IGEN TRUST 

the relief of unemployment for the benefit of the public in such ways as may be thought fit, including education, training and development; information, advice and guidance and practical assistance to find employment.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are only 4 trustees
  • The Board is completely male
  • The Board composition appears to be very static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
