# 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.
