Your Nonprofit is Robust
Your organization is managing day-to-day finances effectively with ample emergency funds. Financial resources are likely allocated based on time horizon, liquidity and risk to ensure the organization’s initiatives are appropriately funded. Policies to establish investment and liquidity guidelines need to be developed, validated and/or updated.
