Not-for-profit reserves — What's the right amount for my organization?

 

 

 

Event Description 

 

Over the past years, not-for-profit organizations have experienced significant shifts and tumult in their operating environments. COVID-19 lockdowns, federal legislation and funding  programs, performance of financial markets, the war for talent, and inflation, among many other factors, have influenced how not-for-profit organizations operate, allocate resources, plan, and pursue mission objectives. Generic rules of thumb would say that six months of operating expenses is the "right" amount of reserves for a nonprofit; however, this guidance has various limitations and has been of disservice to nonprofits for many years.  

 

Join us for an interactive discussion regarding the importance and benefits of a more thoughtful and detailed reserves planning approach, key considerations when formulating a reserves policy, reserves planning's intersection with long-range financial planning, and the importance of messaging your approach to organizational stakeholders.
