Financial Plan

Planning is bringing the future into the present so that you can do something about it now

~Alan Lakein

 

Finance is an important enabler for attainment of strategic goals of Rhodes University. An institutional viability plan established and approved by Council is founded upon a three-year financial viability plan which lays the foundation for institutional sustainability, including financial sustainability, into the future. Table 11 provides a summary of a five-year projection of Rhodes University’s revenue and expenditure. The forecast is based on certain assumptions grounded on current funding frameworks, which is subject to variation over time. The forecast also comprises planned expenditure on capital-intensive aspects of the goals of this IDP such as infrastructural backlog maintenance.
