I've reviewed the documents for 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020 to investigate changes in reporting from "Money Moved" to "Funds Raised/Funds Directed".

From what I can tell, it looks like "Funds Directed" is a good proxy for Money Moved.

From the 2022 report:

I'm resolving to 425,224,570, the "funds directed to charities" number, because the 2020 document states that they do not count funding their own operations as "money moved":

We do not count funds we use for our operating costs in our money moved but hare a breakdown of them to give more context on the overall level of funds supporting GiveWell and our research.

@Eliza Feel free to kick and scream about this but any minor differences of 10-20 million either way will have made only a very small impact on your payout. I think this is a reasonable result.

@NathanpmYoung please resolve. https://files.givewell.org/files/GiveWell_Metrics_Report_2022.pdf

@NathanpmYoung this looks to be around 420 million, per their airtable for all grants.
