University endowment committees, modern portfolio theory and performance
University endowments with broad portfolio diversification have been correlated with performance, but committees' decision-making process has received relatively little attention. This study is unique in postulating that the committee's learning commitment and open-mindedness are significant contributors to a decision process that is based on the principles of Modern Portfolio Theory (or, simply, Portfolio Theory). The use of Portfolio Theory as a decision-making framework leads to greater portfolio diversification, which, in turn, leads to higher risk-adjusted returns. This study also demonstrates that greater committee expertise across multiple asset classes contributes to more diversified portfolios.
