We invest to maximize impact

Investing your charitable dollars is an important part of our work. We offer investment strategies to match your giving goals and provide clear, transparent information about our financial position. We realize that every donor’s situation is unique. We offer four investment pools to suit a variety of donor goals, or you may choose to retain your current investment manager. Some limitations apply.

 

Investment Pools

  • This investment pool is a well-diversified portfolio that may invest in global equities, global fixed income, and alternative investments, including private equity, private real estate, real assets, and hedged strategies. The pool is also invested in a select mix of both active and passive investment managers designed to maximize long-term, after-all-cost performance for each asset class. Because of the likely illiquidity of some underlying investments, this pool is best suited for those funds which are permanently endowed or similarly restricted in their liquidity requirements, have an investment time horizon of 10 years or greater, and seek higher long-term returns as compared to a more moderately-balanced, passive investment portfolio.

  • Similar to the actively managed Long-Term Endowment Pool, this investment pool is a well-diversified portfolio which may invest in global equities and global fixed income. In contrast to the actively managed pool, this pool will not invest in alternative investments (private equity, private real estate, real assets, or hedged strategies) and therefore will maintain a higher degree of liquidity. Further, this pool will invest exclusively in lower cost, passive and passive-like investment managers across the various equity and fixed income asset classes. This pool is best suited for those funds which are permanently endowed, have an investment time horizon in excess of 10 years, and seek simplicity along with higher long-term returns compared to a more moderately balanced investment portfolio.

  • This investment pool is a well-diversified portfolio which will invest in a moderate allocation of global equities and fixed income. This pool will not invest in alternative investments (private equity, private real estate, real assets, or hedged strategies) and therefore will maintain a higher degree of liquidity for donors. The pool is invested in a select mix of both active and passive investment managers designed to maximize long-term, after-all-cost performance for each asset class. This pool is best suited for donors and funds that desire a more moderate balance between global equities and fixed income, seek simplicity with potential for market outperformance, and desire more moderate long-term returns with less equity market volatility.

  • This investment pool is a well-diversified portfolio which will invest similarly to the Long-Term Endowment Passive Pool, but with a more moderate allocation to global equities relative to global fixed income. This pool will not invest in alternative investments (private equity, private real estate, real assets, or hedged strategies) and therefore will maintain a higher degree of liquidity for donors. This pool invests exclusively in lower cost, passive and passive-like investment managers across the various equity and fixed income asset classes. This pool is best suited for donors and funds that desire a more moderate balance between global equities and fixed income, seek simplicity along with more moderate long-term returns, and are less comfortable with short-term equity market volatility.
