Using Debt to Unlock Financial Flexibility
In April, we hosted a webcast that addressed critical strategies in nonprofit debt management.
John Griffith, Endowment Specialist at Hirtle & Co., was joined by debt experts Eric Jordahl and Geoff Stenger from Kaufman Hall. They tackled key questions related to debt management, including:
– How can you gauge the optimal level of debt?
– What is the relationship between debt and the endowment?
– What is the lending environment today for nonprofit borrowers?
With interest rates as low as they are today, now is a good time to think about taking advantage of inexpensive financing. There is an opportunity to free up capital that can be invested in higher-returning assets, such as the endowment. We encourage trustees and staff of nonprofits to listen in and learn how debt can be used as a tool to maximize the value of their organization.
