Sure, laws differ from country to country...
In holland a 'stichting' (foundation) has 'bestuursleden' (governing
board members), who are taken in the 'stichtingsakte' (foundation
certificate) or 'akte van bestuur' (certificate of governing board)
Below the 'statuten' (statutes)these members are written along with
their function, and are 'hoofdelijk aansprakelijk' (severally
responsible) for the acts of the 'stichting'. They choose a 'voorzitter'
(president), and a 'penningmeester' (treasurer), from their midst. All
others are 'bestuursleden' (governing board members), and 'bestuurleden'
(governing board members)only.
