The endowment has committed to aligning its $4 billion in assets under management with its mission and values and is developing a new impact framework to guide its investment decisions.
The university will consider approving an impact investment policy statement and investing 0% to 25% of its portfolio in impact investments as part of the policy this week.
The fund approved a strategic new asset allocation that included a maiden target to private credit and increases to its allocations to private equity, bank loans, natural resources, infrastructure and cash at its board meeting last week.
The university revised the target asset allocation for its endowment last year, pivoting toward absolute return investments as well as public and private equity.
