Annual Accounts & Charities Commission Compliance

We have years of experience in helping charities pass audits and would love to help your non-profit organisation or charity too.

In New Zealand, all registered charities are required to file an annual return with Charities Services within six months of their balance date (financial year end). W:

1. Preparing Financial Statements or Performance Reports:

             Tiers 1 and 2: Prepare financial statements in line with the reporting standards.

              Tiers 3 and 4: Prepare a performance report according to the relevant standards.

2. Completing the Annual Return Form:

              We ensure the details are kept up to date for the charity’s account on the Charities Services website.

Filing the annual return is crucial for maintaining your charity’s registration status. Failure to do so can result in deregistration.

"I have had regular monthly coaching with Michelle for two years, I found Michelle kind and thoughtful, also analytical. It is helpful each session to review the numbers, budgeting and discuss forecasting with the different events that are occurring in the trust regularly. Each meeting our discussions resulted in myself as CEO to understand the numbers more and receive helpful tips towards improving our financial reporting to make them more readable and understandable to the board."
