“Finance and Compliance Manager in the US worked with U.S. tax counsel to complete this Form 990. Other employees of HSDF reviewed this form before it was filed.”

“The Organization has a Risk and Compliance Unit which is responsible for ensuring compliance with the conflict of interest policy. All Board of Trustee Members, Directors, Key Management Staff and Officers of the Organization are required to complete an Annual Conflict of Interest Declaration form and update the same as soon as a situtation arises that conflicts with their duties and responsibilities as officers of the Organization. The completed form is reviewed by the Risk and Compliance Unit and list of all companies where key officers and employees have interest are placed on a restrictive list. This is to ensure that business transactions with such companies are conducted at arms length, are cempetitive and due process will be followed to avoid bias in awarding contracts or business transactions with such companies. Where a material conflict is perceived, such companies, officers or employees are excluded from the bidding process and from taking decisions on the award of the project. The restricted list is updated on an annual basis at the same time as the annual conflict of interest declaration forms are being submitted.”

“The Organization has a Board Finance and Audit Committee that has the responsibility of determining the compensation of the CEO, directors and top management. The committee is made up of three Board of Trustee Members. Fixing the compensation of the CEO and key officers is done on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee to the Board after taking into consideration the approved amount by the donor organization, benchmark of compensation from similar organizations, and the skill set of the individual being engaged. The recommended compensation is then presented in a Board meeting for approval of the Board of Trustees.”

“A similar process is taken for fixing the compensation of other officers and employees of the organization. Senior management considers the compensation payable to an officer based on the required skill set and experience of the officer. Each grade level has a compensation band which is submitted to the orgsnization's compensation committee for review and then presented to the Board for approval. The approved compensation band is then used by Senior Management as a guide when fixing the compensation of a new hire.”

“The organization makes available the governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements to the public during the tax year upon request by any interested party.”

This grant aims to support HSDF in its efforts to rebuild and reposition as a trusted partner, not just to BMGF, but to other stakeholders. Across Africa, there has been remarkable progress in building capacity across a multitude of sectors in both private and public institutions. The commitment to the Agenda 2063 is Africa's blueprint and master plan for transforming Africa into the global powerhouse of the future. Agenda 2063 speaks to the need for Africa to continue to make sustained and impactful investments to drive economic and social transformation across the continent. One of the national and regional priorities is clearly called out as Good governance including capable institutions. In April 2021, HSDF was awarded a business development grant with a focus on developing to provide support as technical advisors to governments and other stakeholders. Specifically, HSDF was targeted for its analytical and Health System Strengthening HSS capacity. This aligns with HSDF's strategic priorities for strengthening its capacity to provide thought leadership in the health and social sectors built on a strong foundation of solid stakeholder partnerships, data analytics and evidence-informed decision making.
