaborating globally with like-minded organisations on education, industry resources, transparency tools and sharing knowledge.

The International Forum of Sovereign Wealth Funds (IFSWF) is a global network of sovereign wealth funds and custodian of the Santiago Principles, which set out the Generally Accepted Principles and Practices (GAPP) for sovereign wealth funds and are voluntarily endorsed by all IFSWF members.

The IFSWF and the SBAI have established a Mutual Observer relationship to help ensure that SWFs are active participants in our activities and our standard-setting process. The Mutual Observer role will enable us to foster a constructive dialogue between alternative investment managers and SWFs, collaborate on issues of mutual interest, make our resources accessible to the SWF community and invite SWFs to take an active part in our process.
