Why This Matters

Boards don’t need to become finance experts.
But they do need to ask the right questions — or small risks slip through.
 
A strong oversight framework helps your board:
  • catch issues earlier
  • stay compliant
  • make budgeting easier
  • avoid surprises at year-end
If your board skips even one of these questions, you may be missing something important.
