Jesus will be a featured speaker at the event, providing insights into Marquette’s approach to customizing investment programs that balance the use of traditional and alternative investments while factoring in the demands of an institution’s spending policy, cash flow needs, and operating budget. The event is described as follows: Let’s get into the weeds of the relationship between investments, endowments, and payouts. How do investment decisions get made? What’s the 5% payout all about? How do spending policies differ across foundations? What role do power dynamics play?
