Public Release – 4Q 2014 Linaburg-Maduell Transparency Index Ratings

Posted on 02/15/2015

The fourth quarter results for 2014 on sovereign wealth fund transparency have now been released to the public. The Linaburg-Maduell Transparency Index was developed at the Sovereign Wealth Fund Institute by Carl Linaburg and Michael Maduell.

Angola’s sovereign wealth fund was added to the transparency index. After reviewing, FSDEA received a score of 8. Mumtalakat Holdings has increased its score to a 10.

The Linaburg-Maduell transparency index is a method of rating transparency in respect to sovereign wealth funds. Pertaining to government-owned investment vehicles, where there have been concerns of unethical agendas, calls have been made to the larger “opaque” or non-transparent funds to show their intentions.
