OSLO, April 29 (Reuters) - Norway's sovereign wealth fund, Europe's biggest equity investor, has had roughly a zero percent return on its investments in global stocks and bonds so far in 2009, its executive director said on Wednesday.
"Markets were very weak in January, so the portfolio dropped further, but markets picked up and total returns are at around zero percent so far this year," Executive Director Yngve Slyngstad told a hearing at the Norwegian parliament.
