PUBLICATIONS

The role and responsibilities of the Honorary Treasurer are crucial to their charities and these publications may offer some insight and information to assist their work.

Cover The Honorary Treasurers Handbook
The Honorary Treasurers Handbook

by Kate, Sayer, Judith Miller and Arlene Clapham from Sayer Vincent LLP and edited by Denise Fellows

The handbook offers essential advice, information and support for Charity Treasurers in all aspects of their role. There are many guides to charity finance but Treasurers need not only accounting knowledge but also the skill and competency to work well with others and to ensure that other trustees are enabled to fulfil their own responsibilities for finance. This handbook is particularly helpful with the ‘softer’ aspects of the role.

Published with the generous support of the Worshipful Company of Management Consultants.

Reclassification of charities by investment fund managers

The requirements of the Retail Distribution Review (RDR) under the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) came into force at the start of 2013 and have had an interesting knock-on effect on charity investments. Investment management firms have reclassified charities whose portfolios they manage as ‘professional’ or ‘retail’. You may be uncertain as to how these changes affect your charity. Professor Paul Palmer Trustee of HTF and Professor of Voluntary Sector Management at Cass Business School has published an article about the impact of the changes which can be viewed on our website: http://www.honorarytreasurers.org.uk/docs/PalmerandButterworth.pdf

Or you can listen or watch an interview between our CEO Denise Fellows and Paul Palmer. Available to listen (mp3), read (pdf) or as a video presentation video presentation to watch.
