# kaal:position:2026-07-31-7818

**Affirmed position.** Charitable Accountability and Social Norms presents the following source proposition: Directors and officers of charities are fiduciaries to their organization. This proposition is pertinent to Kaal's source-bound claim that Because of the political climate and concern about the social externalities of business failure, monitoring requirements and their enforcement procedures are likely to become more severe regardless of whether the increased monitoring costs are offset by fewer bad business decisions. The proposed response is an extension: the relationship should remain limited to the retrieved source proposition and the mapped Kaal claim unless fuller source review supports a broader conclusion.
