2.4 Governance Separation Principle ​

NMF operates under a separation-of-functions model:

  • Executive leadership defines strategic direction.
  • Validators oversee scientific verification and challenge certification.
  • Advisory members provide independent domain insight.
  • Legal and compliance officers enforce regulatory and licensing standards.
  • Treasury functions remain structurally separated from review authority.

This separation is designed to preserve institutional integrity, reduce concentration risk, and maintain long-term credibility.
