The School is supported by six private institutions: The Agbar Group, AXA Research Fund, Banc Sabadell, Catalunya Caixa Savings Bank, "la Caixa" Savings Bank, and the FemCAT Foundation. It also receives public funding from the Catalan Government and the Barcelona City Council.
The School was legally recognized by the Government of Catalonia in October 2006 as a foundation dedicated to higher education.
