Norway Wealth Fund CEO Says AI Ends the Need for Climate Hires In this Article Norges Bank Government Pension Fund Global -- Follow Norges Bank -- Follow Anthropic PBC Private company Contact us: Provide news feedback or report an error Confidential tip?

Norges Bank Investment Management will use AI for a range of tasks including to “extract signals from company dialogues,” according to its 2030 Climate Action Plan. The fund also intends to use AI to improve decision making, and “to strengthen investment processes across teams,” ultimately helping it identify corporate winners and losers, it said.
Tangen has made no secret of his enthusiasm for AI. In an interview in May, the 59-year-old former hedge fund manager said he’s been running around “like a maniac” trying to get staff to use the technology, even going so far as to say that employees shunning AI “will never be promoted.”
At Oslo-based NBIM, AI is already proving useful in determining whether the fund’s climate policy is working, Tangen said. That includes evaluating the effectiveness of its engagement with portfolio companies, crunching data to guide recommendations on proxy votes and generating quantitative climate scores, he said. “Portfolio managers get this information directly in their trading systems,” Tangen said. AI can help identify “transition winners,” which he describes as companies that are “decarbonizing faster and more effectively than the market expects.”
During the press briefing, Tangen was asked to comment on ChatGPT’s advice that a long-term investor keen to manage climate risk should reduce its exposure to fossil fuel companies. “We disagree, we won’t do it,” he said. Tangen then asked the head of his climate team, Eivind Filflet, to run the same question by Claude, the language model developed by Anthropic PBC. Claude’s response laid out the case “for continuing engagement,” he said. “But Claude knows me,” Filflet said. Tangen said the example demonstrates why it’s still important to have a “human in the mix.”
