# Funds

Once a Fund is set up, its Fiscal Host manages it from **Dashboard > Funds & Grants > Hosted Funds**. From here you can see every Fund your Fiscal Host currently hosts, create new ones, manage existing ones, and export their data.

## Hosted Funds

The Hosted Funds list shows every Fund under your host, with each one's team, fee, hosting start date, total raised, total disbursed, and current balance. Search for a specific Fund, filter by All, Hosted, Frozen, or Unhosted, and sort the list.

Click a Fund in the list to open its details. This opens a full-page profile with tabs for financial overview, money movements, agreements, updates, and more. The Overview tab includes balance and all-time totals, contribution and payout analytics, and recent transactions.

## Managing a Fund

The Fund's name, hosted-since date, current balance, and team members, plus a short list of its most recent transactions and activities. Use the "View Transactions" and "View Activities" buttons to see the full history beyond the few entries shown here.

### Settings

From this page, you can easily alter a few key settings for a Fund.

* **Fee Structure:** Use your Fiscal Host's default host fee, or set a custom fee for this Fund.
* **Expense Types:** Use your Fiscal Host's default expense-type settings, or manually choose whether this Fund allows Invoices, Reimbursements, or Grants.
* **Payout Method Details:** Control whether Fund admins can see payees' payout method details.

Fund admins can also download contribution receipts from **Dashboard > Settings > Payment Receipts**.

### More Actions

From a Fund's page, or from the three-dot menu next to it in the Hosted Funds list, you can:

## Create Funds

Fiscal Hosts can start a new Fund directly from the Hosted Funds page via the **Create Fund** button, in the top right: just a name, description, and profile URL.

## Exporting Fund Information

Click **Export CSV** in the top right of the Hosted Funds page to download data on your Funds. Use the default export, or configure your own across four field categories:

* **About:** e.g. Name, Status, Currency
* **Financials:** e.g. Balance, Total Spent (All Time), Average Yearly Received
* **Contributions:** e.g. Last Contribution Date, Total Refunded Value, Number of Contributions
* **Expenses:** e.g. First Expense Date, Distinct Payees, Max Expense Value

Save a custom set of fields as a reusable preset via the "Selected export set" dropdown → "New preset," and use **Export Sample** to download a small test file before running the full export.

## 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://documentation.opencollective.com/fiscal-hosts/funds-and-grants/funds.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.
