We're driven to responsibly manage Idaho's endowment lands for lasting returns to public schools and other beneficiaries, and to help Idahoans use and sustain their natural resources.
Investments & Asset Management
On May 17, 2016, the State Board of Land Commissioners voted unanimously to consider strategic acquisitions of timberland and, on a more limited basis, farmland, with proceeds from the sale of residential cottage sites and commercial properties.
At this time the Land Board also voted to approve the Investment Policy Statement and the updated Asset Management Plan. These documents lay the foundation for the recommendation in the Strategic Reinvestment Plan.
IDL uses these documents to guide the investment recommendations it makes to the Land Board.
