Overview
Based within Cambridge Judge Business School, the Centre for Endowment Asset Management (CEAM) is a research and education centre dedicated to further scholarship and understanding of long-horizon investing. Many institutions, including endowments, foundations, charities, families and sovereign funds, have a long-term focus, and they confront a unique set of investment challenges.
The Centre’s primary objective is to participate in research, teaching and knowledge sharing that extends knowledge and understanding of how to address these issues.
Welcome to the Centre for Endowment Asset Management, part of Cambridge Judge Business School at the University of Cambridge. At our Centre, we focus on building academic knowledge and enabling research impact in the area of long horizon investing. Our role is twofold, adding value to the research community and extending this research beyond academia into policy and practise. We run a programme of activities that serve to formalise and strengthen research networks and facilitate engagement with people working within long-horizon investing. We look forward to working with you in the near future.
