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.

Stayin’ Alive: The Importance of Risk Management in a Risky Market

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!
