Cooperation between the Management Board and the Board of Trustees

The division of responsibilities between the Management Board and the Board of Trustees is based on the model of a public limited company: the Management Board manages the foundation's business, while the Board of Trustees advises and monitors it. The joint Foundation Committee, which is made up of the Board of Trustees and the Management Board, deals with fundamental issues relating to the Foundation's strategic direction.
