Particularly committed to maintaining excellence, the Paris Brain Institute has put in place internal and external control procedures to ensure the rigour and effectiveness of its management: membership of the Committee on the Charter of Giving with Trust and the call for an independent auditor.
Our Control Procedures
Don en confiance
On November 3, 2010, the Paris Brain Institute received the approval of the Trust Giving Charter Committee, renewed in October 2022. For more than 20 years, this committee has been responsible for professional regulation of the appeal to public generosity. Its action is based on three commitments: recognised organisations must respect ethical rules, they must abide by collective discipline vis-à-vis donors, and they must accept continuous monitoring of the commitments entered into.
Report of the External Auditor
The Paris Brain Institute employs an independent auditor, KPMG, who annually audits and certifies the accounts of the Brain Institute. Find the full report of the 2022 audit on the dedicated space.
Financial situation 2022
