Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to the National Wealth Fund Impact Report 2026, how many jobs have been (a) created and (b) supported by National Wealth Fund investments in each UK nation since the fund's establishment.
The National Wealth Fund (NWF) has a mandate to invest across the UK, ensuring the benefits of its investments are felt in all four nations. It has dedicated directors based in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to support the NWF's view of markets across each nation.
Based on closed and announced transactions up to and including 5 October, the NWF's portfolio comprised 90 investments across the UK, of which 71 investments are expected to impact England, 28 Scotland, 23 Wales and 8 Northern Ireland. Individual investments can impact more than one nation or region and therefore may be represented in more than one of these figures. Across all four regions, the NWF's investments to date are expected to create or support more than 83,000 jobs.
