When an industry experiences fundamental changes as the financial industry abruptly did in 2008 it effected a broad number of industries including nonprofits endowments and financing. 

  • Donor Advisor Funds
  • Charitable Trusts
  • Foundations
  • Nonprofit Bonds
  • Family Trusts
  • Credit Swaps
  • Credit Markets

Possible Tools for Changes

  • Web
  • Evidence base practices
  • Online reporting of performance
  • Recognition of the need of an economic mix for investing including with nonprofits
  • Recognition of mission and vision and ownership of the investment
  • More Non Governmental Organizations (NGO’s) approaches to resolution of a problem
