Hi Garfield,
Thanks for the update.
Is there public documentation somewhere about WMF investment policy? Who manages the investments, how was that firm or people chosen, and how often is the performance and risk of the portfolio and the investment manager reviewed by the Board? I am particularly interested in making sure that the investments chosen are in alignment with the values of the Foundation and have suitable risk levels, and I hope that the Board reviews these issues periodically.
I remember that there has been discussion about an endowment, and I think that these questions would be reviewed as a part of the consideration of establishing an endowment.
Thanks,
Pine
