Much has been written in charity law on the type of benefits that
charities can provide - charitable purposes - and towards whom such
benefits must be directed - the public benefit question. Almost
nothing has been written about when benefits must be provided.
However, accumulation of assets by charities raises profound
ethical, economic and social considerations that are highlighted by
the present retreat of the welfare state and the impact of the
Global Financial Crisis and COVID-19. This book analyses the issue
through a normative, doctrinal and comparative analysis of the
legal constraints upon accumulation by charities. It reveals that
the legal restraints contain significant gaps in relation to the
intergenerational distribution of benefits and to the balance of
decision-making between generations. In particular, the book
asserts that there is room for law reform to better identify and
incorporate principles of intergenerational justice into the
regulation of charities.
