en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_Pension_Fund_of_Norway

Folketrygdfondet, the official manager of the Government Pension Fund Norway, says the fund is not restricted only to Norwegian-listed companies. Its official description states that "The capital is also invested in Sweden, Denmark, and Finland" and that the benchmark is 85 percent in Norway and 15 percent in the rest of the Nordic region. So the claim that the fund is required to limit its investments to companies in the Norwegian stock market is incorrect.

For Bank Hapoalim BM, Norges Bank's official exclusion materials do not list 2 July 2025 as the exclusion date. In its 18 August 2025 letter to the Ministry of Finance, Norges Bank states that the Executive Board decided on 8 August 2025 to exclude six companies connected to the West Bank and Gaza, based on recommendations dated 25 June and 2 July. Norges Bank's official exclusion list then shows Bank Hapoalim BM with publishing date 25.08.2025. That means the Wikipedia row is using a recommendation date as if it were the exclusion date.

For Bank Leumi Le-Israel BM, Norges Bank's official documents show that 2 July 2025 was part of the recommendation timeline, not the exclusion date. Norges Bank told the Ministry of Finance that its Executive Board decided on 8 August 2025 to exclude six companies based on recommendations dated 25 June and 2 July. On Norges Bank's official exclusion list, Bank Leumi Le-Israel BM appears with publishing date 25.08.2025. So this Wikipedia row mislabels the recommendation date as the exclusion date.

For Caterpillar Inc., Norges Bank's own records do not support 2 July 2025 as the exclusion date. In its official 18 August 2025 letter, Norges Bank says the Executive Board decided on 8 August 2025 to exclude six companies based on Council on Ethics recommendations dated 25 June and 2 July. Norges Bank's public exclusion list then shows Caterpillar Inc. with publishing date 25.08.2025. That means the date in this row is not the exclusion date; it is one of the recommendation dates underlying the later decision.

For First International Bank of Israel Ltd, Norges Bank's official documents show that the exclusion came later than 2 July 2025. In its 18 August 2025 letter to the Ministry of Finance, Norges Bank states that the Executive Board decided on 8 August 2025 to exclude six companies, based on recommendations dated 25 June and 2 July. Norges Bank's official exclusion list then records First International Bank of Israel Ltd/The with publishing date 25.08.2025. So the article is using a recommendation date rather than the exclusion date.

For Mizrahi Tefahot Bank Ltd, Norges Bank's official records show that 2 July 2025 was not the exclusion date. Norges Bank wrote to the Ministry of Finance that its Executive Board decided on 8 August 2025 to exclude six companies, based on recommendations dated 25 June and 2 July. In Norges Bank's official exclusion overview, Mizrahi Tefahot Bank Ltd appears with publishing date 25.08.2025. The Wikipedia row therefore misstates a recommendation date as the exclusion date.
