eyed Safdar Hosseini, NDFI President met
Jens-petter Kjemprud, ambassador of Norway to Tehran. The two sides agreed to
take practical measures for cooperation among the national Funds of the two
countries.
Hosseini appreciated Ministry of Finance
of Norway for hosting the fifth annual meeting of IFSWF and invited the
Norwegian professionals to attend the seventh annual meeting of IFSWF in Iran
in 2015. The meeting will be a day before the second NDFI International
Conference (NIC2015) in which practitioners and academicians share their
thoughts.
He regarded Government Pension
Fund-Global as a very successful fund and asked for transfer of knowledge and
experience. He expressed hope that cooperation of the two funds enhances the
economic relations of the countries.
He explained NDFI structure, assets,
investments and legal framework and said NDFI is ready to make investments in
money and capital markets of Norway and Europe, co-finance projects and
exchange experience with GPFG.
Jens-petter Kjemprud praised NDFI for
its achievements during sanctions and described diversified portfolio of Norway
Fund. He expressed hope that by relaxing sanctions in near future, the
Norwegian companies use the opportunity and invest in Iran’s vast market,
particularly in oil sector. Based on him, Iran has made good progress in
certain technologies but regarding oil industry, Norwegian companies could be
very helpful for transfer of technology for oil extraction. He also announced
that relevant people from Norway will definitely participate in IFSWF and NDFI
2015 event in Iran.
He added that change is not made
overnight and the two sides should take steps just now and some Norwegian
companies have already started communicating with their Iranian counterparts.
He welcomed NDFI cooperation with GPFG in Joint Ventures, co-financing and all
other types of investment in Norway and Europe.
Dr. Hosseini elaborated on investment
opportunities in Iran and the incentives for foreign investors, including the
NDFI facilities, up to 70% of the project. All Norwegian investors could
benefit from NDFI loans for their investments in Iran.
The two sides were optimistic about the
outcome of Geneva negotiations and considered it excellent opportunity for Iran
and the whole world.
