Alberta Heritage Savings Trust Fund

The Alberta Heritage Savings Trust Fund is a government-managed investment fund established in 1976 to save and invest surplus revenues from Alberta’s natural resources, primarily oil and gas. Its goal is to generate income that supports long-term economic stability and diversity, reducing reliance on resource revenue and funding public services. The fund invests in various assets, including stocks, bonds, and real estate, with earnings used to support education, health, infrastructure, and other public needs. It serves as a financial reserve to help ensure Alberta’s prosperity and sustainability for future generations.
