Norway’s $2.3tn Fund Backs a Human-Rights Review at Palantir

Norges Bank Investment Management, which runs Norway’s $2.3 trillion oil
fund, will vote in favour of shareholder proposals calling for a
human-rights review at Palantir Technologies, the data-analytics company
co-founded by Peter Thiel. The fund disclosed it would support motions
on human-rights due diligence and impact assessment, and on reporting of
political contributions, ahead of Palantir’s annual general meeting on
June 3. The fund publishes its voting intentions in advance, and the
disclosure functions as a public signal as much as a ballot. The central
proposal, filed by the Congregation of the Sisters of St Joseph of
Peace, asks Palantir to conduct and publish a human-rights impact
assessment, the standard due-diligence tool a company uses to identify
and account for harms connected to its products.
