- assess, as necessary, present programs as well as new initiatives for budgetary impact and ensure that proper risk-management provisions are in place;
- examine quarterly reports on expenditures and income and require explanations for those expenditures beyond the budget previously approved by the Board;
- monitor investment performance and recommend changes to the investment strategy as appropriate;
- recommend amendments to financial policies and procedures to ensure adequate internal controls, the use of standard accounting practices, and compliance with federal and state statutes;
- review the annual Association audit and monitor compliance with any management advisory notes; and
