Are you ready for endowments?

Description

Abstract: With baby boomers — the largest and wealthiest generation in U.S. history — expected to transfer trillions of dollars worth of assets in the next few decades, this could be the right time to launch an endowment. This article explains the two main types of endowments, describes the pros and cons, and addresses managing assets and spending restrictions. “Quasi” endowments also are discussed.
