The pattern is visible in public filings. When governance risk rises, it usually shows up in a few places at once: financial statements, officer compensation, and authority concentration in the governing record. ArtMetrics Foundation turns those signals into a public ranking.
Funders and nonprofit leaders do not see the same thing by default. The 990 shows the financials. State filings often show who actually controls authority. The combination is more useful than either source alone.
Governance data is meant for context, not punishment. The goal is to secure your foundation so you can contextualize your ledger and safely showcase your true impact.
