# Advisory Council

Sierra's Advisory Council is responsible for applying the [Risk Framework](/building-with-sierra/risk-framework.md) to all [Available Yield Sources](/building-with-sierra/available-yield-sources.md) that can be allocated to by the [Reserve Management Strategy](/building-with-sierra/reserve-management-strategy.md) for each Vault or LVT issued by the Sierra Protocol.

The Advisory Council is comprised of:

* Supervisor of the Sierra Foundation
* Core Contributors at Sierra Protocol
* Senior Leadership at [OpenTrade](https://www.opentrade.io/)
* Investment professionals at [Five Sigma Finance](https://www.fivesigma.co.uk/)

In Q3 2026, we anticipate announcing several more members joining Sierra's Advisory Council, which bring unique experience in underwriting different asset classes as we expand the set of Available Yield Sources.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.sierra.money/building-with-sierra/advisory-council.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
