Client Scenario

Strengthening Governance 
for a Regional Foundation

Background & Challenges

A regional foundation approached IDA after experiencing turnover on its investment committee. Policies were outdated, reporting lacked clarity, and the board wanted a more disciplined approach to risk and long-term allocation.

IDA developed a modernized investment policy, clarified spending rules, and implemented a diversified portfolio across public and private markets. We now attend board meetings to provide ongoing oversight, education, and transparent reporting.

The Outcome

  • A clearly defined investment policy
  • A more diversified and resilient portfolio
  • Consistent governance documentation
  • Increased board confidence and alignment
  • A family aligned around their father’s wishes

Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Each client’s situation is unique, and services provided will vary based on individual circumstances, financial condition, objectives, and market factors. The services described may not be suitable for all investors, and similar results cannot be expected. All investing involves risk, including the potential loss of principal.

Begin building an institutional investment strategy grounded in governance, transparency, and long-term discipline so your organization can pursue its mission with confidence.
