Methods and systems for facilitating donor-directed asset management are
provided. In one embodiment, a program agreement may be established
between a donor and a donee and an asset may be donated from the donor to
the donee. The program agreement may specify, among other things, a
period of time for investing the asset. The donor may invest the asset
after donating it to the donee according to the terms of the program
agreement. The investment of the asset may be monitored by an
administrator to help ensure compliance with the program agreement. When
the period for investing expires, the donor may relinquish investment
control, and the asset and any proceeds realized by its investment may be
transferred to the donee.
