## **MORGAN STANLEY INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (CONTINUED)** 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

The principal objective of the Foundation is to make a positive and sustainable impact on children’s welfare in disadvantaged communities across the Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) region. Focusing primarily on child health and education, the Foundation works in partnership with charitable organisations to direct funding and utilise the expertise of Morgan Stanley employees to benefit the communities in which Morgan Stanley operates. There have been no changes to the principal activity of the Foundation in the year. 

## **Public Benefit** 

In setting the objectives and planning the activities of the Foundation, the Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit. Through supporting local communities in line with the objectives outlined above, the Foundation meets the requirements of this guidance. 

## **Grant Policy** 

The Foundation makes grants through three different channels: direct charitable grants, employee-nominated charity partnerships and employee matching grants. 

1. Direct charitable grant applications are invited for the funding of projects in the EMEA region and are reviewed at the Trustees' meetings against specific grant objectives. Multi-year grants are monitored on an annual basis to ensure the grant criteria continue to be met. 

2. Employee nominated charity partnerships are voted for by Morgan Stanley employees, and the Foundation matches employee fundraising and donations up to a pre-determined amount. 

3. Employee matching grants recognise Morgan Stanley employees' fundraising and volunteering efforts in their local communities. The Foundation currently matches fundraising efforts by an employee for a charitable organisation up to a maximum of £500 per employee in one given year. In addition, grants in recognition of certain employees’ volunteering efforts are awarded at £500 per employee to a charity of the employee’s choice in one given year. 

## **Diversity and Inclusion** 

Diversity and Inclusion is a fundamental focus for the Foundation. It is the belief that a diverse board of trustees is important to its continued success and its ability to meet the Foundation’s objectives. To this end, the Foundation sets diversity and inclusion criteria to be considered when appointing members to the Board of Trustees to ensure that the Foundation represents gender, ethnicity, age and geographic location and any other relevant factors. 

Diversity and inclusion are also a key focus of the Foundation’s selection process of the charities it supports. Analysis is performed to ensure that charities’ programmes reach a diverse range of individuals. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

Each year the Foundation receives a donation from Morgan Stanley & Co International plc (“MSIP”), a UK subsidiary of the Morgan Stanley Group. In 2021, the Foundation received a donation of £1,195,966 (2020: £1,198,153). In addition to the annual donation, the Foundation received two further donations from MSIP of £554,999 on 9 March 2021 and £752,533 on 21 December 2021. 

The Foundation continues to be a strategic partner for local, national and international organisations, employing a combination of funding and the time and expertise of Morgan Stanley employees to maximise positive impact. 

Although the global economy has begun to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, as many health and safety restrictions have been lifted and vaccine distribution continues to increase, certain adverse consequences of the pandemic continue to impact the global economy and may persist for some time. Morgan Stanley volunteers have been able to work remotely or in the office and so there has been no significant impact of the pandemic on the objectives and operations of the Foundation. The Foundation’s key sources of funding were not impacted, and the Foundation was able to continue to support charitable grants in the financial year. 

To address ongoing pandemic-related learning challenges being experienced by some of the most marginalised children in the UK, Italy and Spain, the Foundation made a one-off grant to Save the Children of £275,000 helping the charity support 1,500 children. The Foundation also supported the Hungarian Red Cross with a grant of £50,000 to provide hygiene and medical products to protect new-born babies and their parents, reaching 500 families across Hungary.

## **MORGAN STANLEY INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (CONTINUED)** 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE (CONTINUED)** 

The Foundation’s performance measures include programme indicators that are unique to each organisation. For example, The Alliance for Children’s Mental Health programme will be measured via the number of new teachers it is able to train in relation to children’s mental health and the number of young people that it supports directly through transition from primary to secondary school. 

## **1. Direct Charitable Grants** 

During 2021, the Foundation provided direct grants to over 16 charities across EMEA supporting organisations who work primarily in the areas of child health and education. 

Key charitable grants in London and Glasgow during 2021 include: 

**Alliance for Children’s Mental Health** (part of a Morgan Stanley Global Programme). The programme combines the resources and reach of Morgan Stanley with the knowledge and experience of our charity partners to help deliver positive, tangible impact on the critical challenges of stress, anxiety and depression in children, adolescents, and young people. The charities supported by the Foundation include: 

- **Place2Be** : The program has already upskilled over 11,000 teachers in London (14% of all teachers) and 2,600 teachers in Glasgow (49% of all teachers) on issues related to children’s mental health. In addition, Place2Be supported school-based mental health services for children in 14 schools in East London and Glasgow. 

- **Scottish Association for Mental Health (“SAMH”)** : SAMH delivered a school-based program in Glasgow to support the mental health of young people, particularly in their transition from primary to secondary school. Over the course of 2021, the Glasgow Connect Project activity included 414 pupils (academic year 2020 - 21 and 2021 – 22) participating in individual sessions to support them in making a mentally healthy transition to high school (95 hours direct delivery). In addition, 38 pupils presenting with mental health problems received individual and group therapy sessions (109 hours direct delivery). 

**Healthy Glasgow** (part of a Morgan Stanley Global Programme – Healthy Cities). The programme is designed to offer parents better access to wellness, nutrition and play resources for children to get a healthy start in life. The charities supported by the Foundation include: 

- **PEEK – Possibilities for Each and Every Kid:** PEEK delivers the holiday club play programme and term time support at St Stephens School. At these sessions, in 2021, 27,414 hours of play were provided to over 300 children and 15,094 lunches were given to the children and their parents or guardians. 

- **Magic Breakfast:** The programme delivers healthy nutritious breakfasts in both term time and during the holiday period. In 2021, 47,506 breakfasts were provided. 

Key charitable grants across the EMEA region outside the UK during 2021 include: 

- **Die Arche:** a German charity that provides a safe place for children living in financial and emotional poverty and helps them to achieve a solid education. The project funded by the Foundation supports the after-school education programme in Frankfurt. 

- **Fundacion Tomillo:** a charity based in Spain which seeks to contribute to social improvement and personal development of young people in Madrid. The project funded by the Foundation provides employment training for young people who have failed at school and are trying to get back into education and/or employment. 

`-` **Bagazs:** a Hungarian charity that works to promote the integration of the underserved Roma population and help Romani children to achieve the same academic and career success as the majority. The project funded by the Foundation focusses on the Roma settlement of Bag, supporting parent-child relationships, performance in school and building self-confidence.

## **MORGAN STANLEY INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (CONTINUED)** 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE (CONTINUED)** 

The Foundation also expanded its support to Paris and Dublin in 2021, supporting Alliance pour l’education and Basis Point respectively. A list of all grants made by the Foundation during the year greater than or equal to £20,000 is included in Note 5 to the financial statements. 

## **2. Employee Nominated Charity Partnerships** 

The Foundation also looks to raise funds for specific projects over a two-year period through “Employee Nominated Charity Partnerships” across a number of offices in EMEA. Partnerships were selected by employees in October 2021 and will run through until September 2023. 

## **London** 

In October 2021, London employees nominated The Felix Project as their new charity partner. An initial target for employee fund raising of £500,000 was set which would be matched by the Foundation over the course of the partnership. Funds raised will help The Felix Project run its new East London operation for the next five years, rescuing and distributing 75 million meals to hundreds of charities, schools and community groups in East London, where deprivation is amongst the highest of any urban area in Europe. 

As at 31 December 2021, London employees had donated £21,494 with an additional £24,575 being paid directly to the charity. As at 31 December 2021, there have been no matching payments made toward this cause. 

Over the course of the relationship with Teenage Cancer Trust (“TCT”), which commenced in October 2019 and ceased in September 2021, London employees’ donations and Foundation matching for the duration of the partnership totalled £1,223,451 including £132,981 raised in 2021. The Teenage Cancer Trust and Morgan Stanley Unit at University College London Hospital was officially opened on 11 July 2022. 

## **Glasgow** 

In October 2021, Glasgow employees nominated Children’s Hospices Across Scotland (“CHAS”) as their new charity partner. An initial target for employee fund raising of £90,000 was set which would be matched by the Foundation over the course of the partnership. Funds raised will support a new project – Flourishing Beyond Bereavement. This is an inclusive, personalised support service which can be accessed across the country, ensuring bereaved brothers and sisters are given the best chance in life. As at 31 December 2021, there have been no matching payments made toward this cause. 

Over the course of the relationship with Scottish Association for Mental Health (“SAMH”), which ceased in September 2021, Glasgow employees’ donations and Foundation matching totalled over £185,000. 

## **Budapest** 

In October 2021, Budapest employees nominated Salva Vita as their new charity partner. An initial target of HUF 15MM (approx. £30,000) was set, which would be matched by the Foundation over the course of the partnership. Funds raised will help Salva Vita find work experience for disabled young people, fund supported living and reduce the stigma of disability in Hungary. As at 31 December 2021, there have been no matching payments made toward this cause. 

Over the course of the relationship with Heim Pál Children’s Hospital, which ceased in September 2021, Budapest employee donations made directly to the charity and Foundation matching totalled over HUF 30MM (approx. £60,000). Funding has enabled the charity to purchase much needed equipment that includes a portable ultrasound machine, surgical equipment, new technology suitable for medical imaging and wheelchairs, along with training and development for doctors. 

## **Frankfurt** 

In October 2021, Frankfurt employees nominated Kinderschutzbund Frankfurt as their new charity partner. An initial target of EUR 70,000 (approx. £60,000) was set, which would be matched by the Foundation over the course of the partnership. Funds raised will help Kinderschutzbund Frankfurt establish a Family House, where families with young children who are in need of help will be provided with a place to talk about their situation and also with clothing, baby equipment and supplies. As at 31 December 2021, there have been no matching payments made toward this cause.

## **MORGAN STANLEY INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (CONTINUED)** 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE (CONTINUED)** 

**3. Other Charity Partnerships in 2021** 

Other employee-nominated charity partners across EMEA were: 

- L’Envol in Paris; 

- Fundacion Aladina in Milan; 

- Association CAF Onlus in Madrid; 

- Laura Lynn in Dublin; and 

- Kinderspital in Zurich. 

These charities all work to support a range of children’s causes. 

## **4. Employee Matching Grants** 

The Foundation also sought to increase employee engagement and understanding of its work, and rewarded in excess of £42,000 to over 60 employees for their volunteering and fundraising efforts with a donation to their chosen charity, providing public benefit through the supported charities activities. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

The net inflow of funds in the year was £650,731 (2020: £402,685) and the total funds at the end of the year were £3,450,899 (2020: £2,800,168). The Foundation's balance sheet shows net current assets of £845,691 (2020: net current assets of £257,410). The Foundation has access to liquid securities within the investment portfolio, classified as fixed assets, which can be liquidated at any time to meet funding needs. 

The level of donations received in 2021 increased by £1,361,218 to £2,657,973 (2020: £1,296,755) primarily driven by additional Morgan Stanley Group donations from MSIP throughout 2021. 

In 2021, grant expenditure of £2,131,332 (2020: £963,255) was recognised, which increased by £1,168,077 from the prior year. The Foundation’s restricted expenditure in 2021 of £654,475 includes donations to its employee nominated charity partnerships TCT (£132,981) and The Felix Project (£521,494) (2020: restricted expenditure totalling £99,023 for TCT). The increase in restricted expenditure of £555,452 is primarily due to the recognition of the Foundation’s two-year employee donation matching commitment to The Felix Project in 2021. These restricted employee donations represent approximately 30% of the total 2021 grant expenditure (2020: 10%). Other significant grants include: Place2be, Save the Children (pandemic grant), Great Ormond Street Hospital (“GOSH”), Save the Children (London), CHAS and PEEK. 

## **Going Concern and Principal Funding Sources** 

The existing and potential effects of COVID-19 on the Foundation have been considered as part of the going concern analysis, including impact on operational capacity, access to funding sources and contractual obligations. The Foundation has sufficient resources to cover future pledged liabilities and continually monitors reserve levels to ensure reserves held are in excess of the level of reserves requirement. The principal funding sources for the Foundation continue to be donations from MSIP and donations from Morgan Stanley employees. Employee donations have been, and continue to be, raised internally via various Morgan Stanley fundraising activities. The Foundation does not participate in external fundraising or engage others to do so on their behalf. No changes are foreseen to the principal funding sources in 2022 and 2023. 

The Foundation will only commit to making payments of charitable donations if there are sufficient funds available to do so and it continues to meet its reserves policy. Note 12 of the financial statements includes information on the Foundation's contingent liabilities. Taking these factors into consideration, the Trustees have no reason to believe that the Foundation will not have access to adequate funding sources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future i.e. at least twelve months from the approval of the financial statements. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual Report of the Trustees and financial statements. 

## **Investment Policy and Performance** 

All investments held by the Foundation have been acquired in accordance with the powers available to the Trustees. 

In accordance with the Trust Deed, the Trustees have the power to invest in such stocks, shares, investments and property as they see fit. The Trustees engaged Credit Suisse (UK) Limited as investment manager until March 2022 and gave them full discretion when evaluating social, environmental or ethical issues. From March 2022, the Trustees engaged Sarasin & Partners LLP under similar terms.

## **MORGAN STANLEY INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (CONTINUED)** 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW (CONTINUED)** 

## **Investment Policy and Performance (Continued)** 

During the year, the portfolio produced a positive return of 5.2% (2020: positive return of 3.4%). 

The Foundation’s investment strategy is to maintain overall wealth, preferably in real terms. 

## **Risk Management** 

The Trustees annually assess the major risks to which the Foundation is exposed _,_ in particular, risks related to the operations and finances of the Foundation and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate these risks. 

The principal operational risks faced by the Foundation are its ability to access its financial assets and make effective grants. Risks associated with access to the Foundation’s financial assets are mitigated through clear segregation of duties, control of access rights and supervision by Trustees. The risk from ineffective grant making is managed through performance of due diligence procedures on prospective grantees, Trustee oversight regarding alignment of grant making with the objectives of the Foundation and monitoring the delivery of grant projects. 

The Foundation’s principal financial risks are mitigated by Trustees review of relevant financial information on a quarterly basis (including investment performance, actual expenditure against budget, current level of reserves and cash flow analysis) and utilising Credit Suisse (UK) Limited as manager and custodian of its investment portfolio (Sarasin & Partners LLP from March 2022). 

## **Restricted and Unrestricted Funds** 

Restricted funds are reserved for selected Employee Nominated Charity Partnership and are not made available for any other purpose. Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Foundation. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

In line with the Statement of Recommended Practice (“SORP”) 2019 and Charity Commission guidelines, the Trustees regularly review the effectiveness of the Foundation’s reserves policy. In 2021, the Trustees approved the reduction of the reserves policy in order to ensure the most efficient use of the Foundation’s reserves. As of 2021, the Foundation’s reserve policy is to maintain a level of reserves greater than 100% of the current year’s budgeted expenditure (previously: 120%) in liquid assets to cover future commitments and contingent liabilities, to safeguard the risk of a downturn in contributions and to ensure that the Foundation provides regular, sustained and consistent support to its designated charities. 

As at 31 December 201, the Foundation’s level of reserves is in excess of the requirement set out in this policy at 240% (2020: 186%) of the current year budget.  Budgeted expenditure for the year to 31 December 2021 was £1,436,157 (2020: £1,507,255), giving rise to required reserves of £1,436,157 (2020: £1,507,255). Total Funds of £3,450,899 (2020: £2,800,168), readily available in the form of cash and investments, represented the liquid assets under the reserves policy. As at both 31 December 2021 and 31 December 2020, the Foundation’s Restricted Funds were £nil. 

The Foundation’s level of reserves is monitored by the Trustees throughout the year. 

## **PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS** 

No significant change in the Foundation’s principal activity is anticipated. The Trustees intend to continue to provide grants to non-profit educational and children’s health care organizations that provide a benefit to the communities in which the Foundation operates. 

The Foundation will continue to encourage employee volunteer engagement in 2022 and 2023. Efforts will be made to ensure there are a variety of coordinated volunteer programmes that maximize the talents and skills of Morgan Stanley employees, adding increased benefit to the grant beneficiaries alongside further monitoring of how supported programmes are performing. 

The Trustees will continue to expand the reach of the Foundation throughout EMEA, specifically in those countries where Morgan Stanley operates. The Foundation continues to seek relevant charitable partners and hopes to establish new relationships and provide grants across Morgan Stanley’s EMEA locations in 2022.

The Board of Trustees may delegate any of their powers or functions to committees consisting of two or more persons appointed by them, with at least one member of every committee being a Trustee. All proceedings of committees are reported to the Trustees within a reasonable period.

The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

## **Basis for opinion** 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. 

We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the Financial Reporting Council’s (the FRC’s) Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. 

## **Other information** 

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. 

We have nothing to report in this regard.

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF** 

## **MORGAN STANLEY INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION (CONTINUED)** 

## **Responsibilities of Trustees** 

As explained more fully in the Trustees’ responsibilities statement, the Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

## **Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the FRC’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report. 

## **Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud** 

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below. 

We considered the nature of the charity’s industry and its control environment, and reviewed the charity’s documentation of their policies and procedures relating to fraud and compliance with laws and regulations. We also enquired of management about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities. 

We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the charity operates in, and identified the key laws and regulations that: 

- had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. These included the UK Charities Act, Trust Deed, Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008; and 

- do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which may be fundamental to the charity’s ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty. This included the Charity Commission and GDPR. 

We discussed among the audit engagement team regarding the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the organisation for fraud and how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements. 

As a result of performing the above, we identified the greatest potential for fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations in the following area, and our specific procedures performed to address it are described below: 

- we presume a risk of material misstatement due to fraud in revenue recognition which is related to the completeness of donation income. To address this risk, we performed a test of design and implementation of control relating to the completeness of donation income, we reviewed the Trustees’ meeting minutes, all bank statements in the period, and post year end records up to the date of this report to test whether income had been appropriately included in the financial statements. 

In common with all audits under ISAs (UK), we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override. In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls; we tested the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments; assessed whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias; and evaluated the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business. 

In addition to the above, our procedures to respond to the risks identified included the following:

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF** 

## **MORGAN STANLEY INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION (CONTINUED)** 

- reviewing financial statement disclosures by testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with provisions of relevant laws and regulations described as having a direct effect on the financial statements; 

- performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud; 

- enquiring of management concerning actual and potential litigation and claims, and instances of noncompliance with laws and regulations; and 

- reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance. 

## **Report on other legal and regulatory requirements** 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

Under the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 we are required to report in respect of the following matters if, in our opinion: 

- the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the Trustees’ report; or 

- sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or 

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. 

We have nothing to report in respect of these matters. 

## **Use of our report** 

This report is made solely to the charity’s Trustees, as a body, in accordance with part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s Trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s Trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

## **MORGAN STANLEY INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Year ended 31 December 2021** 

## **1. BASIS OF PREPARATION** 

## **Charitable status** 

The Foundation is established as a Trust under a Charitable Trust Deed (the “Trust Deed”) dated 18 November 1994 as amended by a Deed of Variation dated 10 July 2014 and is registered with the Charity Commission. 

## **Statement of compliance** 

The Foundation meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. 

These financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note to these financial statements. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP 2019)” applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom (FRS 102), effective 1 January 2019; and the Charities Act 2011. They have all been applied consistently throughout the year and the preceding year. 

Certain presentational changes have been made to the Statement of Cash Flows for 2020. There is no impact on total amounts reported. 

## **New standards and interpretations** 

There were no new standards of interpretations relevant to the Foundation’s operations which were adopted during the year. 

## **The going concern assumption** 

The Foundation’s activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position are set out in the Report of the Trustees. The existing and potential effects of COVID-19 on the Foundation have been considered as part of the going concern analysis, including impact on operational capacity, access to liquidity and capital and contractual obligations. The Foundation has sufficient resources to cover future pledged liabilities and continually monitors reserve levels to ensure reserves are held are in excess of the reserves requirement. The principal funding sources for the Foundation continue to be donations from MSIP and donations from Morgan Stanley employees. Employee donations have been raised internally via various Morgan Stanley fundraising activities. The Foundation does not participate in external fundraising or engage others to do so on their behalf. No changes are foreseen to the principal funding sources in 2022. 

Taking these factors into consideration, the Trustees have no reason to believe that the Foundation will not have access to adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future i.e. at least twelve months from the approval of the financial statements. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual Report of the Trustees and financial statements. 

## **2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **a. Fund structure** 

Restricted funds are reserved for a selected Employee Nominated Charity Partnership and are not made available for any other purpose. Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Foundation. 

## **b. Income recognition** 

All income is recognised once the Foundation has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. 

Donations and interest on funds held on deposit are recognised when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Foundation; this is typically upon notification of receipt by the bank.

## **MORGAN STANLEY INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) Year ended 31 December 2021** 

## **2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)** 

## **c. Expenditure recognition** 

Expenditure is recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the Foundation to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of obligation can be measured reliably. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. Charitable activities expenditure includes grants payments made to third party charities in the furtherance of the charitable objectives of the Foundation (specifically direct charitable grants and employee matching grants) and costs of employee fundraising activities. 

Grants are recognised when the Foundation has a legal or constructive obligation to make the grant. For direct grants, this is typically once a recipient charity has been notified of a grant award. 

## **d. Foreign currencies** 

All monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than Pound Sterling are translated in Pound Sterling at the rates ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in currencies other than Pound Sterling are recorded at the rates ruling at the dates of transactions. All translation differences are taken through “Other recognised gains/ (losses)” in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

## **e. Investments** 

Investments held in an investment portfolio are stated at their fair value at the balance sheet date. The Statement of Financial Activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year. 

## **f. Contingent liabilities** 

A contingent liability is identified and disclosed for those grants resulting from: 

- i) a possible obligation which will only be confirmed by the occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the Trustees’ control; or 

- ii) the amount has not been communicated in the grant award and that amount can be estimated reliably. 

## **g. Taxation** 

The Foundation is recognised as a charity for taxation purposes and as a result no liability to taxation arises on its charitable activities. 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the expenditure heading for which it was incurred. 

## **h. Donated services** 

The Foundation relies on the employees of Morgan Stanley for various administrative tasks of which the costs cannot be reliably measured and are borne by another Morgan Stanley group undertaking. 

## **i. Critical accounting judgements** 

No critical judgements have been made in the process of applying the foundation’s accounting policies that have had a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements. There are no key sources of estimation uncertainty in the reporting period that may have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the next financial year. 

## **3. DONATIONS** 

Donations from organisations represent monies received from MSIP. Other donations to the restricted funds represent monies received from employees within the Morgan Stanley EMEA group of companies. 

## **4. INVESTMENT INCOME**

Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022, global financial markets have been and are expected to continue to be significantly impacted in 2022. However, the Foundation has no direct exposure to Russia and Ukraine. The Foundation will continue to closely monitor events and their potential impact. 

From March 2022, the Foundation has transitioned to a new investment manager, Sarasin & Partners LLP from Credit Suisse (UK) Limited. 

The Foundation did not note any subsequent events other than above requiring disclosure or adjustment to the financial statements.
