Belfast

Investing under a Trump presidency & navigating SORP changes

Join us for a roundtable hosted by Quilter Cheviot and Finegan Gibson, where we will explore two key themes currently shaping the charity sector: the investment implications of Donald Trump’s second presidency and the changes to the Charities SORP.

Since Donald Trump began his second US presidential term on 20 January 2025, market conditions have become increasingly uncertain. With rising trade tariffs, a shifting geopolitical landscape, and the seeming abandonment of the fight on climate change, we will examine what these developments could mean for the world economy and for charity investors.

SORP update:
Finegan Gibson’s Audit Manager, Courtney Mills, will outline the key changes in the revised Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP). This session will provide trustees with a clear overview of the implications and practical considerations arising from the updated standards.
