The Worshipful Company of Chartered Surveyors Charitable Investment Fund Independent Examiner's Report for the year ending 30th September 2020 

Report to the Trustees of: The Worshipful Company of Chartered Surveyors Charitable Investment Fund     Charity No: 1012227 

Accounts for the Year ended 30th September 2020 set out on page 7-13 

## **Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner** 

The Charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts.  The Charity's Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act), and that an independent examination is needed 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act, 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under section 145 (5)(b) of the 2011 Act), and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement** 

**My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners.  An** examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records.  It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the Trustees concerning any such matters.  The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently.  No opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## **Independent Examiner's Statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- 1 which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements: 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 130 of the 2011 Act: and 

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent s examination, have not been met; or 

- 2 to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
