Honcharenko T: The Digital Endowment
Playbook

The Digital Endowment Playbook

A Practical Guide to Building, Funding, Governing, and Digitising Endowments for European Institutions and Civil Society Organisations

*THE NO.1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* Bill Gates is one of the most transformative figures of our age. In Source Code he takes us back to his beginnings. He describes with candour his childhood in Seattle, the centrality of family - his close relationship with his card-playing grandmother and his demanding but caring parents - his struggles to fit in, his rebelliousness, his first deep friendships and the impact of losing his closest friend. We see Gates's extraordinary mind developing, the restless teenager who discovered a love of coding and computing at the dawn of a new era and felt that 'by applying my brain, I could solve even the world's most complex mysteries'. We see the earliest signs of his phenomenal business acumen, which led him to drop out of Harvard at the age of 20 to devote all his energies to Microsoft, the company he started with his childhood friend Paul Allen. He writes about his first involvement with three Steves - Jobs, Wozniak and Ballmer - who would play a crucial role in so much that followed. The book ends in the late 1970s when Microsoft, still with only a dozen employees, signed its first deal with Apple. The deals would go on and Microsoft would grow unimaginably. Yet Gates never forgot his mother's reminder that he was merely a steward of any wealth that he gained. This warm and inspiring book, Bill Gates' origin story, allows readers to understand his energy and ambition - and to see how he sets himself in the world.

Pitch the Perfect Investment

Praise for SO YOU WANT TO START A HEDGE FUND "So You Want To Start A Hedge Fund offers a very high insights-gleaned to time-spent ratio. If you have any desire whatsoever to start your own fund, read this book. If you have any desire to invest in hedge funds whatsoever, read this book. Given the high stakes involved in the industry, it's probably not hyperbolic to say that the lessons learned could potentially help make (or save) millions." --MarketFolly.com "I strongly recommend this superb book for anyone who is interested in starting a hedge fund, investing in one, or is already in the business. One can learn an enormous amount from Ted's experience analyzing hundreds of start-up funds and from the many case studies he shares in the book." --William A. Ackman, CEO, Pershing Square Capital "Part technical manual, part detailed chronicle of modern money management history, and part personal reflections from the investing world front lines, So You Want to Start a Hedge Fund is a must read for allocators, industry veterans, aspiring managers, and everyday investors. Ted Seides has crafted a definitive guide to one of the 21st century's most dynamic and opaque industries." --Scott Bessent, Former CIO, Soros Fund Management, and Founder and CIO, Key Square Group "Launching a new hedge fund in this hyper-competitive era is a difficult journey riddled with many landmines. Unfortunately, many of these landmines are counterintuitive and cannot be easily avoided. As a seasoned allocator to emerging managers and hedge funds, Ted has seen it all--the good, the bad and the ugly. His book is a treasure trove of wisdom for managers and allocators with many digestible, real-life lessons and vignettes to aid not only in avoiding the landmines, but also in how to thrive. This is must reading for anyone looking to build a fund or allocate to newer ones." --Jason H. Karp, Founder and CEO, Tourbillon Capital Partners "Through an engaging set of lenses, this short book captures the key issues firms and allocators face in creating and managing their organizations and businesses. It's about leadership, organizational design, marketing, and client relations. It's about talent spotting and management. It's about the essence of the industry. The case study format and clear takeaways make this book an easy read. Hedge fund managers who heed Ted's advice will create better and longer lasting firms; allocators will become better investors." --Andre F. Perold, Founder and CIO, HighVista Strategies, and George Gund Professor of Finance and Banking, Emeritus, Harvard Business School "A must read. Ted does an outstanding job explaining in clear language how to stay ahead of the curve in today's hyper-competitive golden age of hedge funds. I wish I had access to this book when I started allocating capital." --Anthony Scaramucci, Founder and Co-Managing Partner, Skybridge Capital, and host of Wall Street Week

The Real Estate Investing Bible

This book traces the evolution of credit markets from their historical roots to the complex, interconnected financial systems of today, examining the profound role of financial innovation in redefining the distribution of capital, expanding access to credit, and managing risk. Each chapter focuses on a specific category of innovation across eight key domains--from institutional transformation and market structure to financial technology, regulation, and risk management--while drawing connections to related developments, emphasizing the deeply interconnected nature of modern credit systems.Credit markets are the lifeblood of the global financial system--powering everything from consumer spending and business investment to infrastructure development and economic resilience. Whether through mortgages, corporate bonds, or sovereign lending, credit fuels economic growth and social advancement. Because these markets determine how capital is allocated, they shape opportunity, innovation, and stability across the world. From the rise of institutional investors and securitized products to the emergence of decentralized finance and AI-driven underwriting, the credit landscape has dramatically transformed over the past several decades. This book explores these innovations, examining how technological, structural, regulatory, and institutional developments have reshaped modern credit markets. Combining historical context with forward-looking, actionable insights, this book offers an invaluable resource for those wanting to truly understand the evolution of the credit market and its wider impacts.

Credit Market Innovations: How Institutions, Technology, And Regulation Are Reshaping Global Lending

The Responsible Investment Series

Many leading investment institutions - including asset managers, pension funds, and insurance companies - have made commitments to sustainable investment or to the delivery of sustainability goals alongside their investment objectives.This mainstreaming of sustainable investment raises many important questions, such as:¿ Do sustainable finance strategies lead to meaningful real-world change? Are fears about greenwashing justified?¿ Does sustainable investment deliver better financial outcomes? And is it consistent with investors' fiduciary duties?¿ Can the sustainability data and ratings used in finance be trusted? Does sustainability information drive improved sustainability performance?¿ How should sustainable investment be governed? What are the roles and responsibilities of public and private actors.This book unpacks the key terms, concepts and debates - both theoretical and applied - that underpin sustainable investment. Through evidence-based analysis, it cuts through the hype to critically exploring sustainable finance's transformative potential as well as its limitations. In doing so, the book enables public policymakers, financial institutions, companies, civil society organisations and academics to engage in a more informed discussion about the contribution that sustainable investment can make to sustainability goals.

Key Debates in Sustainable Investment

The words teachers write on student work have the power to help students think critically and to hone and project their voices with confidence. They also have the power to shut students down. They may affect student identity, motivation, and improvement of writing skills. Research suggests that many of the types of comments teachers and other reviewers write on student papers are negative, nonsensical, unhelpful, and even potentially harmful, especially for first-generation, working-class, and otherwise disenfranchised students. This harm can be understood as a form of violence. Nonviolent Response, which is centered on tenets for nonviolent teaching practices, presents an approach to writing responses that help eliminate harmful affect and integrates efficient, carefully crafted, and clear guidance to writers. Rysdam and Torres offer evidence-based methods for effective, timesaving, motivational responses useful to teachers of writing and other responders or reviewers in professional and public contexts.
