Lower the RISK of principal loss through diversification across multiple asset types and seek protection against potential inflation (e.g. TIPS: Treasury Inflation Protected Securities; baskets of commodities, including gold and silver; real estate and REITs; investments that generate income within 18 months of committed capital; and consideration of hedging, including options).
Seek higher positive-IMPACT investments across all asset types (e.g. cash, fixed income, public equity, private equity, real estate, etc.). Using the HIP (Human Impact + Profit) Scorecard evaluation tools, target a 100% invested for impact by 2020. Today, the portfolio’s weighted average HIP Score is 64%.
