Governance

Institutional discipline from day one.

How decisions are prepared, taken and checked, and the standards the platform holds itself to.

01Structure

Who prepares, who decides, who advises.

Four bodies with separate roles, so that preparing an investment and deciding on it are not in the same hands.

01 · Prepares

Fund management

Separation

Does not take the decision on its own proposals.

02 · Supports

External advisors

Legal, tax and technical expertise, brought in where specialist knowledge is needed.

Separation

Supports the review; does not decide.

03 · Decides

Investment Committee

Takes the investment decision on the basis of the preceding review.

Separation

Separate from the parties that prepared the proposal.

04 · Advises

Advisory Board

The same separation for every project.

02Oversight

Where public money meets private capital.

How the figures are reported, who may take part, and how anything is bought.

Audit & reporting

Who audits the figures?

Reporting follows recognised institutional standards, and progress and the use of funds are reported on independently.

What is reported

  • Financial results
  • Progress against milestones
  • Use of funds

How

  • Recognised institutional standards
  • Independent reporting
  • Use-of-funds control

Participation

Who may take part?

Every project is reviewed before capital is committed, as a condition of taking part rather than a check afterwards.

Checked before any commitment

  • Ownership structures
  • Legal and compliance
  • Procurement
  • Use-of-funds requirements

Outcome

  • A documented risk and integrity assessment for the Investment Committee

Procurement

How is anything bought?

Public money carries public obligations: purchases follow controlled processes, and every choice of supplier is documented.

How

  • Controlled processes
  • Documented supplier selection

When it is checked

  • In the review before investment
  • Through monitoring during delivery

04FAQ

Questions about governance.

How decisions are taken and how the use of funds is followed.

  • The Investment Committee takes the investment decision, on the basis of the review prepared by fund management.
