Strategy

At Evans and Partners, we work with you to ensure your philanthropic strategy is tailored to you and your family or your charitable organisation. This process involves addressing the following key points:

  • an appropriate investment strategy and governance policy is in place
  • recommendations are consistent with any existing investment policy
  • there is a strategic review of cash flows, existing portfolio construction and asset allocation.

Community and charitable organisations

Consideration is given to activities that need to be funded and the timing of the funding.

Families

Consideration is given to the preferred level of involvement of family members, how much each family member wants to give and the type of organisation the family wants to support.

How do we work with you?

Before we propose a solution, we begin by spending time understanding your organisation’s objectives, investment and income requirements and tolerance for risk.
