I’m a Nonprofit Board Member – What’s up with all this jargon?
Communication can be a funny thing – each group has its own special terminology and shorthand that can prove frustrating until you “speak the language.”
Our Language of Nonprofit Fiduciaries© is a great tool and will get you speaking Fiduciary in no time! It will take you from this,
to THIS!
Nonprofit Word of the Day: FQMS
FQMS stands for the Fiduciary Quality Management System.
That’s a mouthful – and it’s something pretty important you should know about. (It’s also four words, so you get a bonus this time!)
The Fiduciary Quality Management System (FQMS)
From: www.fi360.com
The Fiduciary Quality Management System (FQMS) is a framework for addressing fiduciary responsibilities in the investment process. Developed by CEFEX, it is modeled after the International Standards Organization (ISO) 9000 Standard for Quality Management Systems which stresses a process-driven approach and the concept of continual improvement. Four major steps comprise the FQMS: Organize, Formalize, Implement and Monitor.
Understanding and implementing this System is extremely valuable and puts you directly on the path to Fiduciary Excellence.
