The actual gift, which is known as the corpus is NOT spent, but rather a portion of the investment returns is spent as determined by a spending policy. – The CU/CUF endowment consists of approximately 1700 individual funds with various purposes and restrictions. Expendable gifts – Gifts given for immediate use 3

The administrative management fee is utilized in securing, raising, investing and administering endowment funds in accordance with policies and procedures of CUF in effect at the time. – The fee for the current fiscal year is 1.25%. Effective FY15 fee is assessed on the three year average market value of the endowment. Gifts to expendable/operating funds are assessed a 5% reinvestment fee at the time of the gift. The reinvestment fee is to help support Clemson’s efforts to increase overall private giving. – Gifts to annual scholarships, grants-in-aid, student awards and fellowships are excluded from the reinvestment fee. 15
