The fund is explicitly barred from investing in narcotics, illegal substances or arms.

B.C.’s newest Crown corporation, the 29th, opened for business last week, two years after the idea was hatched.

Companies involved in countries subject to sanctions or that are subject to claims by the province are also off-limits.
