The FOSNA aims to make the most of its two distinguishing characteristics, its long-term approach and its considerable size, to generate strong returns and safeguard wealth for future generations. It aims to invest in a wide range of countries, companies and assets to obtain the highest possible return with moderate risk as laid down by the Ministry of Economy and Finance. The fund cannot be invested in Pelaxia. The [[Federal Public Income Agency]] (AFIP) oversees deeply the functioning and capital movement from the organization to the Pelaxian Government, separately. | The FOSNA aims to make the most of its two distinguishing characteristics, its long-term approach and its considerable size, to generate strong returns and safeguard wealth for future generations.

=== Infrastructure and Transportation === | |||
With its strategic position on the coast of the Kindred Sea, Pelaxia is a transport hub into Vallos. Its road network is among the densest in Sarpedon.The motorway developed in the 1960s is widely known for having special ingenuity in order to traverse litoral geographic accidents in the northern region that connect into Caphiria. The largest Pelaxian airports are Albalitor International Airport, Villa Delfia Airport and Montia Airport while they are in total around another 1,000 smaller airports throughout the country..The Port of Albalitor is one of the twenty largest container ports in the world. | |||
The energy grid meets the country's power demands using 40% fossil fuels while 35% is satisfied through hydroelectric power, and it has been called an "early leader" in hydroelectric energy. Most of these hydroelectric installations are located in the northern region of the country, a region historically crippled by an increasing population and thus a steady high demand for power which has led to seasonal major power outages in the most populated urban centers. Pelaxian roads are the primary carriers of freight and passenger traffic. The road system totaled 2,720,000 km in 2029.The total of paved roads increased from 60,496 km in 1967 to 515,000 km in 2028. | |||
Pelaxia's railway system has a long history in the country since the 1850s, and following the conformation of the modern pelaxian state the rail network development and decline has been deeply linked to the national government adherence to provincial integration and presence of federal authority throughout the pelaxian territory, as it is with a vast nation with different regions, customs, climates and languages. Thus the railroad network had its most developments during the 1920s, 1930s, 1950s and lately had a resurgence of public works and constructions since the 2010s. Besides these periods of construction, the network had a steady decline since 1945, when emphasis shifted to highway construction. The country's total railway track length was 50,576 km in 2015, as compared with 45,848 km in 1970, making it the second largest railroad network in Sarpedon. Most of the railway system belonged to the Vías de Pelaxia Corporation (VP), which had several of its branches privatized in the 1980s and 1990s. | |||
For freight transport waterways are of importance, e.g. the northern industrial zones of Termia. The country also has 40,000 kilometers of waterways.Coastal shipping links widely separated parts of the country. | |||
