Israel seeks to turn gas to gold
JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel is putting together a plan for a national investment fund that would put to work an anticipated natural gas bonanza to fuel both an export-geared economy and provide a nest egg of $10 billion in under a decade for future generations . The proposed Israeli sovereign wealth fund is still in the planning phase, but officials have said some of the revenues would be invested in critical areas such as education and health. Also being discussed are using some of the proceeds to endow a new set of export-oriented, technology-based industries that would build on what has traditionally been the country's greatest resource: human capital.
