Per my original comment, I agree that the EV decision (driven by legal considerations) obviously impacted GWWC strategy and day-to-day operations.
“Management” ultimately flows up to the board (and then EV recruited an Exec team to handle entity-wide decisions and processes for EV UK and EV US).
In a fiscal sponsorship scenario the fiscal sponsees actions can affect one another so it isn’t simply the case that an individual project can/should only think of their own risk appetite. During a crisis period I can understand the fiscal sponsor management not having the capacity to review all communications/decisions and therefore temporarily having blanket rules that sometimes may turn out to not have been necessary or nuanced enough after the fact.
In the comment you linked to Rebecca said that the Interim CEOs are responsible for “charity-wide issues, including legal response, coordination, and org structures, etc (that is, things that span multiple projects: 80k, CEA, GWWC, etc)” and prior to them being hired that fell to the board. This decision was part of the legal response/coordination and not a decision for project leads to make.
