David F. Swensen is Yale University's Chief Investment Officer and manages the university's $7 billion dollar endowment as well as several hundreds of millions of dollars in other investment funds. He serves as a Trustee of the Carnegie Institution of Washington, Director of the Investment Fund for Foundations, Member of the Hopkins Committee of Trustees and Member of the Investment Advisory Committees for the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and the State of Massachusetts. Mr. Swensen also teaches classes on portfolio management at Yale in New Haven
During his fourteen years as Yale's chief investment officer, David F. Swensen has transformed the management of the university's portfolio. Largely by focusing on nonconventional strategies, including a heavy allocation to private equity, Swensen has achieved an annualized return of 16.2 percent, which has propelled Yale's endowment into the top tier of institutional funds. Now, this acknowledged leader of fund managers draws on his experience and deep knowledge of the financial markets to provide a compendium of powerful investment strategies.
Swensen presents an overview of the investment world populated by institutional fund managers, pension fund fiduciaries, investment managers, and trustees of universities, museums, hospitals, and foundations. He offers penetrating insights from his experience managing Yale's endowment, ranging from broad issues of goals and investment philosophy to the strategic and tactical aspects of portfolio management. Swensen's exceptionally readable book addresses critical concepts such as handling risk, selecting investment advisers, and negotiating the opportunities and pitfalls in individual asset classes. Fundamental investment ideas are illustrated by real-world concrete examples, and each chapter contains strategies that any manager can put into action.
At a time when it is becoming increasingly difficult to cope with the relentless challenges provided by today's financial markets, Swensen's book is an indispensable roadmap for creating a successful investment program for every institutional fund manager. Any student of markets will benefit from Pioneering Portfolio Management.

评分这本书是前一个公司的老板在2009年4月送的,团队人手一本。当时读过,居然没有留下什么印象,可见当时主要还是停留在技术层面,没有太多感悟。8年过去了,一直从事投资工作,回头再看,倒觉得像是在聊天一样,颇有几点感悟: 1.这本书写的耶鲁基金的业绩是基于1985-1998年的美...

The second edition is vastly revised. Always helpful.
评分Yale的Swensen也许是最成功的endowment fund manager?不过对评估active funds来说一个难解的问题是skill和performance是两个并不对等的概念,在CAPM world里high return完全可能只是因为managers took excessive risk,并没法justify fund manager的skill
评分浅显入门,但什么detail都没说
评分本书主要阐述了耶鲁大学捐赠基金作为机构投资者的投资方法,具有借鉴意义的是对于资产配置的方法。重点阅读了第4,5,6章。
评分well-rounded structured
