Last but not the least am sure if we have come to this point there are suggestions and plans coming from ICANN. Can i humbly request that we be privy to the documents? prepared in draft or whatever means they are in?

Sorry i also have the background of chairing and looking at finance strategies and also Board audit committees. Have we looked up on Risks and have we looked up on projects that works and bring the necessary to ICANN.

So we should be looking at all these in a very strategic way. One is re-evaluate and look at the ICANN strategy and projects and then you start looking at SO/AC and houses/constituencies. Project based budgets, and win/gain strategies.

>> Brief background on Reserve Funds:
>> When initially established, the ICANN Reserve Fund is targeted to cover 12 month of ICANN operational expenses due to ICANN's risk profile, unexpected expenses and changing environmental factors of a particular FY. The Reserve fund is governed by ICANN's Investment Policy <https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/investment-policy-2017-09-18-en> and normally used to address expenses relating to possible and potential consequential events:
>> 
>> - Replenishing operating expenses due to unbudgeted events, payment of liabilities and maintenance/replacement of assets
>> 
>> - Downsizing or restructuring of ICANN's operations
>> 
>> - Mitigation of security and stability threats and attacks
>> 
>> - Unplanned legal costs, unforeseen external events and operations after disaster
>> 
>> - New and major programs resulting from a new strategic plan
>>
