Likewise, the billion shekels ($ 291 million) needed to launch the sovereign wealth fund operation would only be available between late 2021 and mid-2022.Simhon thinks the tax administration’s current forecast is reasonable, with limited room for variation.\n\n \n \n\n\n \n \n \nProfessor Avi Simhon explained that the only OECD country with a sovereign wealth fund for natural resource revenues is Norway; but given that this country holds the equivalent of several trillions of shekels, this is not an example for Israel to follow.He also added that large infrastructure projects were being undertaken by foreign firms, especially from China.\n\n \n \n\n\n \n \n \nSource: Times of Israel\n\n \n \n\n","author":15,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","tags":[5766,5751,5805,5818,6083],"location":[5647],"class_list":["post-29380","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry","tag-economic-analysis","tag-economy","tag-finance","tag-investment","tag-taxes","location-israel-2"],"short_url":"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3aLDsgs","have_related_news":"done","chapo":"The prime minister's economic adviser, Professor Avi Simhon, told a Knesset committee on August 11 that Israel's natural resource revenues, which are supposed to be invested abroad in a paid fund, should instead be re- directed in the development of the country's infrastructure.","media":{"src":"https:\/\/www.ecomnewsmed.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/08\/israel-how-to-invest-the-income-from-its-natural-resources-why-not-in-the-countrys-infrastructure-550x360.jpg","srcset":"https:\/\/www.ecomnewsmed.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/08\/israel-how-to-invest-the-income-from-its-natural-resources-why-not-in-the-countrys-infrastructure-550x360.jpg 550w","sizes":"550px","alt":"Israel: How to invest the income from its natural resources?
