Endorsement
The not for profit world is a large and growing segment of economic activity globally. As economies grow and wealth accumulates, the urge to make a lasting, intergenerational contribution to human welfare is a deep part of our nature.
Many enter this new world without a firm grasp of the financial structures that underpin the not for profit world. Into this gaps steps Biswajeet Chatterjee, with his new book Best Practices for a Global Not for Profit Organization. The book describes in clear and simple terms the fundamental accounting principles and regulatory requirements of the not for profit world. Best Practices for a Global Not for Profit Organization offers, in one place, in clear a simple language, a badly needed guide for all those new and established in this world. Not only does the book provide an outline of what is needed financially, it also provides a clear description how to navigate through the regulatory requirements that are often much different from those of the for profit world.
Biswajeet Chatterjee is uniquely qualified to write this text. He is currently the Chief Financial officer of ACCESS Health International, a not for profit organization which is active in Asia, South Asia, Europe, the Middle East and the Americas. He has written more than ten books on finance and accounting covering a wide range of topics including (International Finance Reporting Standards, Corporate Financial Reporting, Corporate Governance, risk management, financial analysis for decision making and Business Valuation, to name a few).
I am pleased to recommend Best Practices for a Global Not for Profit Organization enthusiastically and without reservation.
