A Good Time to Ask

Does the Foundation invest in non-traditional equities?

Yes, we have more than 35% of the portfolio in alternatives investments. The investment committee considers many factors including diversification, risk, asset allocation and liquidity. Many times, alternatives have lower volatility and a better risk/return ratio when compared to traditional equities.
