Housing Associations face significant financial challenges as a result of which it is now more important than ever that everyone involved in the governance, management and operations of housing associations has a working knowledge of housing association finance.
These seminars provide a solid grounding in the basics of housing association finance including:
The financial environment in which housing associations work
Regulatory requirements including Viability and Value for Money
Income & Expenditure Accounts, Balance Sheets and Cash Flows
How Development and other Capital Expenditure is financed
Budgeting, Budgetary Control and Risk Management
Asset Management and Treasury Management
Developments in government policy including ‘right to buy’, rent reductions, pay to stay and welfare reform
The implications of the Housing & Planning Bill – including low cost home-ownership
The future funding of sheltered housing and community investment
Housing associations are being innovative in their response with many developing new sources of income including increased service charges and having ambitious new build and regeneration schemes.
Do you think that a working knowledge of housing association finance gained at our interactive seminar and workshop would put you in a position of advantage? If so, whether you are a Housing Manager, Board Member, Tenant Representative or even a member of the Finance Team; whether you are in a housing association or in a council that has partnerships with housing associations you should attend one of our seminars.
Delegates will gain an overview of the finances of housing associations and will keep up to date with developments in housing association finance. There will be opportunities for networking. The session is also accompanied by a very useful book that is designed for reference after the session entitled: “All You Want to Know about Housing Association Finance 2016”
