Efficiently and effectively investing your organization's assets can be a daunting undertaking. Foundation & Institutional Advisors, our dedicated practice for nonprofits and tax-exempt entities, can be your strategic partner.

While each client’s investment circumstances are unique, we follow a systematic and disciplined investment process, providing expertise in the areas of program design, asset allocation, manager selection, ongoing oversight and reporting.

We also help boards and investment committees examine their investment programs with fiduciary mindsets and in a manner that furthers the missions of their organizations.

Each relationship is led by a dedicated portfolio manager and supported by a team of specialists, enabling you to manage the strategic elements of your investment program while we handle the day-to-day details.

We create investment strategies with the singular mission of helping your organization achieve its objectives with a high degree of confidence.

Using our carefully developed capital market assumptions, we  use a multi-asset class, multi-manager approach that considers all sources of return and provides robust diversification, maximization of return per unit of risk, and customization to each client’s unique circumstances.

Tactical asset allocation positioning and a discerning manager selection process provide additional value by identifying opportunities to enhance risk-adjusted returns.

Engineered and passive strategies help to access factor-based and market sources of return with cost efficiencies.

Together, these steps result in investment strategies that are risk aware and cost effective while still providing the ability to generate excess returns.
