    About this audiobook

    Inside Billion Dollar Endowments is an approachable yet pragmatic guide for individual investors who want to use the proven investment strategies of large academic endowments.  Written in a conversational style, investors will get a unique, inside look into the niche, obscure world of endowment investing through extensive interviews with the CIOs of several dozen endowments as well as other related endowment fund managers. Divided into three sections, Inside Billion Dollar Endowments will provide sharply-defined specific practices and tools for replicating the investment decisions of top endowments, including asset class allocation, back-testing and fund evaluation; expose readers to contextual information such as the background, structure, investment philosophy and organization of endowment funds; and finally, highlight key differences between individual investors and institutional investors that must be taken into account when attempting to duplicate the performance of the top endowments.
