How can we apply the same emergency measures that Harvard and other universities are using to navigate a financial crisis? Also, how universities invest their endowments and what their performance has been.

Topics covered include:

  • What has led to the financial crisis at Harvard
  • What actions has the university taken
  • How do endowments invest and spend their funds
  • How endowments maintain intergenerational equity
  • How we can apply the principles universities use in our own investing
