Abstract

Sovereign Wealth Funds (SWFs) have become increasingly influential in the global financial system, serving not only as state investment vehicles but also as instruments of macroeconomic stabilization. This study explores how asset diversification strategies employed by leading SWFs—such as Norway’s GPFG, Singapore’s GIC and Temasek, the UAE’s ADIA, and Qatar’s QIA—contribute to global economic resilience. Utilizing a qualitative approach and thematic analysis, the research synthesizes insights from policy documents, academic literature, and institutional reports to assess the strategic rationale, governance structures, and risk management practices underpinning SWF operations. The findings reveal that robust asset diversification, especially when aligned with long-term mandates, transparency, and ESG integration, enhances a fund's capacity to act as a counter-cyclical buffer during economic crises. However, geopolitical influences, governance opacity, and illiquid asset exposures pose significant challenges. This study contributes to the growing discourse on sovereign investment by affirming the critical role of SWFs in promoting global economic stability, and offers policy recommendations for optimizing their structure and strategy in both developed and emerging economies.

Abstract

This study examines the relationships between work-life balance, organizational support, job satisfaction, and retention intention, with employee engagement as a mediating variable, focusing on professional players in the ARTEX E-SPORT team in Padang. Utilizing a quantitative research design with a saturated sampling technique involving 35 respondents, data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS.

The independent variables used are education level (X1) and compensation (X2). The dependent variable is employee work productivity (Y). The type of research methodology used is the causative method. The data used are primary and secondary data. Primary data was obtained by interviewing a sample of 97 Padang City Market Service employees. The analysis tool used is Multiple Linear Regression with the SPSS version 19.0 program. The results of the study show that the first hypothesis (H1) can be accepted. It can be seen that the tcount value for this variable is 3.137. Meanwhile the value in the 5% distribution table is 2.376. Then tcount (3.137) > ttable (2.376). This means that the education level variable (X1) has a positive influence. This is also reinforced by the significance value (0.004 <0.050) meaning that the education level variable (X1) has a positive and significant effect on the work productivity of Padang City Market Service employees. Whereas the second hypothesis (H2) is also accepted, seen in the tcount value for this variable of 5.020. Meanwhile the value in the 5% distribution table is 2.376. Then tcount (5.020) > ttable (2.376). This means that the compensation variable (X2) has a positive influence. This is also reinforced by the significance value (0.000 <0.050) meaning that the compensation variable (X2) has a positive and significant effect on the work productivity of Padang City Market Service employees. For the third hypothesis (H3) it is also accepted that Fcount is 15.535, while the results of Ftable in the distribution table with an error rate of 5% are 3.44. This means Fcount > Ftable (15.535 > 3.44). These calculations show that the variable level of education (X1) and compensation (X2) together have a positive and significant influence on employee productivity variables (Y).
