Known as the "people's fund," North Dakota's Legacy Fund was created by a constitutional amendment that was initiated by the state legislature and approved by voters. The State Investment Board (SIB) is responsible for administration of the fund. The Legacy and Budget Stabilization Fund Advisory Board serves as the client board and determines the asset allocation.
Thirty percent of the taxes on petroleum produced and extracted in North Dakota are transferred to the Legacy Fund monthly. At the end of each biennium, the fund earnings (as defined by NDCC 21-10-12) are transferred to the state's general fund where they are used to finance a portion of state projects and provide tax relief.
**PLEASE NOTE: Monthly numbers are preliminary and subject to change.
