THE WINCOTT FOUNDATION

The Foundation seeks to improve excellence in financial journalism through annual awards and research grants. It also holds an annual memorial lecture usually delivered by a leading economist.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending is declining
