TIFF hosted the webinar Stayin’ Alive: The Importance of Risk Management in a Risky Market on June 8, 2022. During this hour-long webinar, members of TIFF’s Diversifying Strategies team, Zhe Shen and Suzanne Dugan discussed how TIFF focuses on risk management and preservation concepts, and why we feel it is useful to partner with hedge fund managers. This webinar is the first of a risk management series.

The webinar was based on Diversifying Strategies’ recent white paper, which introduces TIFF’s hedge fund investment philosophy. Read the paper here.
