Endowed Long-Term Pool
The Foundation’s endowed pool returns increased during FY10, as the U.S. financial markets rebounded from their lows earlier in 2009. The pool return for the year was 12.1%. Pool returns exceeded the custom benchmark in the one-year, five-year and ten-year periods, and the median return of the Mellon Endowment and Foundation Universe in the five- and ten-year periods.
