Type: Webinar & Events

Investors have endured a challenging six months in the markets as multiple macro-economic events have driven uncertainty to near-term highs. With risk being top of mind for investors, we believe it is useful to discuss how TIFF approaches risk management within our Diversifying Strategies team. In our new white paper, “Stayin’ Alive: The Importance of Risk Management in a Risky Market”, we aim to:

• Introduce some of the metrics and tools we use to monitor risk
• Explain the philosophy behind how we measure hedge fund risk management
• Help readers gain a better understanding of why risk management is critical to long-term portfolio performance
• Bonus: recommend some great tunes to listen to while reading the paper!

On April 20, 2022, TIFF Investment Management hosted the third of four sessions of our Fundraising Symposium. Each session has its own theme and set of presenters, but the purpose of each is the same: To help nonprofits leverage fundraising best practices efficiently and effectively in a post-pandemic landscape.

“Cultivating Major Donors and Transformational Gifts” was hosted by Charlie Cummings, Strategic Advisor at the Do Good Institute at the University of Maryland. Jeff Franco, CEO and Camino Consulting Group and Transformation Leadership Group and Adjunct Professor at the Do Good Institute, led an interactive presentation on the fundraising relationship between a nonprofit and its high net worth supporters.

TIFF Members can access the recording of the session and presentation materials through the Member portal. Download for a high-level summary of this informative event.
