      Resolutions

      Ordinary Resolution 1

      To consider and approve the profit and loss accounts and balance sheet and the reports of the Board and the Auditors for the year ending 31st December 2022

      The first resolution seeks to approve the Association’s year end accounts for December 2022 and the Auditors’ report for the same year. Full details of both can be found in the AGM brochure.

      Ordinary Resolution 2

      To receive the budget and approve the subscriptions for Members and Patrons, for the year ending 31st December 2024

      The second resolution proposes an increase in membership fees for 2024. Membership fees will increase starting on 1st January 2024, by £3.75 per month for each firm and by £1.25 for each Registered Individual (RI). This will bring the single Member firm fee to £68.75 per month, with each additional RI fee rising to £23.75 per month for most firms. RI fees for the very largest firms, those with more than 50 RIs, will increase to £18.75 per month. These small increases are necessary to cover rising staff and supplier costs, but the trade body aims to minimise the impact on Members and ensure that fees continue to offer good value. Lender Patron fees will also increase in January 2024, from £6,000 to £6,300 per annum, representing a 5% uplift in line with inflation levels.

      Ordinary Resolution 3

      To appoint Auditors UHY Hacker Young as auditors for the financial year ending 31st December 2023

      The NACFB Board proposes the reappointment of auditors UHY Hacker Young for the year ending 31st December 2023. The team at UHY Hacker Young has audited the NACFB for the last seven years and has a good understanding of our Association. UHY Hacker Young is also keen to continue its working relationship with the NACFB.

      All resolutions passed by majority vote 14th December 2023.
