Endowments and Total Assets
On June 30, 2007, total assets held for the University of Florida were $1.55 billion. The majority of these assets are maintained in permanent, endowed funds which are invested to produce annual income, while other assets reside in non-endowed, spendable funds. Examples of other assets held include real estate, trust funds, art and history museum collections and even livestock.
Endowment assets are invested through the University of Florida Investment Corporation (UFICO), created in 2004 to manage UF’s investment portfolio. UFICO is headed by a Chief Investments Officer who reports to a volunteer board of directors and to the president of the University of Florida.
