CIO Greatest Hits: Endowments – Scott Wilson (WashU)  
Podcast: Capital Allocators – Inside the Institutional Investment Industry
Published On: Mon Jul 21 2025
Description: Our Summer Series kickoff is a twofer, Andy Golden, now retired after thirty years at Princeton University Investment Management Company, and Scott Wilson from Washington University-St. Louis. We packaged these two leading endowments to compare their investment styles.    Scott comes from a direct investing background and has adopted a position-focused approach to diligence and co-investing, leading to a very different portfolio construction. It's perhaps the leading example of a new approach in the endowment world.   Original air date: October 4, 2020   Learn More Follow Ted on Twitter at @tseides or LinkedIn Subscribe to the mailing list Access Transcript with Premium Membership   Editing and post-production work for this episode was provided by The Podcast Consultant (https://thepodcastconsultant.com)
