Governance You Can Trust
Governance Framework
Ethical Leadership Structure
Our governance is anchored by an independent board that sets vision, approves strategy, and ensures HGA upholds its mission of «Together for a better world». Clear mandates, rotating terms, and conflict‑of‑interest rules guarantee ethical, forward‑looking leadership.
Oversight & Accountability
Robust internal controls track every proposal, contract, and payment. Real‑time dashboards and quarterly reviews provide full visibility to advisors, clients, and consultants, creating a culture where transparency and accountability drive continuous improvement.
Risk Management Policy
A proactive risk framework identifies, assesses, and mitigates threats ranging from data breaches to market volatility. Scenario planning, insurance coverage, and rapid‑response protocols protect project timelines, client data, and consultant wellbeing.

Governance Pillars
Led by the Executive Director, this cross‑functional team translates board policy into daily action, overseeing operations, technology, finance, and impact delivery with agile, data‑driven management.
Data powers our matching engine, so safeguarding it is vital. The Data Ethics office sets rules for collection, storage, and use aligned with GDPR, World Bank cyber standards, and UN Digital Principles. Algorithms face quarterly bias tests; issues trigger fixes. Consultants can request a data dossier or have records deleted within 30 days. We also publish anonymized impact metrics, proving privacy and transparency can coexist.
The Board of Advisors unites veterans of multilateral finance, technology, and social impact. Meeting bi‑annually, it reviews strategy, budgets, and impact KPIs. Members hold staggered three‑year terms to blend continuity with fresh insight, and all minutes are shared on our intranet for transparency. A nominations panel steers succession, skills diversity, and gender balance so the board mirrors the global community we serve.
The Risk Committee meets quarterly to map emerging threats, assign mitigation owners, and monitor early‑warning indicators. It maintains a live risk register, updated weekly, ensuring rapid interventions before issues escalate and affect project delivery.
Surveys, town halls, and a 24/7 portal let clients, consultants, and communities shape policy, raise concerns, and co‑create solutions with HGA.
Audit Desk
Our internal Audit Desk performs continuous compliance checks across procurement, data security, and financial reporting. Findings are shared with the board’s audit chair and, where relevant, disclosed to clients to maintain trust and fiduciary integrity.
