How we classify it
Not counted as a concentrated manager: it is a foundation or endowment; what it reports is usually donated stock or the direct slice of a portfolio run by others. Its portfolio is shown all the same, but it is left out of manager counts, the consensus and the ranking. How this is decided
Managers of a similar size
A 13F portfolio value between a third and three times this one, whatever the type of filer. It is not a comparison of what they hold.
