Investments

At the Amherst College Investment Office, we are dedicated to building an investment portfolio that generates the returns the College needs to thrive today and in the decades to come. The endowment, valued at $2.473 billion as of June 30, 2019, is intended to provide perpetual support to the College in service of its mission. It has supported over 50% of the College’s operating budget for the last 5 years, and its size - thanks to generosity of our donors and strong performance over decades - is a big reason the College can afford to be need blind both domestically and internationally. 

We are always on the hunt for excellent investment partners. If you are an investment manager and would like to submit an investment opportunity for our review, please complete this form.  Your submission will be reviewed by the Investment Office and we will contact you if interested in learning more.
