BTNEF has established extensive board and management policies that will guide receipt and investment of funds. These policies were developed with much thought and consideration. They are updated annually by the Board of Director’s at its Annual Retreat. Investors are informed about their investments and the benefits that they have produced to recipients. Saving and spending are typically the opposite. BTNEF has enabled investors to save and spend through deliberate polices that spend financial assets today while simultaneously saving financial assets for the future.
