Investing in Yale's Future
The Yale Investments Office is responsible for managing Yale University's Endowment. The Endowment is sustained by generous gifts from donors and earnings generated through Yale's disciplined, long-term investment approach. Spending from the Endowment supports the educational experience of current students as well as generations of students to come.
