DNB phases out oil and shipping fund

The fund owns a majority share of the investment in BW Offshore and other oil companies, and so far this year, it shows a negative 41 percent return.
"The fund DNB Navigator was established in 1997, and is now being phased out after 23 years. This relates to a dropping interest from our customers – especially in the last year," writes DNB Communications Advisor Cecilie Skjennald in an email to the Norwegian business newspaper Dagens Næringsliv. | Photo: Stig B.
