• Non-profit associations have become essential  stakeholders and need to comply with ever-changing requirements. The initial operating rules for these bodies have become considerably more complex and the running of associative projects is difficult to put in place in terms of tax, accounting and legal management. Their needs for financial information are becoming increasingly specific, while internal operating procedures are more and more restrictive when it comes to meeting the requirements of funders.

     

    Our tasks

    CDP Partners has developed a skills cluster that responds to the specific concerns of the directors of non-profit associations so that they can continue to devote themselves in full to their core business, in the best possible conditions and in compliance with the various regulations:

    • Financial, legal and tax support for the association,
    • Audit of the statutory accounts,
    • Audit of projects to be submitted to funders,
    • organisational audit
    • Implementation of internal procedures, including purchasing, to ensure they comply with Belgian or European tendering processes,
    • Agreed-upon procedures engagements,
    • etc.
