They usually have the finance committee research options or contract with a CPA firm/ or community foundation to handle that aspect.
Several factors drive an investment policy
1.) Operating/Capital Cash flow requirements – determines liquidity and ROI (return on investment) requirements
2.) Endowment size (if its too small diversification may not be possible or may be too expensive)
3.) Growth potential through gifts/stock donations, etc…
How much will you be adding to the endowment over time and at what interval?
4.) Risk toleration – self-explanatory
5.) Social/Advocacy Goals – are there mission-related investment goals or restrictions that will drive or limit the investment choices (i.e. non-smoking/alcohol/firearms, affordable housing, social ventures, environmental concerns, etc…)
Make sure to consult your legal counsel and CPA.
