RIYADH: Oman’s sovereign wealth fund posted $7.8 billion in profits in 2025, as stronger public market gains and restructuring across state-owned companies boosted returns and improved the performance of its portfolio.
Citing SWF Global data, Oman Investment Authority said it delivered a 14.6 percent return on investment in 2025, ranking third globally among sovereign wealth funds and first for public market returns, according to the press release.
The fund, which manages about $60 billion in assets, also said it exceeded its annual performance targets by 105 percent.
Oman has historically operated at a smaller scale than its Gulf neighbors, making OIA’s top-three performance ranking a notable result for a fund less than a decade into its current form.
This comes as Gulf sovereign wealth funds expand their global reach, with the International Monetary Fund estimating the region’s funds collectively manage more than $4 trillion in assets, led by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, and Kuwait Investment Authority.
