Provision of financial service from CES provides schools and other clients with independent oversight of the accounting function, important from an audit and risk perspective. Communication with our clients is important to ensure a sound working relationship. CES’s service includes telephone support to assist schools with any financial queries. In addition to this all our finance officers are contactable by email or by fax. Additional benefits of using CES as a service provider include:
Helping you get best bang for your school fundsWe can help you maximise your valuable school funds through our relationship with Westpac our key banking partner. CES makes investments on behalf of client schools — in excess of $40,000,000 with Westpac alone. We seek the best rates possible that meet the needs of the 'call' your school may want to have on its funds. You may, for instance, choose a short-term deposit because the funds are tagged for development work.
With CES, your funds are able to attract very satisfactory returns because, with a significant portfolio, we’re able to leverage the best interest rates. Note however that each investment is in each individual schools name, and in separate accounts.
CES maintains relationships with a number of institutions and banks, which are approved by the Ministry of Education, a requirement under the Education Act. All institutions/banks CES has a relationship with have moved to participate in and are warranted under the NZ Deposit Guarantee Scheme.
