THE BRITISH FRIENDS OF HARVARD BUSINESS SCHOOL 

Raising scholarship funds for Fulbright tuition scholarships to Harvard Business School; promote the education of persons studying at HBS.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

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

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Over half the Board have joined recently

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 has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
