When reciprocity payments are made, where does the money go?

Reciprocity payments are deposited directly into regional, Indigenous-owned Trusts. From there, Reciprocity payments go to beneficiary Indigenous Nations, who have control over where they accept payments from and what priorities they go towards.

90% of every Reciprocity payment goes directly to the Nations, and 10% helps cover some of the administration, communications and outreach costs associated with building and growing reciprocity.trusts.
