The General Assembly of the Finnish Dutch Chamber of Commerce is seeking candidates from among our members to serve on the Financial Committee, as required under Article 13 of our Articles of Association.
The Financial Committee is an independent body of at least two members, appointed annually by the General Assembly, and cannot include members of the Board. Its role is to examine the Board’s financial statements — including the written balance sheet and statement of income and expenses — and report its findings to the General Assembly.
As a Financial Committee member, you will:
• Review and assess the Association’s annual financial documents, explanations, and policies.
• Present your findings and recommendations to the General Assembly.
• Help ensure transparency, accountability, and sound financial management.
The Board is obligated to cooperate fully with the Financial Committee, providing access to all necessary books, records, data, and assets, and supporting you as needed. Should the review require special expertise, the committee may also engage an external expert.
This is a vital statutory function that ensures good governance and compliance with the Association’s obligations. Your appointment will be for one year, and the mandate can only be revoked by the General Assembly upon appointment of another committee.
We welcome members with an interest in governance, finance, or auditing. Professional financial expertise is welcome but not required as integrity and willingness to serve are most important.
How to apply:
If you are interested in serving on the Financial Committee, please send a short statement of interest to office@fdcc.eu
Thank you for helping us uphold the integrity and transparency of our Association.
