Maybe not exactly, though a survey by SEI found that while educational institutions have boosted their allocations to alternatives, most of the schools are not confident their investment committees are doing an adequate job monitoring the managers of their funds. The SEI's Nonprofit Group Quick Poll found that 72% of schools surveyed have upped their alternative assets allocations, but 62% of them were not so sure those monitors were watching closely enough to be aware of any unauthorized switches to riskier investments. "Further complicating matters," says SEI's Carolynn McLaurin, "is the fact that there could potentially be greater auditing scrutiny around alternatives and how they are managed. This poll shows that some educational institutions feel they don't necessarily have the resources or the processes in place to fully manage some of the exposures their organizations face." The poll found that while many financial executive and investment committee members respondents expressed concerned over inadequate monitoring, only 29% of those that increased allocations to alternatives channeled additional resources for that purpose. In other findings, 91% of those polled now invest in alternatives, with 78% allocating at least 10% of their assets to them.
