Fossil Fuel Divestment Bill 2016: Discussion
4:00 pm
Mr. Kieran Bristow:
We refer to the global portfolio transition strategy which is just a fancy name for how we invest short-term in liquid assets to ensure the money is readily available for investing in Ireland. Most of the debt instruments have a maturity of five years or fewer because that is the timescale over which we expect to need the money. These instruments have an average life of about three years with a maximum of five years.
