Other:
Since September 2015, I have been a voting member on the Harvard University Committee on pensions. I do not do consulting work or make paid presentations to any investment managers employed or being considered by Harvard in this capacity.
As part of my work at Harvard Business School, I regularly write cases about hedge funds, investment managers, and their strategies. I receive no compensation from these managers for writing these cases, and the cases are not meant as endorsements of the managers or their strategies. I receive royalties (currently under $1500 per year) for cases I have written while employed at Harvard.
