Conflicts and compensation
The organisation, its directors and its researchers hold no inventory, brokerage interest, commission arrangement or advisory relationship in any artist, estate, dealer or asset class under examination. Personal holdings are disclosed to the Board and trigger recusal from the related work.
All compensation, including that of founders and principal researchers, is approved by disinterested directors against external benchmarking and recorded in the minutes, with the interested party absent from the vote. Finances and funders are reported annually.
