Too Generous Subsidies? Transparency of Nonprofit Organizations with Generous Public Funding
Original language description
Transparency of nonprofit organizations typically vary according to organization´s nature, type, environment and many other factors. It is assumed, organizations co-operating with the governmental sector and receiving public funding should in larger extent exhibit higher level of transparency. Therefore, this paper objective is to identify current image of transparency in nonprofit organizations (N=28) with subsidies from the Czech governmental budget exceeding €2 million in 2016. Research data were gathered with use of public register search and the content analysis of organizational websites. Four main omains were investigated: existence of organizational website, availability of main organizational documents (statutes, annual reports), presence and quality of strategic statements, and publishing of financial statements of organization. Findings showed big differences in transparency of organizations with sport organizations on one end of the scale, where transparency is very low and even these organizations do not keep legal requirements, and organizations providing social services, which usually higher transparency than it is required by legislation. Moreover, examples of bad practice and non-standard and non-systematic funding are also presented.
