Dear Christopher Stanley,

KAUST IMC

Thuwal, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (March 18, 2009) - After an extensive international search among top investment management firms and financial institutions, His Excellency Ali Ibrahim Al-Naimi, Chairman of King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) Board of Trustees, KAUST Investment Management Company (KAUST IMC) Board of Directors, and Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources of Saudi Arabia, announced today that Dr. Gumersindo Oliveros has been appointed as the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer of KAUST IMC.




KAUST IMC, a wholly owned subsidiary of KAUST, is responsible for the investment strategy of the University's endowment fund. It is governed by an independent Board of Directors, made up of some of the most accomplished and respected leaders in the global investment community. The move is an important milestone in KAUST's development, bringing the University another step closer to full-fledged operations when it opens its main campus in Thuwal, Saudi Arabia, in September 2009. The endowment is essential to support KAUST's core mission: to enable advances in science and technology that positively transform the lives of people in Saudi Arabia, the region and the world.



Since 2002, Dr. Oliveros, 53, has served as the Director of the Pension Plan and Endowments at the World Bank in Washington, D.C. He has 18 years of experience in capital markets and investing and is a member of the World Bank Treasury management team that manages more than $70 billion worth of assets for the World Bank and external clients. His direct responsibilities have included managing more than $14 billion across a spectrum of asset classes and providing advice to central banks, pension plans, and other official institutions on multi-asset class management. Before heading the pension plan, Dr. Oliveros, a native of Spain, was in charge of the World Bank's Capital Markets and Financial Engineering Department. He had previously taught macroeconomics and international trade at the University of Minnesota, where he obtained his master's and Ph.D. in Economics. He also worked for eight years at the International Monetary Fund, where he specialized in macroeconomic adjustment programs in Latin America, Africa and Asia, and on Fund conditionality.



"I really believe that he is an outstanding candidate to lead the KAUST Endowment," His Excellency Minister Al-Naimi, Chairman of KAUST's Board of Trustees, said. "Dr. Oliveros would bring to this position extraordinary talent and expertise that will ensure the successful management of the endowment," he added.



Jack Brennan, Chairman of the Vanguard Group in the United States and a member of the KAUST IMC Board of Directors, praised the appointment. "I believe that Dr. Oliveros will bring a wealth of talent and experience to the KAUST endowment that will enable him to guide the investment strategy successfully," Brennan said.

Answering Macine Message (apocryphal)

This is the message that the Maroochydore High School Queensland , staff voted unanimously to record on their school telephone answering machine . This is the actual answering machine message for the school. This came about because they implemented a policy requiring students and parents to be responsible for their children’s absences and missing homework. The school and teachers are being sued by parents who want their children’s failing grades changed to passing grades – even though those children were absent 15-30 times during the semester and did not complete enough school work to pass their classes, and put this on the answerphone.

The outgoing message:

Hello! You have reached the automated answering service of your school. In order to assist you in connecting to the right staff member, please listen to all the options before making a selection:

To lie about why your child is absent – Press 1
To make excuses for why your child did not do his work – Press 2
To complain about what we do – Press 3
To swear at staff members – Press 4
To ask why you didn’t get information that was already enclosed in your
newsletter and several flyers mailed to you – Press 5
If you want us to raise your child – Press 6
If you want to reach out and touch, slap or hit someone – Press 7
To request another teacher, for the third time this year – Press 8
To complain about bus transportation – Press 9
To complain about school lunches – Press 0
If you realize this is the real world and your child must be accountable
and responsible for his/her own behaviour, class work, homework and that
it’s not the teachers’ fault for your child’s lack of effort: Hang up and
have a nice day!
If you want this in another language, move to a country that speaks it.
