  32. Financial Conclusions 2012 • In the financial year 2012, the Association continued with the consolidation of the financial status. • Services to members, delegates and partners and educational offerings to Renal field were maintained at a good level. • The Association continued to work on various projects and organised a successful 41st International Conference. • The Association published a Scientific Journal, a Newsletter and new pocket books for education of Renal healthcare workers.

  33. Financial Conclusions 2012 • The basic reserve required was maintained. • The Capital increased to 642.807 Swiss Francs (CHF). • The flexible assets are found in bank account and short term investment accounts. • Transfer and settlement accounts show fully explained and consolidated balances. • Accrued expenses and income are at normal levels, transactions accounted are fully transparent and explainable.

  34. Financial Conclusions 2012 • The result of the year 2012 shows a surplus of 176.192 CHF. • The main reason for this result is the cost conscious working in all areas, a continued interest in the International Conference by delegates and excellent support from industry partners. • The good results compensate a reduction in membership receipts, are positively influenced by lower conference expenses than forecasted and income from publications although receipts from advertisements for print publications are less successful then in past years.

The balances of Bank Accounts were found to be equal to assets booked. • All transactions are correctly booked and transparent. • Short term finance investments were balanced. The investment strategy ensures best security and flexibility regarding liquidity required.

  39. Financial Audit 2012 • I quote from the Report of the Auditors: “In our opinion the accounting records and financial statement comply with Swiss Law and the articles of the Association. We recommend that the financial statements submitted to you are approved”.

  40. Future • The process to safeguard the financial independence and viability of the Association remains a challenge for the near future, in a period of world-wide economical instability. • Cost containment, safe investment of reserves and support to the organisation of a successful conference are the main goals for the Finance Team also in 2013 and onwards. • EDTNA/ERCA strives to maintain the level of services on a high level, is investing in improving services and support to volunteers and will continue to support innovation in many aspects to support Renal care workers.
