New fund provides HSBC clients with a simple, efficient and flexible way to make charitable contributions
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
HSBC Bank USA today introduced the HSBC Donor Advised Fund (HSBC DAF) in collaboration with National Philanthropic Trust (NPT), the largest national and independent charitable sponsor of DAFs. This new program allows HSBC clients to strategically support causes and qualified charities of their choice and receive an immediate tax deduction for their contributions. The HSBC DAF offers a simple, efficient and flexible way to make a charitable contribution.
DAFs are the fastest-growing segment of charitable giving vehicles, ahead of private foundations, trusts, annuities and pooled-income funds. This is largely due to flexibility and simplicity of use. DAF donors are able to contribute a wide range of assets, both liquid and illiquid, to the fund, and any potential investment returns will increase the amounts available for charitable donations.
According to National Philanthropic Trust’s 2021 DAF Report:
Grantmaking from DAFs to qualified charities totaled more than $34 billion in 2020, a 27% increase from 2019
In 2020, DAF donors contributed an estimated $47.8 billion to their accounts
Charitable assets in DAFs totaled $159.8 billion, a 9.9% increase from 2019
“For clients that are philanthropically inclined, donor-advised funds are a great way for individuals and families to give back to charitable organizations or causes that they value and support,” said Carly Doshi, Head of Wealth Planning and Advisory, Americas. “It’s important to recognize the crucial role individuals and family philanthropists play in tackling today’s biggest social issues. With the addition of this DAF program, we’re providing solutions that will help our clients ensure their philanthropic decisions have a positive impact on the world and are aligned with their family's values.”
DAFs offer the maximum tax benefits allowed by law. HSBC clients who choose to open a DAF can:
Select an investment strategy for contributions to the DAF
Designate who has access to the account, including family members and advisors
Recommend charitable grants to both domestic (US) and international charities
Define a legacy plan for the HSBC DAF
“NPT is proud to be a part of HSBC Bank's solutions to help clients support what means most to them, strategically and efficiently, with donor-advised funds,” said René Paradis, Chief Operating Officer, National Philanthropic Trust. “The number of DAF accounts has increased almost 400% in the past decade and HSBC Bank's new donor-advised fund program will continue to help advance charitable giving around the world.”
As a public charity, NPT issues gift receipts to donors for their contributions, which can be used for personal income tax filing purposes. To make a gift that will reduce 2021 income taxes, the gift must be received by NPT on or before December 31, 2021.
“The launch of the HSBC Donor Advised Fund provides our clients with distinct and tailored wealth management and philanthropic investing options,” Doshi said.
