WASHINGTON, Feb 3 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive or
der on Monday ordering the creation of a sovereign wealth fund within the next y
ear, saying it could potentially buy the short video app TikTok.
If created, the sovereign wealth fund could place the U.S. alongside numerous ot
her countries, particularly in the Middle East and Asia, that have launched simi
lar funds as a way to make direct investments with government dollars.
The text of the executive order was sparse on details, and simply directed the T
reasury and Commerce Departments to submit a plan for such a fund within 90 days
, including recommendations on "funding mechanisms, investment strategies, fund
structure, and a governance model."
Typically such funds rely on a country's budget surplus to make investments, but
the U.S. operates at a deficit. Its creation also would likely require approval
from Congress.
"We're going to create a lot of wealth for the fund," Trump told reporters. "And
I think it's about time that this country had a sovereign wealth fund."
Trump had previously floated such a government investment vehicle as a president
ial candidate, saying it could fund "great national endeavors" like infrastructu
re projects such as highways and airports, manufacturing, and medical research.
Administration officials did not say how the fund would operate or be financed,
but Trump has previously said it could be funded by "tariffs and other intellige
nt things."
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told reporters the fund would be set up within
the next 12 months.
"We're going to monetize the asset side of the U.S. balance sheet for the Americ
an people," Bessent said. "There'll be a combination of liquid assets, assets th
at we have in this country as we work to bring them out for the American people.
"
One approach would be to convert the U.S. International Development Finance Corp
(DFC) to function similar to a sovereign wealth fund, which the Trump administr
ation reportedly considered in recent months, Bloomberg News reported. The DFC i
s a government agency that currently partners with private parties to finance pr
ojects in the developing world.
Trump announced Friday he was nominating Benjamin Black to head that development
agency. Black, a managing partner at investment firm Fortinbras Enterprises, is
the son of Leon Black, the co-founder of asset management firm Apollo Global Ma
nagement.

概要:
资金机制不明,但川普先前曾提到关税是资金来源
据报道,拜登政府正在探索设立基金来提高全球竞争力
全球有超过 90 个此类基金,管理超过 8 兆美元的资产
华盛顿 2 月 3 日(路透社)——美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周一签署了一项行政命令,命令
在明年内成立一档主权财富基金,并称该基金可能会收购短视频应用程式 TikTok。
一旦成立,该主权财富基金将使美国与许多其他国家(特别是中东和亚洲国家)并列,这些
国家都已成立了类似的基金,以政府资金进行直接投资。
该行政命令的文本在细节上很少,只是指示财政部和商务部在 90 天内提交此类基金的计划
,包括有关“融资机制、投资策略、基金结构和治理模式”的建议。
通常此类基金依靠一个国家的预算盈余进行投资,但美国却有赤字。它的成立可能也需要国
会的批准。
川普告诉记者:“我们将为该基金创造大量财富。” “我认为这个国家是时候拥有主权财
富基金了。”
川普在担任总统候选人期间就曾提出过这种政府投资工具,称它可以资助高速公路和机场等
基础设施项目、制造业和医学研究等“伟大的国家事业”。
政府官员并未透露该基金将如何运作或融资,但川普先前曾表示,该基金可以透过“关税和
其他智慧手段”来筹集资金。
财政部长斯科特贝森特告诉记者,该基金将在未来 12 个月内设立。
贝森特说:“我们将把美国资产负债表的资产方货币化,造福美国人民。” “我们将利用
我们国家拥有的各种流动资产,并努力为美国人民服务。”
根据彭博新闻社报道,一种方法是将美国国际开发金融公司(DFC)转变为类似于主权财富
基金的职能,川普政府据称近几个月来正在考虑这一做法。国际开发金融公司是一个政府机
构,目前正与私人机构合作,为发展中国家的专案提供融资。
川普周五宣布,他提名本杰明·布莱克担任该发展机构负责人。布莱克是投资公司 Fortinb
ras Enterprises 的执行合伙人,也是资产管理公司 Apollo Global Management 联合创始
人莱昂布莱克的儿子。

个人感想:主权基金不仅可以扩大基建,也可以投资股市,美股是不是又有新成长动能了?
