Uniform Management of Institutional Funds Act Law and Legal Definition
Uniform Management of Institutional Funds Act is one of the uniform acts prepared and sponsored by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws in 1972.

(2) specific investment authority;
(3) authority to delegate investment decisions;
(4) a standard of business care and prudence to guide governing boards in the exercise of their duties under the Act; and
