    A category is said to be alg-universal, if every category of universal algebras can be fully embedded into it. The author proves that the category of finitary endofunctors of the category \({\mathcal S}et\) is alg-universal. Also, he presents an example of a proper class of accessible set functors with no natural transformations between them (except the obvious identities).
