GRF · About GRF

Funding and accounts

Who funds The Global Risks Forum (GRF), what the money is for and how it is accounted for, published here once each item has a dated record and, for a named supporter, written permission to name it. No funder, amount or statement of accounts is published yet, so this page shows none. The rules that keep funding apart from findings are already in force and set out below.

02What will be published

Four records, each with its date.

Accounts

03Rules in force

Funding buys no control.

  • Sponsors cannot approve publications, change evidence, choose participants or set dialogue questions and council agendas.
  • Each contribution funds a defined public-good capability under a written agreement, which is designed to include a report on the use of resources.
  • A sponsor is named only with written permission and a current record.
  • The full rules: sponsorship policies and independence; the yearly account: annual reviews.
