E313: Why the Endowment Model Doesn’t Work for Taxable Investors

yeah no not clear documentation is one that's that's clear just making investments ad hoc some family member comes in i want to invest into this this private equity like look at this just direct investment can you please look at this it's you know it's a it's either a real estate deal down the street or it's a buddy's you know venture um idea that he's raising for past the hat and um

Who has say in those investments is obviously a very important thing.

Creating an investment committee or an investment advisory function or something that can rest within the family also is something of importance.

And I know it's very difficult.

And so how do you find a resource for you that can bring all of this together?

How I Invest with David Weisburd
E313: Why the Endowment Model Doesn’t Work for Taxable Investors

because it requires a deep middle and back office and significant amount of operational resources to go do that.

E313: Why the Endowment Model Doesn’t Work for Taxable Investors

And majority of firms out there or, you know, single advisors aren't prepared to do that, don't have resources to do that.

E313: Why the Endowment Model Doesn’t Work for Taxable Investors

From getting fund updates to understand what portfolio companies are doing, if they're fund level, if it's private investments, what are your exposures and how does that roll up into your broad overall asset allocation?

That's right.

How I Invest with David Weisburd
