Frequently Asked Questions
Q What are the benefits of membership?
A This depends on your individual aspirations and your position of trust. NZTA is a charitable trust with the principal objective of benefiting trusteeship. Improvement of resources for trustees (and trusts) by NZTA increases individual knowledge, assisting trusts in their decision making. The Trustee News has received plaudits for filling a void in trustee resources, bringing all categories of trusteeship together.
Q Why should the Trust fund my individual membership?
A Again, this is dependent on your position of trust, your personal involvement with administration and your responsibilities and liability. It has been widely accepted and actioned for the Chair & other senior positions of administration to have their subscription funded. The logic continues that if there were no trustees or administrators there would certainly be no trust. Also, where the trustees & administrators increase their resources and knowledge the trust does benefit.
Q Why should the Firm fund my individual membership?
A For Professional Trustees & Trust Practitioners (Solicitors, Accountants, Fund Managers etc) funding of a member's subscription is by their employing firm or their own practise. This is fairly obviously for the increase in business the membership subscription will bring to the member's firm by the credentials and exposure NZTA provides.
Q I don't know what level I should apply for?
A Levels of membership subscription are contained in the page headed "Description of Levels of Subscription & Membership". You are given suggestions on funding and the level that may suit you in that text. Full membership is underlined.
