Mission

The mission of the College is to bring together lawyers who devote a substantial amount of their time representing institutional investors in connection with their investment operations, to provide education with respect to legal issues and market practices affecting institutional investments and investors, to develop, where appropriate, guidelines and uniform documentation for transactions involving institutional investments and to build collegial relationships to allow for more efficient transactions and communications among its Fellows.

The College has historically focused on investments in non-public debt and equity securities, in particular those which involve a significant degree of reliance upon the general credit of the issuer or cash flows from specific projects or asset pools. The College recognizes that the operations and investments of institutional investors are varied and evolving. Consequently, the College’s focus includes the evolving broader scope of institutional investments and the complex issues involved.
