Norway wealth fund to vote no on Musk $1 trillion Tesla pay package
Norway’s $1.9 trillion sovereign wealth fund will oppose Musk’s $1 trillion pay plan due to concerns about excessive size, share dilution, and key person risk, ahead of Nov. 6 vote.
- On November 6, 2025, Tesla shareholders will vote on Elon Musk, Tesla CEO's pay package, with Norges Bank Investment Management opposing the proposed deal at the Tesla annual general meeting.
 - Tesla says the award depends on hitting milestones, requiring a $8.5 trillion market value within the next decade, or Musk will earn nothing.
 - A Reuters analysis calculated the post-deduction value of Musk's award at up to $878 billion, while Norges Bank Investment Management holds a 1.12% stake in Tesla worth $17 billion.
 - Tesla's board is pressing for approval as chair Robyn Denholm warned Musk could leave if rejected, while Baron Capital said Monday it will back the plan amid criticism.
 - NBIM will oppose the Tesla general stock compensation plan and vote against two directors, Kathleen Wilson-Thompson and Ira Ehrenpreis, while backing Joe Gebbia on Tuesday.
