NACUBO Endowment Management Forum

To view the Agenda, click here.

TIAA-CREF Institute sponsored this program and the theme of this conference was "Alternative Investments in Uncertain Times."

Today, more than ever, endowment committees are concerned about their prospective returns, as stock market valuations remain high on a historic basis even after the third-quarter rout. With a goal of continuing to produce a 6 percent inflation-adjusted rate of return, leading endowment managers have embraced "alternative investing."

Further, investment committees must decide if they need more defensive investments and consider how alternative investments fit into this more conservative decision-making. Fortunately, this conference brings together veteran industry and campus leaders to provide expert guidance on alternative investing.

This Endowment Management Forum provides an opportunity to meet the experts and gain a better understanding of these hot new investment vehicles at this forum

Participants earned a certificate for 10 CPE credits in specialized knowledge and applications.
