In establishing the Fund, the Charity Commission is able to provide a legal vehicle for depositing charities. However, the Charity Commission does not promote the Fund as a suitable or safe deposit-taking scheme for charities generally, nor does the Charity Commission suggest that the Fund is risk free.
HSBC Bank plc is the Corporate Trustee and Epworth has been appointed as Manager of the Funds.
