Board meetings and strategic plans from Saint Vincent College
This document details the investment and distribution strategy for Saint Vincent College's endowment. The primary objective is to preserve and grow the endowment's inflation-adjusted value in perpetuity, generating returns that exceed annual spending plus inflation, to support the College's long-term strategic priorities, scholarships, student programs, and academic initiatives. The strategy emphasizes a long-term, globally diversified investment approach with allocations to equities, fixed income, and selective alternative investments. Key components include adopting a 'total return' concept for distributions (3% to 7% of a three-year rolling average), leveraging commingled funds for efficiency and access to specialized managers, and implementing robust governance and oversight through the Board of Trustees and Investment Committee.
The Saint Vincent Alumni Council meeting included updates from the Alumni Office on the capital campaign, upcoming events, and committee reports. The Executive Committee discussed accomplishments, revisions to the Council Constitution, and Council giving.
