As stewards of the public trust, all staff and trustees are expected to ensure that the Rockefeller Foundation complies with the highest standards of financial accounting and reporting, and engages in lawful and ethical behavior. This policy is intended to remind staff and trustees of this expectation, to encourage reporting to management concerns about possible violations, and to lay out procedures for reporting and investigating complaints and the protections afforded under this policy.
The Board of Trustees has authorized the General Counsel to administer this policy, under the oversight of the Foundation’s Audit Committee.
