Governance
Three groups govern and advise the charity.
Board of Trustees
The Board of Trustees has overall charity oversight.
Regular trustee meetings discuss strategic and operational matters. There are separate
boards of trustees in the US, UK, Australia, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, New Zealand, South Korea, and Switzerland. These boards meet with appropriate
frequency depending on the activities and needs of the charity.
Malaria Advisory Group
The Malaria Advisory Group advises on all malaria, net distributions
and related matters. It is made up many of the world's leading malaria experts who
have significant and extensive experience, and current knowledge, of malaria control.
They are consulted on, and must approve, each distribution.
Finance and Audit Committee
This group approves all expenditure. In addition, Citi, PwC and Crowe Clark Whitehill
handle banking, accounting and audit respectively. Detailed controls and double
signatory requirements are in place to ensure financial integrity.
Appropriate reporting procedures and governance policies guide the management and
governance of the charity.
Accounts and Audit
Annual accounts are prepared in the UK (global
consolidated accounts, audited) and are also prepared and filed in the US, Australia
(audited), Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Ireland, Germany, New Zealand, Sweden and Switzerland.
