	Financial endowment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A financial endowment is a transfer of money or property donated to an institution, with the stipulation that it be invested, and the principal remain intact.
		At universities, typically 5% of the endowment's assets are spent every year, with any excess earnings reinvested to augment the endowment and to compensate for inflation and recessions in future years.
		A constantly growing endowment shields universities from competitive forces – As the endowment’s reinvestment starts becoming a larger part of its growth, the need for happy students and alumni to donate funds to the university’s budget and endowment are reduced.

		Endowment managers have put in some long days this year--hours spent investigating new investment opportunities to offset heavy losses resulting from overreliance on stock and bond markets during the past few years.

	Interest Only: Endowment
		Endowment mortgages do not any longer have any tax benefits, till recently it was the most common type of interest only mortgage, which also provides life assurance so that in the event of death the mortgage is paid off in full.
		The two major disadvantages of endowment mortgages are the fact that it is very likely that the endowment policy will not grow enough to produce a substantial profit over and above the amount of the loan, which therefore means it could become more expensive than a repayment mortgage.
		This consists of an interest only mortgage linked to an Endowment savings plan, if the endowment policy increases at a sufficient rate then it is expected that the policy will generate enough capital to pay off the loan at the end of the mortgage term, however this is not always the case.
