Chinese Funding to UK Art Industry

The request was successful.

Dear National Museum Wales,

1. Please tell me the total amount of annual funding (including sponsorship, donations, gifts and other forms of financial support) from Chinese entities to the National Museum of Wales in 2019, 2020 and 2021.

2. Please provide a breakdown for each donation (at minimum: entity giving the donation; ultimate beneficial owner of the entity; year of donation; amount of donation; purpose of donation).

3. Please also specify the percentage of total corporate sponsorship.

Making this information publicly available will enable the public to understand how much Chinese funding is going into the UK’s art industry.

Yours faithfully,
Jessica Ní Mhainín

Dear Jessica,

We can confirm, after reviewed financial records for 2019, 2020, and 2021, that zero income/funding was received from any Chinese entities during that time.

We hope this is helpful,

Kind regards,

FOI Team,
