Danish Pension Fund Decides to Sell Off US Treasury Bonds, Citing US No Longer a Good Credit Risk
BlockBeats News, January 20th: According to foreign media reports, Danish pension fund "AkademikerPension" plans to sell all of its US Treasury holdings by the end of January, citing credit risk in Trump's policies. The fund's Chief Investment Officer, Anders Schelde, stated on Tuesday: "Overall, the US credit situation is not good, and in the long run, the US government's financial situation is unsustainable."
The fund manages around $25 billion in savings for teachers and academics, with its holding of US Treasuries amounting to approximately $100 million by the end of 2025.
Schelde explained that risk management and liquidity management are the only reasons for maintaining the Treasury holdings, but "we have decided we can look for other alternative solutions." Factors driving this decision, Schelde mentioned, included Trump's threatening remarks about Greenland. Additionally, concerns about fiscal discipline and a weak US dollar also prompted the fund to reduce its exposure to US assets.
