For Index comparison, we were 14.5% net vs. 11.9% for the Russell 2000 Value.
That's 20 year annualized returns.

That sounds really interesting.
I see what you mean about the risk adjusted returns. I worked in investments for a while and I am always more interested in hearing beta risk adjusted return because it helps our doversification analysis more. I don't really care much about tracking error, that's more of an issue for the board. I love those returns I they are pretty low beta.

You sound like you know the institutional side of the business a bit. So what are you doing now?
Yea, the numbers are good. I'll admit we got hit in the sub-primes or the numbers would be a lot better. New Century and Fremont General were significant holdings at one time. We made a mistake and paid. But usually we make enough good decisions to over come something like that.

I interned for a public pension fund while I was in MBA school. I am about to start working in commercial lending for a while, the reevaluate after a year or two.

I've worked with a few public pension funds over the years. It's a great opportunity for a MBA student to get exposure to the institutional side. You're a lucky guy.
On the institutional investment side, I love the "buy" side as oppose to the "dark side" (sell side). And I'll take foundations and endowments over public and taft hartley funds. High networth guys can be a bit frustrating and unpredictable. So in our business I've worked with a number of universities. It's fun getting to see various universities and get insights from the administrators. Over the years some of the universities I've worked with are Tenn, A&M, Kansas and Michigan. Sort of fun, just be a polite Duck fan and take a little ribbing here and there and give a little back occasionally.
Commercial lending? We'll someone needs to get out there and start lending money....
We're seeing a pretty good pace in M&A activity as the big corporations with all the cash go out and gobble up some of the small guys.
