Endowment Investing Options
100 Women in hedge funds is presenting Notre Dame's Scott Malpass to discuss how endowments approach investments and stay the course in these curious and uncertain times. The event is being held at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange in Chicago on September 4, 2008.
"Staying ahead of the curve is critical for endowments, as performance will affect future gifts and their ability to properly fulfill their obligations."
Scott C. Malpass is vice president and chief investment officer at the University of Notre Dame, responsible for investment of the University's endowment, working capital, pension and life income assets of almost $7 billion. The endowment of some $6.2 billion is the 14th largest in American higher education and the largest at a Catholic university.
