The increased internationalization and competition for philanthropic funding is prompting governments to examine how their policy, tax and regulatory frameworks can create stronger incentives for giving and can retain philanthropic capital 'at home', while ensuring appropriate accountability and transparency.

One consequence of the crisis has been to accentuate existing pressures for professionalization of philanthropic management and for greater performance measurement: what impact does philanthropy have? How can it be managed more effectively to produce sustainable, scalable public benefits?
