The mission of The British Asian Trust resonates for Alpesh Patel, renowned UK financial expert, commentator and author. Along with the British-Asian connection, the driving force for his support is the Trust’s ability to promote best practice in the charitable sector.
“It’s an important factor that the Trust is ensuring the sustainability and effectiveness of small non-governmental organisations in Asia,” he says.
A world authority on trading and investment, Alpesh Patel is particularly impressed with The British Asian Trust’ s emphasis on investing in charities and guaranteeing that donations make the greatest impact. ‘They are able to leverage every £1 and ensure that it goes a lot further than it would otherwise go,” he says. “There is no wastage.”
Responsible, effective and trustworthy are words he uses to describe the Trust. “You feel you are in safe, responsible hands at The British Asian Trust. It’s an organisation with a strong and sensible strategy,” he says.
