Cambridge, FWIW, seems to be mostly individual colleges rather than the University itself. Given the size (and presumably diversity) of their endowment assets[0], I don't find this much of a surprise.

I'm guessing these are just the ones that got caught. I would be surprised if the London Universities e.g. Imperial, LSE would miss out on doing similar things with their funds.
