It’s Time For An Assessment Of Your Nonprofit’s Finance Operations

---

​With cybersecurity concerns, the advent of remote working and the increased risk of fraudulent activity, an independent assessment of your nonprofit’s finance operations is essential. Perhaps your staff is too busy with day-to-day tasks and deadlines to review and evaluate your procedures. They may find it easier to continue doing things the way they have always been doing them.

Why Your Nonprofit Needs an Independent Assessment

• To document your operating procedures and identify inefficiencies and lack of internal controls
• To provide an impartial evaluation that reviews your procedures critically
• The Management Letter you received from your external auditors cited weaknesses in your internal controls that you need assistance in correcting
• Team members might be reluctant to disclose to their supervisors the challenges they face in performing their daily functions
