🚨 Minor Incident $26.2M/yr

30.0% probability / year +$800K vs baseline

Single-region bus crash causing localized fatalities/injuries affecting Foundation staff; generates incident response, limited payouts and targeted cover ops.

single fatality or small multi-injury crash localized investigation & recovery

🚨 Major Incident $31.4M/yr

5.0% probability / year +$6.0M vs baseline

Large multi-fatality bus incident affecting multiple Foundation personnel, requiring heavy salvage, large benefits/funerals, major legal/cover operations and recruitment.

🚨 Political Exposure $35.4M/yr

📋 Confidence Notes

Many line items have wide ranges (especially political/lobbying and subsidy choices) and program design decisions (fleet vs subsidies, dorm build vs repurpose) materially alter costs. Operational costs (analytics/staffing) are better defined; political expenditures and incident rates remain uncertain.
