Guernsey charities have expressed serious concern over the introduction of banking fees by NatWest International.
From Saturday 29 May, non-personal accounts will be charged £10 per month to operate current accounts and £2.50 for each non-automated transaction.
The Association of Guernsey Charities (AGC) estimates that at least 120 of its members will be affected, and says a large number have contacted them to express serious concern.
The AGC says the extra charges could take up to £20,000 a year from charities at a time when most have been severely constrained from raising funds .
