Take a listen while we examine: What insights and opportunities led to the creation of this segment of organizations and why has that exploded in the ensuing four decades?  What defines a successful OCIO?

Guests: Mark Anson, CAIA, CFA;  CEO, President and CIO, Commonfund Sarah Samuels, CAIA, CFA: Partner, NEPC Episode Sources
