Q&A with the Authors
Since the first edition of Creating a Private Foundation published in 2003, how has the foundation and charitable trust industry changed and evolved?
The past decade has been a difficult one in several important ways. The investment environment has been very challenging, making investment policy and cash management even more important than in some previous periods. Fraud has hit many charities and foundations, some with devastating consequences, reinforcing with a sledge-hammer the importance of due diligence. The concept of unintended consequences has been shown to apply to charitable giving, causing many donors for the first time to consider that their giving might do harm if not carefully considered. Donor-advised funds have grown in importance, and the regulations surrounding them have grown as well. Finally, one of the biggest changes is the development of a market for income interests in Charitable Remainder Trusts. Whereas previously CRT donors were pretty much stuck with such income interests for life, there is now liquidity, meaning that if a CRT donor's situation changes, he can turn his income stream into a lump sum of cash.
What will donors and advisors gain from reading this new edition?
In this book we address the impacts of all the above changes, among others. Many advisors tell us that they have not seen these issues dealt with elsewhere, or not as usefully.
What is the biggest or most important takeaway that you hope readers walk away with after finishing the book?
The size of the charitable sector continues to grow, and along with that opportunities and complexity also grow. We hope that our readers will take away a better understanding of what to do, what not to do, and when to call in expert help.
