The executive board of 12 members leads decision-making in the KY Foundation. The board consists of both, student and advisory members. The advisory members are top professionals in their fields of asset and real estate management and help ensure that the Foundation’s assets are managed in the best possible way. To ensure the Foundation keeps the students’ best interest at heart, the Board is overseen by the Supervisory Council which is made up of KY Association’s representative council members. The Supervisory Council elects the members of the foundation board and elects the chair as well as the auditor annually.

The Foundation also employs a Managing Director Arttu Lääkkölä, who oversees the day-to-day operations.
