Endowment Portfolio Performance Report *As of March 31, 2017 Investment Objective The Calgary Foundation takes a long term, total return approach to earn a real return sufficient to preserve the purchasing power of the Foundation's invested assets and minimize grant disbursement volatility. The real return goal shall consist of a spending policy rate (4%) and a provision for operation cost recovery (1%). It is the Calgary Foundation's policy to distribute and spend no more than the fund's real return over the long term.
It is the Calgary Foundation's goal to maximize financial support to the charitable community by retaining the purchasing power of the fund's capital gifts. The current long term nominal rate of return target is equal to the aggregate of the Foundation's prevailing spending policy rate (4%), a provision for operation cost recovery (1%), and an inflation assumption (2%).
