The capital is held by the non-profit association, which oversees all aspects of the Club’s activities and owns the estate.
Functioning
Life at Sainte-Anne depends on two entities: the company "Immobilière Château Sainte-Anne" and the non-profit association "Royal International Club Château Sainte-Anne".
Royal International Club Château Sainte-Anne
The Club is made up of Associate Members, who are invited to attend the General Assembly, and Full Members.
How does the General Assembly work?
The General Assembly is the sovereign authority of the Association. In particular, it approves the accounts for the previous financial year and the proposed budget for the coming financial year.
It elects the members of the Board of Directors for a three-year term. They may be re-elected once.

The Board of Directors is vested with the broadest powers to carry out all acts of administration or disposal relating to the Club. It entrusts the day-to-day management to a General Manager, supported by the Executive Committee.
