Day-to-day operations of the Fund are managed by the executive committee, which consists of 16 current IESE MBA students. Given the annual turnover in the executive committee, the Fund also maintains an advisory board consisting of IESE faculty. Investment decisions are made by the investment committee, a group of six individuals drawn from the executive committee, advisory board, and outside independent members.
