Activities and Impact

The FIA Foundation (Foundation) supports and promotes safe and sustainable mobility around the world. Our objective is safe and healthy journeys for all.

We work to prevent road traffic injury in the context of a world in which almost 1.4 million people are killed and many millions more injured on the roads globally every year. We advocate for increased international and country level response to this epidemic in line with the Sustainable Development Goals agenda and we support programmes designed to reduce the toll of human suffering.

With growing political awareness of the health effects of air pollution, including from vehicles, we work with UN agencies, expert partners and major cities to accurately measure the emissions performance of vehicles, and to highlight the rights of all, and especially children, to safe and healthy travel. We also lead pioneering work to understand the mobility impact of harassment on women.

Our support for cutting-edge motor sport safety research and training contributes to keeping thousands of participants and spectators safe across the world.

In 2021 our funding programme and initiatives have been:

Chair’s Statement

For the FIA Foundation, as for everyone, 2021 was dominated by COVID-19 as the pandemic continued into its second year. Buoyed by continuing excellent investment returns through most of 2021, the Foundation board took the decision to provide a further €1 million donation to support equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines, supporting the campaigns of UNICEF and the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent. This built on our exceptional support for COVID-19 response, totaling €2.4 million, in 2020.

Our team, and many of our partners, worked from home for most of the year and as the peaks and troughs of the virus rotated across the world some of our countries of operation which had escaped the worst in 2020 were hit hard. This inevitably resulted in project postponements and delays, and difficulties in maintaining the momentum of regular contact with officials and communities which drives so much of the work we support. Yet, despite the obstacles, our objectives advanced and progress was made, and the focus on online meetings helped to broaden participation. Towards the end of 2021 the Foundation team were actively engaged in person at the COP26 Climate summit in Glasgow and at the preparatory event for the UN High Level Meeting on Road Safety, hosted by the President of the United Nations General Assembly in New York.

In May 2021 the United Nations Road Safety Collaboration led the 7[th] UN Road Safety Week, an important rallying moment for the global road safety community despite being mostly virtual. The Foundation was intensively involved in the preparations, designing the ‘Streets for Life’ concept focused on the benefits, for people and planet, of low urban speed limits and the walkable environments they enable. We also led the online global launch event, which featured UN Deputy Secretary General Amina Mohammed, WHO Director General Dr Tedros and many other leaders. We also coordinated a Call to Action, signed by almost all UN agency heads, many ministers and mayors, and NGO leaders. ‘Streets for Life’ was also the central message of the launch of the Global Plan for the Second Decade of Action for Road Safety later in the year and will be the banner for the UN High Level Meeting in June 2022. Underpinning these events and statements with practical action, the Foundation launched its Child Health Initiative ‘Advocacy Hub’ providing millions of euros in support for national, regional and city campaigns to adopt 30km-an-hour safe street policies across the world. To generate wider support and investment for this agenda, we continued to forge alliances with global health partners to call attention to the woeful under-investment in adolescents and young adults. Our campaign, launched in 2018, to secure a first ever Global Youth Summit achieved its goal in late 2021 when the UN General Assembly resolved to organise a summit in 2025. Youth will also be a key focus of the review summit for the Sustainable Development Goals in 2023, and road danger – as the leading global cause of death for young people – must be at the heart of discussions. We will continue to work at all levels to further our campaign for safe and healthy journeys for children and youth.

This strategic, multi-layered, advocacy has been a hallmark of the Foundation since its early days. In 2021 we marked 20 years since the establishment of the charity (work got underway in earnest in 2002). The death of our founder Max Mosley, in May 2021, made this a bittersweet anniversary and I would like to pay tribute to the vision of the FIA in 2001, and to Max, in designing the FIA Foundation as an independent charity in the public interest and for the long term. I hope and believe that so constituted we are demonstrating an important contribution to the public good, and real value to the wider FIA, in particular our club membership, not only in the funding and ideas that we invest back into the FIA world, but in the way our outreach to the wider policy world has helped to affirm the FIA as a good global citizen and force for positive change.

Chair’s Statement

This work has been aided when we have a mutually collaborative and supportive partnership with the FIA. In his role as FIA President and as UN Special Envoy for Road Safety Jean Todt has been closely involved in many aspects of the Foundation’s work. Jean stepped down from the FIA Presidency, and the Foundation board, in December 2021. I would like to pay tribute to his unwavering commitment to road safety and the environment. I have enjoyed our collaboration and we will maintain our connection as he continues his UN role. We have already established a strong and close working relationship with the new FIA leadership team, led by FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem.

The benefits of our long-term and consistent approach are evident in the activities and investment reports of these Financial Statements. For example, two programmes that we helped to launch, and have consistently funded, reaping public health rewards. When the Global New Car Assessment Programme began crash testing cars in India in 2014, safety standards were often, literally, zero. From zero-star cars to the five-star Tata Punch, one of many home-grown cars now achieving high safety performance, catalysed by the widespread publicity and public interest, and policy influence, of the Global NCAP campaign.

Meanwhile, the International Road Assessment Programme is now assessing road infrastructure in 100 countries, working closely with governments and development banks. A version of iRAP’s assessment methodology is now integrated within the World Bank’s own safety policies. iRAP star ratings are now being used as an essential metric providing competitive advantage to bidders for road concessions valued in the billions of dollars. This is how we drive sustainable change.

It is also an approach which has benefited the safety of motor sport. Looking back over twenty years I have been impressed to see just how many of the safety improvements in the sport have been powered by Foundation funding, from fire resistant clothing to extrication training, from high-speed barriers to the Halo. Through our new ‘Track to Road’ funding stream we seek to transfer some of this knowledge to the public road, beginning with the Foundation’s support for the FIA’s safe and affordable helmet. Much of the training of volunteer officials, marshals and medics that we fund is never seen by the public but it underpins the safety and integrity of the sport.

The final worldwide elimination of leaded fuel in 2021 also shows the need for long term investment and commitment. The Foundation has supported this campaign, led by the UN Environment Programme, since 2003. It took time and patience, but the results are so worthwhile. While demanding more urgency, we recognise that it requires a similar long view in the march to establish global road safety as a leading public health concern; and, through our coordination of the Global Fuel Economy Initiative, our work with cities on measuring real vehicle emissions, and our pioneering research on women’s needs and rights for sustainable transport, in contributing to the response to the climate change emergency.

Chair’s Statement

At the time of writing this report, in May 2022, war has returned to central Europe and the Foundation is making another exceptional humanitarian response to assist Ukraine’s refugees. Our charitable objects are for the protection and preservation of human life, and in our own field of public policy the Foundation works above all to protect the vulnerable against the powerful. The societal and governance change this requires cannot be underestimated, but the benefits that flow can be immense and felt far beyond sustainable transportation. In a time of war and pandemic, we remain focused on our mission.

The FIA Foundation is saddened by the passing of José Abed, who died aged 77 on 2 June 2022 in Mexico City. Mr Abed had been a trustee of the FIA Foundation since 2015. Mr Abed was President of OMDAI, the Mexican Automobile and Motor Sports organisation, which is an affiliated member of the FIA. Alongside a successful business career, Mr Abed, a civil and mechanical engineer by training, was active in motor sport, both as a competitor (he was motorcycle champion of Mexico in 1961) and as an administrator. He was a member of the FIA World Motor Sport Council since 1987, an FIA Sport Vice President and a F1 Race Steward. Amongst his many sporting activities and roles, Mr Abed was President of the Mexican Football Delegation at the 1998 FIFA World Cup. He also had a keen interest in mobility issues, and was an active member of the FIA Foundation board.

Trustees Report: Strategic Report

The Trustees present their report on the activities and results for the year ended 31 December 2021. This report will outline some of the highlights of the year including the progress made against objectives, the new challenges being undertaken, and the goals being set for the future to achieve the aims of the FIA Foundation (Foundation).

Activities and Impact

Progress on the main activities and projects undertaken by the Foundation during the reporting period are highlighted below. Further details are available in our Annual Review, which is available at www.fiafoundation.org

Implementing Strategy 2030

This has been the first year for implementation of the Foundation’s new strategy, which has a 2030 horizon and includes specific and detailed funding commitments through to 2025. Despite the continuing difficulties presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, most of our partners have made good progress. Because the new strategy is grounded in continuity rather than change, most of our grantees have been able to continue their work with renewed confidence, which is valuable at a time of general uncertainty.

For example, the International Road Assessment Programme (iRAP), with its medium-term funding secure and enhanced, has been able to focus on cultivating relationships with development bank and government partners, as in Brazil where iRAP safety protocols were for the first time included in federal road concession. The fact that the winning bid for the $2.5 billion, thirty-five year concession, made by consortium EcoRodovias/GLP, gave such emphasis to integral safety measurement is significant and a sign of the culture change which iRAP and the wider global road safety community are effecting. In 2021 iRAP also focused on harnessing the potential of machine learning and big data, developing its AI-RAP offering which could dramatically scale the ability of road authorities, insurance companies and others to map safety attributes and performance within the road system.

But there are also innovations in the new strategy. For example, a new Advocacy Hub for safe streets has been launched to support the policy change needed to limit speeds to 30 km/h (20 mph) on streets where children walk, live and play. The Advocacy Hub, based within the FIA Foundation’s Child Health Initiative, is supporting organisations across the world engaged in policy change activities to secure safe, low-speed streets below 30km/h where pedestrians, particularly children and youth, mix with motorised traffic. With a base fund of €15m over five years, it is intended to deliver on the Child Health Initiative’s Manifesto 2030: Safe & Healthy Streets for Children, Youth & Climate, launched at the Stockholm Ministerial Conference on Road Safety in 2020.

The Advocacy Hub has identified an initial portfolio of interventions, including ‘Persuader’ campaigns aiming for specific legislative and regulatory change; ‘Pathfinder’ projects developing an enabling environment for policy change; and support for global coalitions building capacity and awareness. Partners include UNICEF, UN Environment, the Global Alliance of NGOs for Road Safety, YOURS – Youth for Road Safety, and a range of regional and national NGOs. A special fund has also been set up to support ‘Star Rating for Schools’ projects and advocacy by FIA clubs.

Ten FIA auto clubs received Foundation grant funding in 2021 to deliver projects protecting children and young people, particularly on their journeys to school, through the FIA School Assessment Programme. The FIA Programme is delivered with the support and expertise of the Star Ratings for School Assessments (SR4S) developed by iRAP. SR4S is an evidence-based tool for measuring, managing and

Trustees Report: Strategic Report

communicating the risk children are exposed to on their daily journey to school. It supports quick interventions that save lives and prevent serious injuries from day one. Some of the clubs are complementing their school assessment projects by using a tool developed by the Canadian Automobile Association (CAA) designed to be the first simple step in assessing the safety of road user behaviour in a school zone. Data collection can be completed easily on a phone or tablet and can be shared with stakeholders such as school staff, road safety advocates and local government.

The 10 FIA clubs are working in-country to support safe streets with a range of interventions and programmes in: Colombia by Touring Y Automóvil Club de Colombia (AAC); Croatia by Hrvatski Autoklub (HAK): Moldova by Automobil Club Din Moldova (ACM); Nigeria by Automobile and Touring Club of Nigeria (ATCN); Panama by Asociación Automovilística De Touring Y Deportes De Panama (ASAI); Tanzania by Automobile Association of Tanzania (AAT); Uganda by Federation of Motor Sports Club of Uganda (FMU); Uruguay by Automobile Club del Uruguay (ACU); Zambia by Zambia Motor Sports Association (ZMSA); and a Georgia based project with FIA Foundation Partner Eastern Alliance for Safe and Sustainable Transport (EASST). Some of these clubs are receiving additional funding from the Foundation’s Advocacy Hub to expand or enhance their projects. For example, the potential of Advocacy Hub interventions was demonstrated in Mozambique in November 2021. The government – represented by the Maputo Municipal Council; the Services of Social Affairs, Maputo City; Maputo City Government; INATRO (National Institute of Road Transport); ANE (National Road Administration) and; the Mozambique Road Fund – the World Bank, the FIA Foundation, the Automovel Touring Clube de Mozambique and the non-profit Amend, an Advocacy Hub partner, joined forces to deliver lifesaving infrastructure improvements and speed regulation changes around A Luta Continua primary and neighbouring schools in Maputo.

After consultations with members of the school and community – including pupils and teachers – and the Maputo Municipal Assembly, improvements including footpaths, speed humps, zebra crossings, and more were designed and installed around and near A Luta Continua primary and neighbouring schools. Additionally, speed limits were reduced to 30km/h around the schools.

The infrastructure improvements and speed regulations are intended to highlight the kind of improvements that are being designed and built into roads near schools in Mozambique on projects financed by the Work Bank. All the partners in this project at A Luta Continua primary school are working together on World Bank financed projects such as the Integrated Feeder Roads project in Zambezia and Nampula provinces and the forthcoming 10-year rehabilitation of the N1 highway where dozens of schools could benefit from the same lifesaving measures that have been demonstrated to deliver ‘streets for life’.

Streets for Life

To build a global political coalition for the kind of infrastructure and speed management changes implemented in Maputo, a call for ‘Streets for Life, for People and Planet’ is at the centre of the second Decade of Action for Road Safety, which aims to halve road traffic deaths and serious injuries by 2030. A global ‘Streets for Life’ campaign, largely devised and led by the FIA Foundation’s advocacy and design teams, was launched in May 2021 to mark UN Global Road Safety Week. The campaign published a Call to Action urging governments and city leaders to adopt an urban speed limit of 30km/h where traffic and people mix.

Signatories of the Call to Action included many UN agency heads, government ministers, mayors, members of the FIA High Level Panel for Road Safety, and NGO leaders from across the world. An online event produced by the FIA Foundation, featuring speakers including UN Deputy Secretary General

Trustees Report: Strategic Report

Amina Mohammed; Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the World Health Organization; Michael Bloomberg; UN Special Envoy for Road Safety Jean Todt; Maimunah Mohd Sharif, Executive Director of UN HABITAT; and the FIA Foundation’s Chairman Lord Robertson of Port Ellen promoted the Call to Action.

The Stockholm Declaration, adopted by governments in 2020, made 30km/h its flagship recommendation in recognition of the critical role low speed can play not only in achieving the 2030 SDG road traffic injury target, but also in enabling many other policy goals. A new Global Plan for the Decade of Action, published in October 2021, also makes low speed a central call. The Streets for Life campaign is intended to build momentum to the UN High Level Meeting on Road Safety, in June 2022, and beyond – holding political leaders accountable for specific action to slow traffic and share the road.

Securing funding, building alliances

Amongst the commitments for which governments should be accountable is financing, including international catalytic financing. Unfortunately, this has been lacking. While Bloomberg Philanthropies has seeded the field with circa $500 million in grant funding since 2009, and the FIA Foundation and other private philanthropies like Fondation Botnar have also played our part, bilateral funding has been very limited. We have helped to launch both the Global Road Safety Facility (in 2006) and the UN Road Safety Fund (in 2018) to try to develop a locus for multi-donor collaboration. In 2021 the Foundation met its commitment to provide $10 million in start-up funding to the UN Road Safety Fund, a contribution that has been matched by all the other donors combined. The Fund has launched more than twenty projects, some of which are already demonstrating good results, and in December 2021, at the preparatory session for the High Level Meeting, a new replenishment was announced to help kickstart the Second Decade of Action.

Alongside our support for financing of road safety at the global level, the Foundation was actively promoting stronger focus on spending dollars wisely in one of the most influential countries in the world. As a new United States Administration took office in Washington D.C. in early 2021, the FIA Foundation partnered with the Johns Hopkins University, Bloomberg School of Public Health and the Institute for Transportation Engineers to convene a Safe System Consortium, a group of 25 road safety leaders from transportation, public health, government, and academia, to draft recommendations for United States federal Safe System policy.

The consensus report focused on the benefits of the Safe System approach for racial equity and included 34 recommendations for planning, funding, and implementation. The report launch, in May 2021, was moderated by former NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind, now at the FIA Foundation-supported New Mobility Initiative at Johns Hopkins. Additional funding has been secured from AAA Foundation for future consortiums. The report was delivered to the US Congress in time to be influential in helping to shape a new sweeping one-trillion dollar policy proposal, which then became a bi-partisan Infrastructure Act.

The Act marks the first time that federal road policy explicitly supports the Safe System approach and this endorsement is anticipated to have far-reaching implications for adoption. Several life-saving Consortium recommendations have been integrated into the Act, including biennial Vulnerable Road User Assessments and road changes (consistent with the safe systems approach) to address gaps; funding traffic calming, speed reduction and road improvements to separate vehicles from pedestrians and cyclists; funding Safe Routes to School infrastructure improvements and annual financial support to States for Vision Zero.

This was a great achievement for US road safety campaigners. But despite being included in the Sustainable Development Goals, since 2015, road safety has remained a peripheral issue for the global development community. This is perhaps unsurprising, given the many other urgent demands requiring attention and assistance. The Foundation’s approach, in part, has been to seek alliances with related coalitions, for example on climate change, sustainable cities and non-communicable diseases, with the goal of demonstrating the relevance of action on road safety for related issues and the potential for cofunding. One of these issues is adolescent health and well-being, and since 2018, when the Foundation published its ‘Unfinished Journey’ report, we have been building common ground with a diverse range of child and adolescent health and public health organisations to argue an campaign for a funded adolescent and youth policy framework, including the leading global killer of young people – road crashes – to be launched with a UN Summit of world leaders.

In November 2021, in large part due to the campaigning and organising of the coalition the Foundation helped to assemble, the UN agreed to organise a Heads of State and Government plenary on issues affecting young people in 2025. Ahead of this, in September 2023, a focus on youth will be key part of the SDG Progress Summit. This is a significant achievement and vindication of four years of concerted advocacy by the Foundation. The UN General Assembly resolution states that action is urgently needed to coordinate multi-sectoral investments on a range of youth priorities, including - in its broadest sense - safety. It is clear that this new youth process offers the best opportunity yet for the road safety and sustainable mobility communities to be involved, from the start and the ground up, in crafting a policy framework which includes action on mobility and stands a good chance of becoming a development priority.

Climate action at COP26

One of the main drivers of development policy, and increasingly most other areas of policy too, is the climate emergency. The Foundation was at the heart of many discussions and debates at the COP26 Climate Summit in Glasgow in November 2021, raising the importance of the changes needed in the road transport sector as it rises in prominence on the global climate action agenda.

Our Global Fuel Economy Initiative (GFEI) launched a new report ‘Securing global fleet transformation: GFEI's ZERO Pathway’, which set out why a radical global policy shift towards far greater support for fleet electrification and fuel efficiency improvement across all markets is essential if the global targets for zero emission transport by 2050 are to be met. The report was launched at a joint GFEI and International Transport Forum event ‘Driving Implementation Actions and Turning Targets into a Transformation’ which also heard from ministers and GFEI partners from leading institutions including the UN Environment Programme and the International Energy Agency.

A GFEI Working Paper 'Vehicle fuel economy in major markets 2005-2019' was also launched at COP26. The paper showed that average annual light duty vehicle fuel consumption fell by just 0.9% between 2017 and 2019 - far less than the 1.8% annual average reduction between 2010 and 2015. These stalling vehicle improvements are also far below the levels of progress needed to meet the Paris emission targets. Increasing vehicle weight and power were a major impediment to further improvement - SUVs made up 44% of all light duty sales in 2019, which has eroded up to 40% of improvements in fuel economy. A core finding of the report is the significance of the right policy in securing improvements.

The Foundation was also represented at a wide range of events examining many of the factors which impact transport and the decarbonisation agenda, including a UNFCCC ‘Just Transition’ panel discussing equity in transport; an International Transport Forum event on gender equality in decarbonising transport, and a Global Alliance – Cities for Children event, organised by the Foundation, on youth and

climate, attended by UK transport minister Trudy Harrison MP. This event included a strong active mobility theme, making the case for ‘Streets for Life, Streets for Climate’, a good example of how the Foundation’s policy agendas interweave.

Vision Zero on road and track

Another example of interweaving is the adoption of the ‘vision zero’ safe system approach, refusing to tolerate death or serious injury, by our partners on both road and track. The Towards Zero Foundation, which manages the Global New Car Assessment Programme, has played a key role in defining safe systems policy for vehicles, and putting it into practice. Supported by our Foundation, as well as by Bloomberg Philanthropies, Global NCAP has succeeded in transforming the safety market in South America, India, SE Asia and now in South Africa. 2021 saw the first five-star car crash tested in South Africa, the Mahindra XUV300. The car, produced in India, was crash tested by Global NCAP at the ADAC laboratory in Germany and, following a compliance review, had the rating confirmed for the cars on sale in South Africa. The fact that an Indian car, exported to Africa, is achieving five-star safety is itself testament to the work of Global NCAP. Since 2014, when Global NCAP’s ‘Safer Cars for India’ campaign began, the safety performance of home-produced Indian cars has dramatically improved. In October 2021 the Tata Punch became just the latest five-star car to be tested.

In motor sport too, the safe system approach has guided safety policy for many years. This became even more explicit in April 2021, when the FIA - the governing body for motor sport - launched a Vision Zero initiative, committed to preventing death and serious injury at all levels of competition and across all disciplines of motor sport worldwide, particularly at the national, club and other grassroots competition levels where almost all fatalities occur. The initiative is supported by the FIA Foundation through our funding for the FIA’s safety, research and ASN (national sporting authority) programmes.

The Vision Zero Initiative focuses on identifying risk factors and developing cooperation with ASNs and local organisations to implement and support measures to mitigate those risks. Using a Global Impact Data Analysis Tool, every fatal motor sport accident around the world at both professional and amateur level is reviewed to build a detailed understanding of measures required at every level to protect drivers, guide policy, allocate resources, prioritise research projects and identify systemic risks. Analysis of incidents over the last six years shows a steady decline of fatalities, from 54 in 2015 to 41 in 2019 according to the FIA Safety Department World Accident Data Base. Competition deaths fell to 17 in 2020. However, this was primarily due to the cancellation of many sporting events as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Unrestricted funds

The Foundation’s unrestricted activities are primarily funded by the returns achieved by the investment portfolio. Investment income has decreased by €298,000 during the year (see note 5).

Investment income returns account for 32.1% (2020: 43.7%) of our cash requirement for the year, before exceptional withdrawals. Returns achieved are due to the asset allocation decisions of our investment managers, with a focus on investment in high quality assets with strong historical performance and good dividend yields. Approximately one third of the share portfolio is invested in a pooled vehicle where income is credited directly to the fund (see note 5 to the accounts). However, each manager is assessed on a total return basis and fund managers are free to provide their share of the requested withdrawal from net income, or from capital or from a combination of the two.

Trustees Report: Strategic Report

Expenditure and Charitable Activities

Total expenditure for the year was €20,941,000 (2020: €22,855,000). Expenditure covers four main areas: Safety environment and mobility; Motor sport safety; Memberships and affiliations; and Representational activities and external communications. Expenditure is split between charitable activities, investment manager fees and support costs.

The majority of the Foundation’s expenditure is via the grant programme, although it does manage its own advocacy and research programmes to promote safe and sustainable mobility around the world to achieve the objective of safe, clean, fair and green mobility for all.

Grants Awarded

The total allocated to grants and internally managed projects (designated funds) was €18,649,000 (2020: €19,348,000). €17,039,000 (2020: €17,228,000) was allocated to our grant programmes, whilst €1,610,000 (2020: €2,120,000) was transferred to designated funds for internally managed projects.

41 (2020: 36) organisations benefitted from grants awarded during the year. Grants are disclosed, by recipient and project, in note 7.

^ The write back represents underutilised grants awarded in prior years.

Exceptional returns were achieved during the first quarter of 2018 and, as a result, the Board agreed to draw down an additional €5 million from the portfolio in March 2018, to extend the grant making programme during the period 2020 to 2021.

As noted in the Investment Policy and Performance section of this report in March 2018 the Board of Trustees agreed, in principle, to make exceptional withdrawals totalling USD 10 million over the three year period to 2021 to help catalyse wider fundraising efforts for the new United Nations Road Safety Trust Fund. The withdrawals were contingent on the UN fund being able to attract match funding from other sources. All of the USD 10 million has now been paid to the Fund.

To support efforts to tackle the COVID-19 emergency, the Foundation’s Board of Trustees agreed in March 2021 to undertake an exceptional €1 million (2020: €2.4 million) round of grants and donations (see note 7).

In addition the Board also agreed a €1 million exceptional withdrawal to facilitate the FIA Safe and Affordable Helmets campaign and related motorcycle activity. €450,000 was committed during 2021 with the remaining €550,000 available for grants in 2022 (see note 7).

The withdrawal for 2022 has been set at €23 million comprising €20 million to fund our annual grants programme and administrative costs, and €3 million for exceptional grants including €1 million to support the humanitarian response to assist Ukraine’s refugees.

Designated funds

The Foundation continues to manage, support and develop road safety and environmental programmes. Funds are designated by the Trustees for specific purposes to meet the Foundation’s objectives.

Designations, by project, are disclosed in note 20. The balance carried forward on designated funds will be utilised during the forthcoming year.

Other costs and overheads

The Foundation monitors and reviews support and indirect costs on a quarterly basis to ensure they are in line with expectations and budgets. Due to the effect of COVID-19, the Foundation implemented a work from home policy from March 2020 which continued into 2021. There has been a limited phased return to the office in 2021 which together with holding meetings in a hybrid (live and electronic) format led to a 9.7% increase of overhead costs (prior to fixed asset revaluations and other exchange rate gains or losses) compared to 2020.

Grant making and monitoring policy for unrestricted funds The Foundation has established its grant policy to achieve its objects for public benefit.

Grants are awarded in the following categories: Safety, environment and mobility; Motor sport safety; and Memberships and affiliations. The aim of the Foundation is to promote research, disseminate the results of research and providing information on matters of public interest which may include road safety, automobile technology, the protection and preservation of human life and public health, transport and public mobility, the safety of motor sport and the protection of the environment.

The Foundation invites applications for grants from organisations which it considers to be appropriate strategic partners and whose activities meet the aims stated above. As the result of a Strategic Review conducted in 2011 the Foundation no longer accepts unsolicited applications. Applications are considered by the Programmes Committee which makes recommendations to the Board of Trustees.

All the Foundation's activities must fall within the Foundation's Objects and clearly be undertaken for the public benefit. The Foundation follows the OECD’s DAC Criteria for Evaluating Development Assistance to evaluate the recipient's performance and to guide the Foundation's future funding decisions and priorities. The Foundation wishes to use its grant making activity to be as catalytic as possible and secure positive outcomes that significantly exceed the grant amount provided to the activity. By assessing such leverage effects, the Foundation will determine an overall performance measure of the Activity. The Activity Evaluation Criteria are as follows:

20

Trustees Report: Strategic Report

The aim of the evaluation is to assist our annual and multi-annual grants beneficiaries to meet their activity goals and our charitable objectives. The Foundation may suspend payment of all or part of any annual grant instalment if the recipient fails to receive a satisfactory evaluation on an annual basis.

2021 was the first year for the majority of the current multi-year grant agreements. During the 2021 evaluation process multi-year recipients received a satisfactory evaluation and hence the next year of funding will be made available in 2022.

The long-term objective of the Trustees is to “preserve the capital base in real terms for as long as is practicable whilst meeting the needs of the beneficiaries at a sustainable level”. To achieve the objective of preserving the capital base the Foundation aims to ensure that the value of the investment share portfolio is equal to the expected growth of the original donation from the FIA once the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for Europe is applied.

Trustees Report: Strategic Report

During the early part of 2022 the Foundation inevitably suffered from the turbulence in the markets resulting from geo-political uncertainty following the invasion of Ukraine. By late May 2022 the value had fallen by 9.6% compared to the vale at the end of 2021, prior to withdrawals.

The Foundation has adopted an expenditure policy to balance the needs of our beneficiaries with our charitable activities. As reported in 2020 the level of expenditure rose to approximately €20 million during 2021. This enabled the Foundation to extend the grant making capacity in order to try to make a significant impact during these critical years of the SDG Decade of Action. This expenditure level is not excessive in comparison to the level of reserves and will enable it to continue to meet the needs of beneficiaries for the foreseeable future.

The investment policy described below has been formulated as a result of the aim of the reserves policy. Therefore, the majority of the reserves have been invested in assets which are used to generate incoming resources to fund grants, internally managed projects and support costs. The expected return is approximately 10.3%, based on the five year average total return achieved.

The Trustees have agreed to hold cash balances of a minimum of €20 million (approximately one years expenditure). The cash can be held by either the Foundation or by the Investment managers. This policy facilitates cash flow and helps prevent a forced sale of assets during periods of poor investment returns.

At the end of each year the Foundation assesses the level of unrestricted cash balances held (cash at bank and as part as of the investment portfolio) and outstanding commitments to determine the amount which will be requested from the portfolio during the following year. Unrestricted cash balances held were as follows:

Unrestricted Cash balances 2021

Cash at Bank 22,445
14,974
Cash held aspart of the investmentportfolio 5,479

Total 27,924

Cash balances held at the year end comply with the reserves policy of holding a minimum of €20 million.

Investment Policy and Performance

The performance of the investment portfolio is critical for the continued success of the Foundation and its ability to continue to fund grants.

Investment policy

The Foundation has the power to deposit or invest funds not immediately required for its purposes in, or upon, such investments, securities or property as the Trustees may think fit. The Trustees have the power to delegate the management of investments to a financial expert but must review the performance of the investments regularly.

22

Trustees Report: Strategic Report

The principal objective of the investment policy is to seek a total return to provide sufficient returns to fund the activities of the Foundation in the long term. The funding requirement is reviewed every 3 to 5 years. This is to balance the needs of both current and future beneficiaries and therefore the assets are invested for long term returns rather than to maximise short term income.

The Foundation’s policy is that all investments are externally managed by investment managers appointed by the Board of Trustees. The current investment managers of the Foundation are CCLA Investment Management Limited (CCLA), Investec Wealth and Investment Limited (Investec), and Sarasin and Partners LLP (Sarasin). Custodial services are provided by all of our managers as part of the management fee already paid. The Trustees have assessed that there is no increased investment risk of allowing each manager to act as custodian.

The investment policy adopted by the Investment Committee and Board of Trustees has been incorporated into the Statement of Investment Principles, which has been distributed to each investment manager, and is reviewed annually by the Investment Committee.

Investment are prohibited directly or indirectly in the following: tobacco companies or related businesses; and fossil fuel industries unless the company has a serious and externally validated carbon reduction plan in place or is “Paris Aligned”.

Investment managers have discretion to make all asset allocation decisions in order to achieve the following investment objective, as stated in the Statement of Investment Principles:

“The Trustees aim is to produce a total return from investment (shares and property) of the order of €20 million (approximately 5%) net of fees, charges and any irrecoverable tax. This should allow the Foundation to at least maintain the real value of the assets whilst funding annual expenditure. The real value of the assets will be calculated by comparing the value of the investment portfolio to the expected growth of the original donation once the Consumer Price index (CPI) for Europe is applied”.

Each manager is assessed on a total return basis and fund managers are free to provide their share of the requested withdrawal from net income, or from capital or from a combination of the two.

Performance of the managers is assessed by comparing the portfolio returns of each manager on a rolling basis. The results are reviewed by the Investment Committee on a quarterly basis.

Investment manager fees are calculated as a fixed percentage of the value of the portfolio. Fee rates range between 0.3 and 0.4 basis points. Fee levels are closely monitored on a quarterly basis by the members of the Investment Committee.

Investment managers are permitted to use derivatives to ameliorate the risk associated with holding shares in different currencies, and as a stop loss on equity positions within agreed limits. The managers have discretion regarding the level of derivatives that can be used but they must comply with HM Revenue and Customs guidelines. Currently derivatives are utilised by one manager, Sarasin, and take the form of options.

The total return for the year was 20.1% (2020: 6.1%) with individual manager returns ranging from 18.3% to 21%. The return was slightly disappointing due to underweight positions in energy and technology sectors when compared to general market conditions.

The total withdrawal for the year of €22,580,000 (2020: €19,093,000) comprised €17,210,000 (2020: €13,345,000) to fund grant payments and overheads for 2021 and exceptional withdrawals of €5,370,000 (2020: €5,748,000).

Despite these exceptional withdrawals the portfolio met the reserves policy target of increasing the value of the fund by European CPI during the year.

All asset allocation decisions are taken by our investment managers. Diversification is by asset class, investment manager and investment style.

Equities remain the asset class of choice for all managers at this time.

Internal Control and Risk Management

The Trustees are responsible for the Foundation’s systems of internal control and effectiveness. No system of internal control can provide absolute assurance against material misstatement or loss. However, the Foundation’s system is designed to provide the Board of Trustees with reasonable assurance that there are proper procedures in place, and they are operating effectively.

The key elements of the internal control system are:

The risk management process follows three main requirements or sources of guidance: the Charity Governance Code; and the Charity Commission’s “Charity and Risk Management” (CC26) and the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting and Reporting by Charities”; and to fully implement the Foundation’s anti-bribery and corruption policy it is necessary to carry out an anti-bribery and corruption risk assessment. The Foundation developed an anti-fraud policy statement and response plan and continued to carry out its annual risk assessment and partner evaluation process. In 2021 it also developed the following: a sanctions policy; safeguarding policy and privacy policies, the latter in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR); and, updated its due diligence processes to ensure the Foundation is taking all possible measures to mitigate against the risk of breaching sanctions anywhere in the world.

The Foundation’s risk management matrix is now divided into four major risks areas: financial; operational; reputational; and bribery and corruption, which are assessed annually and provided with a ‘traffic light’ monitoring system, red indicating a significant risk to the Foundation which should be continually monitored by management; amber a medium level risk which should be monitored by management on a periodic basis e.g. quarterly; and green a low risk which should reassessed on an annual basis.

Under the major risk areas above the major risks comprise:

The Board of Trustees and the Audit Committee review the major risks to which the Foundation is exposed on an annual basis and can confirm that all reasonable measures are being taken and systems

have been established to control or mitigate the effect of these risks on the achievement of the charity’s objectives. The Foundation also ensures it has comprehensive insurance cover to assist with the management of risks.

The Trustees have assessed the potential risks in relation to the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union and believe that the risks to the Foundation are low.

Principal risks assessed as medium or higher-level risks are as follows:

Bribery and Corruption

Country risk: The Foundation’s main partners are registered in the following countries: United Kingdom; USA; Kenya; France; and Switzerland. The Foundation uses the Transparency International Corruption Perceptions Index (TICPI) for an indication of the corruption risk in a particular territory. The higher the score, the “cleaner” the country. A score of below 50 indicates that public institutions in that country need to be more transparent and powerful officials more accountable. The decision to continue operations in a particular territory is one of management. Enhanced procedures and controls must be adopted when undertaking activities in the higher risk jurisdictions. All of the countries listed where our partners work have a score greater than 70, except for: Kenya (31); South Africa (44); Tanzania (38): and Vietnam (36) (2020 scores). Given our robust anti-bribery and corruption and anti-fraud policies and Fraud Response Plan, and our new sanctions monitoring and compliance work and the fact that we only work with known partners with an interest in protecting consumers and public safety, the Foundation is comfortable with these scores.

29

Trustees Report: Strategic Report

In all of the bribery and corruption risk areas (sector; transaction, activity opportunity; activity partner; and internal), the Foundation has in place policies and procedures to ensure it is as well protected as it can be. Such policies and procedures include a Compliance Officer; the need for all partners to acknowledge our anti-bribery and corruption and anti-fraud and sanctions policies; training for all employees who may face demand for facilitation payments; gifts and hospitality rules.

Charity Status

The FIA Foundation (Foundation) is registered in England and Wales as a charity, number 1088670, and as a company limited by guarantee, number 4219306. The liability of the Trustees is limited to a sum not exceeding £10. The Foundation is governed by its Articles of Association. The directors of the Foundation are its Trustees for the purposes of charity law. The terms of the charity’s Articles of Association exclude the power to raise funds by the means of taxable trading, where such trading falls outside its charitable objects.

Charity Objects

The objects of the Foundation are the promotion of public safety and public health, the protection and preservation of human life and the conservation, protection and improvement of the physical and natural environment in particular by:

The Foundation is primarily a grant making organisation although it does manage some projects internally. The grant making policy is included in the Strategic Report.

Grants awarded and activities undertaken directly by the Foundation fall under the following categories:

Safety, environment and mobility

This is the work carried out to fulfil our first object of “promoting research, disseminating the results of research and providing information on matters of public interest which may include road safety, automobile technology, the protection and preservation of human life and public health, transport and public mobility and the protection of the environment”. Our work in representational activities (see below) also fulfils this objective.

Motor sport safety

This is the work carried out to fulfil our second objective of “promoting improvement in the safety of motor sport”. Our research, memberships and affiliations expenditure (see below) also fulfil this objective.

Memberships and affiliations

As described above these are research, memberships and affiliations to achieve our objectives.

Representational activities and external communications

As described above these are activities undertaken directly by the Foundation to achieve our first objective.

Trustees Report: Structure, governance & management

Trustees

The Foundation’s Trustees play a critical role in ensuring that the Foundation meets its objects of promoting road safety, sustainable mobility and motor sport safety. Their duties are set out in the Foundation’s Articles of Association and are reinforced by the current Trustees’ Code of Conduct. The principal involvement of Trustees is through participation in the Board of Trustees and its subsidiary bodies, namely the Executive; Programmes; Investment; and Audit Committees.

Trustees and Committee membership

Under the Articles of Association, the Board of Trustees must maintain a minimum membership of nine and a maximum membership of 15. This figure includes not less than two directors independent from any member of the charity, the President of the FIA ex officio , and three directors nominated by the FIA. The independent directors and all non-FIA nominated Trustees are elected by an ordinary resolution by members at the Annual General Meeting (AGM). One third (or the number nearest one third) of these Trustees must retire at each AGM. Other than the President of the FIA, trustees are elected for a maximum of two terms of three years. The Board of Trustees may permit a trustee to stand for election for a third consecutive term of office if it is satisfied that there is a particular need for that trustee’s skills and experience on the Board of Trustees, or, in the case of the three FIA trustees, if the FIA requests such an extension.

Ms M Amoni, Ms M Yeoh and Messrs J Abed and A Gow retired from the Board at the AGM on 16 December 2021. Ms Yeoh was re-elected for a second term and Mr J Abed was re-elected for a third and final term. Ms M Amoni and Mr A Gow were ineligible for re-election having served three terms.

Dr Abou-Zeid and Mr Al Mannai were elected for a first term.

Mr M Ben Sulayem was elected as an ex officio Trustee following his election as FIA President on 17 December 2021. Mr J Todt retired from the Board as an ex officio Trustee following his retirement as FIA President on this date.

On 15 March 2022 the FIA exercised their entitlement to nominate three individuals to act as FIA Trustees and to remove the current nominated Trustees. As result Ms I Bokova, Mr A Markl and Mr A Sticchi Damiani resigned from the Board on 15 March 2022. Mr G Obando, Mr R Reid and Mr C Sanz de Barros were nominated as FIA Trustees and co-opted to the Board on 30 March 2022. They will be elected as full Trustees by the AGM in December in accordance with Articles of Association.

Mr G Braggiotti, Mr W Heping, Mr W Kraus, and Mr K Woodier are due to retire at the forthcoming AGM. Mr W Kraus and Mr K Woodier have served two terms and are eligible to offer themselves for a third and final term. Mr G Braggiotti and Mr W Heping have served one term and are eligible to offer themselves for a second term.

Mr G Obando, Mr R Reid and Mr C Sanz de Barros are due to retire as co-opted trustees at the forthcoming AGM and are eligible to offer themselves for election as full trustees.

Ms M Yeoh retired from the Board on 18 May 2022.

Mr J Abed served as a Trustee until he passed away on 2 June 2022.

Mr A Mitchell and Mr P Brasilico were co-opted to the Investment Committee on 22 June 2021.

Committees and meetings

The Board of Trustees meets three times a year. There are also four additional Trustee sub committees (the Executive Committee; the Programmes Committee; the Investment Committee; and the Audit Committee) which ordinarily meet a minimum of once a year. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, in 2021 the Board of Trustees held two of its meetings virtually in accordance with Article 42 (6) of the FIA Foundation’s Articles of Association: “ A board of trustees meeting may be held by suitable electronic means agreed by the trustees in which each participant may communicate with all other participants .” One meeting was hybrid. The sub Committees also all held their 2021 meetings virtually or in a hybrid format.

The terms of reference for each committee are:

Executive Committee: to review questions of governance or any other matter referred to it by the Chairperson or by the Board; to recommend the specification for the role of Trustee, to oversee the process of Trustee selection, and to review Trustee applications; and to support the Executive Director in the management of the Foundation’s Human Resources, to oversee the general terms and conditions of staff employment, and to approve general salary levels and specifically the remuneration of the Executive Director.

Programmes Committee: to review and propose the annual programme priorities, activities and expenditure of the Foundation for approval by the Board; to consider and recommend for Board approval future projects and programmes to be supported by the Foundation; and to apply the agreed evaluation criteria to the Foundation’s projects and programmes.

34

Trustees Report:

Structure, governance & management

The Programmes Committee meeting is now held the day before the Spring Board of Trustees meeting, so it is normal practice for most Trustees to attend this meeting.

Investment Committee: to propose and recommend to the Board the investment strategy and the Statement of Investment Principles to be adopted in managing the Foundation’s investment assets, including property and cash reserves; to select and, with the approval of the Board, to appoint independent fund managers to manage parts of those assets on a discretionary basis, to an agreed set of objectives and benchmarks; to monitor closely and report regularly to the Board the relative performance and charges of the individual fund managers, and of the fund as a whole, and to assist and support the Finance Director when required in all routine aspects of the management of the Foundation’s financial resources.

Audit Committee: to supervise and monitor on behalf of the Board the annual audit of the Foundation’s Annual Financial Statements; to meet the Foundation’s auditors on the completion of the annual audit, and to approve on behalf of the Board the Audit Findings Document; to advise the Board on the appointment of the Foundation’s auditors and their fees; and to review annually the Foundation’s policies to minimise risk across its activities, including its internal controls and its obligations under the UK Bribery Act.

Induction and training of new Trustees

When a new Trustee is appointed, they receive the Foundation Governance handbook – Key Policies and Documents as induction which includes following documents:

They are also sent a copy of the Trustees’ Liability Insurance. Trustees also receive and are expected to have read the Charity Commission's publications: "CC3: The Essential Trustee: What you need to know", "A Guide to Conflicts of Interests" and “A Guide to Corporate Foundations’ as well as the Ministry of Justice Guidance on the UK Bribery Act 2010.

All Trustees must sign a Trustee declaration, declaring themselves fit and eligible to serve as a Trustee of the Foundation and complete and update, on an annual basis, a register of interests.

As the majority of our Trustees hail from our member organisations, they are generally already aware of the Foundation’s activities and familiar with the Foundation’s senior staff members. They are also all present or past senior executives of major organisations and thus comfortable with what is and is not

35

Trustees Report:

Structure, governance & management

expected of them in their role as Trustees. Training is therefore handled on an ad hoc basis and will be arranged for any Trustee if they request it.

Conflicts of interest

The Foundation has a policy on conflicts of interest which applies to Trustees, employees and members of the Foundation’s decision-making committees. When a Trustee has a material interest in any grant, investment or other matter being considered by the Foundation, that Trustee does not participate in the decision on that grant or other matter. The same principle applies to staff and members of committees who are able to influence the charity’s funding decisions.

Key management and personnel remuneration

The Trustees consider the Board of Trustees and the Executive Director as the key management personnel of the charity in charge with directing and controlling the charity and running and operating the charity on a day to day basis.

All Trustees give their time freely and no Trustee remuneration was paid in the year. Details of Trustee expenses and related party transactions are disclosed in notes 11 and 25 respectively.

The pay of the charity’s Executive Director is reviewed annually by the Executive Committee and is increased in line with inflation. The remuneration is also benchmarked with charities of a similar size and activity to ensure that the remuneration is not out of line with that paid for similar roles.

Trustees responsibilities for the financial statements

The Trustees (who are also directors of the Foundation for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report (including the Strategic Report) and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the Trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period.

In preparing these Financial Statements, the Trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable

36

Trustees Report: Structure, governance & management

company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

As far as each of the Trustees is aware:

The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Other Matters

The Strategic Report

The Trustees confirm that in approving these financial statements they are also approving the Strategic Report, which is contained within the Trustees’ Report, in their capacity as Trustees and Directors of the Foundation.

Public Benefit Reporting

The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities and setting the grant making policy.

COVID-19

The Foundation’s secretariat, based in the UK, France and the US, continued to work from home during those countries’ respective lockdowns. Many of our programmatic partners have been similarly affected by the emergency, and the Foundation provided no-cost extensions for programming for those who have needed it. Most of the international processes and events that the Foundation monitors or engages with have been affected, with cancellations or shortened agendas taken online. The Foundation has actively engaged with policy issues arising from the pandemic, including urban mobility issues in a time of physical distancing.

To support efforts to tackle the COVID-19 emergency, the Foundation’s Board of Trustees agreed in March 2021 to undertake an exceptional €1 million (2020: €2.4 million) round of grants and donations.

Fund-raising

The Foundation is not actively engaged in fund raising activities.

Social Media

The Foundation utilises social media as a core part of its communications activities. Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube are the primary channels. They have enabled the Foundation to communicate and engage with organisations and individuals in order to meet both advocacy and programmatic objectives. Through social media, the Foundation has been able to target its communications effectively and also connect with a wider audience. Social media has been particularly important in efforts to engage with a wide range of organisations and individuals influential in the global public health

37

Trustees Report:

Structure, governance & management

community. Communications on social media are managed with appropriate diligence and care. They are controlled by the Deputy Directors and Executive Director to ensure that the Foundation’s objectives are met, and risks managed.

Independent Auditors Report to the Members of the FIA Foundation

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of FIA Foundation (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 December 2021 which comprise Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. 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).

In our opinion, the financial statements:

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 charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including 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 the 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 charitable company'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 trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 audit or otherwise appears to be

39

Independent Auditors Report to the Members of the FIA Foundation

materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors’ report included within the trustees’ report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) 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 charitable company’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 charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

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

40

Independent Auditors Report to the Members of the FIA Foundation

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 Financial Reporting Council’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 and on the Financial Reporting Council’s website, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud.

We obtain and update our understanding of the entity, its activities, its control environment, and likely future developments, including in relation to the legal and regulatory framework applicable and how the entity is complying with that framework. Based on this understanding, we identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. This includes consideration of the risk of acts by the entity that were contrary to applicable laws and regulations, including fraud.

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, including fraud, we designed procedures which included:

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement arising from fraud is also higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to

41

Independent Auditors Report to the Members of the FIA Foundation

the charitable company's members 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 charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Notes to the Accounts

1 Principal accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for our property which has been valued at market (fair) value. They comply with the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (“the Charities SORP FRS 102”) preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), effective 1 January 2019, Financial Reporting Standard 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” and the Companies Act 2006.

Company Status

The FIA Foundation is registered in England and Wales as a private company limited by guarantee. The liability of the Trustees is limited to a sum not exceeding £10. The registered office is 60 Trafalgar Square, London, WC2N 5DS. The Foundation meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.

The principal accounting policies for the charitable company are set out below.

Functional and presentational currency

The functional and presentational currency of the Foundation is the Euro. This is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Foundation operates.

Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as the Trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist.

The Trustees have considered the level funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure from the 12 months from authorising the financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.

Significant judgements and estimates

Preparation of the financial statements requires the Trustees to make significant judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities not readily apparent for other sources. The key judgements and sources of estimation that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements include:

Property Both fixed assets land and buildings and the investment property are stated at
fair value. The value of this property is affected by general market movements.
See notes 14 and 15 for further information.
Listed The most significant area of uncertainty that effects income and the carrying
Investments value of assets are the level of investment return and the performance of the
investment markets. See the Investment Policy and Performance, and Internal
Control and Risk Management sections of the Strategic report and note 15.

Notes to the Accounts

Incoming resources

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when the Foundation is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable certainty. More specific details relating to each category of income are shown below:

Grants Grant income is recognised when the charity has met the conditions of receipt,
is entitled to the funds, and the amount can be measured reliably.
Donations All monetary donations are included in full when receivable, provided that there
are no donor-imposed restrictions as to the timing of the related expenditure.
In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of
performance before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred
until any precondition is met.
Investment income Investment income, including associated tax recoveries, but with the exception
of income receivable in respect of fixed interest securities, is recognised when
receivable. Income receivable in respect of fixed interest securities is
recognised on the effective interest method.
Rental income Rental income is recognised when receivable,on a straight-line basis.

Resources expended

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. All expenses including support costs and governance costs are allocated or apportioned to the applicable expenditure headings.

Resources expended comprise:

Raising funds: This includes investment manager fees, staff salaries and other costs directly
Cost of managing attributable to the management of the investment portfolio.
investments
Costs of charitable The charitable activities flow from the Charity’s vision and purpose, which are
activities highlighted in the Trustees’ Report. The primary charitable activities as
disclosed in the SOFA are as follows: Safety, environment and mobility; Motor
sport safety; Memberships and affiliations; and Representational activities and
external communications.

The costs of charitable activities include grants made to external organisations and direct expenditure. The accounting treatment for these are as follows:

Grants payable Grants payable are recognised in the financial statements in the year in which
they are approved and such approval has been communicated to the recipients,
except to the extent that it is subject to conditions that enable the Foundation
to revoke the award.
Direct expenditure This is expenditure made from designated reserves relating to internally
managedprojects. Details of costs can be found in note 8.
Support and These are shared and indirect costs associated with the main activities of the
indirect costs Foundation. Details of costs can be found in note 10.

47

Notes to the Accounts

Allocation of Costs which relate directly to an employee are allocated against the activities
support costs they undertake. Support and indirect costs are apportioned on the basis of the
number of full-time equivalent staff.
Governance costs Governance costs include external audit and legal advice on governance
matters, directors and officers insurance, Trustees’ expenses and an
apportionment of shared and indirect costs. Governance costs are apportioned
on the basis of the number of full-time equivalent staff. Details of costs can be
found in note 10.
Irrecoverable VAT The irrecoverable VAT element is included in the expense category to which it
relates.
Fund accounting
The Foundation holds the followingfunds:
Restricted funds Donations and other incoming resources received or generated for expenditure
for specifiedpurposes as laid down bythe donor(see note 21).
General funds Donations and other incoming resources received or generated for expenditure
(unrestricted on the general objectives of the charity.
funds)
Designated funds General funds which have been designated for specific purposes by the
Trustees.

On occasion the Programmes Committee will recommend the transfer of monies between funds where grants have been underutilised by recipients. The transfer of these monies is subsequently approved by the Board of Trustees.

Property

The Foundation owns one property that is in mixed functional and investment use. Areas of the building occupied by the Foundation are classified as fixed assets, whilst areas occupied by third-party tenants are classified as an investment property. All property is valued at the estimated market (fair) value in the native currency at the balance sheet date and translated at the exchange rate ruling at the year end. The valuation is pro-rated according to floor space occupied by the Foundation and third-party tenants.

The property is valued annually either by a full valuation, which is undertaken every five years, or a desktop valuation in the intervening years.

Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Freehold land and buildings are measured at fair value at the date of revaluation less impairment losses. All gains and losses arising from the revaluation of land and buildings are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise.

Other fixed assets are capitalised at cost where their acquisition value is greater than €750 and are stated at cost net of depreciation. Depreciation is calculated to write down the cost of other fixed assets by equal annual instalments over their estimated useful economic lives, calculated on an annual basis. The rates applicable are:

Fixtures and fittings 20%
Computer equipment 33 1/3%

Notes to the Accounts

Investments

The Foundation holds both property and listed investments as part of the investment portfolio. The accounting treatment for these are as follows:

Property Investment property includes one property that is mixed functional and
investment use. The accounting policyforproperties is stated above.
Listed Listed investments are valued at their market value in their native currency at
Investments the end of the financial year and are translated at the rate ruling at this date.
Cash held as part of an investment portfolio, as a monetary asset, is translated
at the closingrate.
Derivatives Investment managers are permitted to use derivatives to ameliorate the risk
associated with holding shares in different currencies, and as a stop loss on
equity positions within agreed limits. The managers have discretion regarding
the level of derivatives that can be used but they must comply with HM
Revenue and Customs guidelines. Currently derivatives take the form of
forward currency contracts or options. The accounting treatment for derivatives
follows that of listed investments.
Gains and losses Net gains and losses arising on revaluations and disposals during the period are
on investments included in the SOFA. Realised gains and losses arise on the sale of investments
and represent the difference between the valuation at the beginning of the
financial year and the proceeds from the sale of the investment. Unrealised
gains and losses consist of the movement in the market value of investments on
an annual basis. All gains and losses are taken to the SOFA as they arise.
Realised and unrealised investmentgains and losses are combined in the SOFA
Revaluation The excess of market valuations over the cost of investments is included within
reserve the revaluation reserve.

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are value at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts. Accrued income represents income receivable in respect of fixed interest securities.

Cash and liquid assets

Cash at bank and cash holdings within the investment portfolio includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less.

The Trustees consider both cash held within its own bank accounts and balances held by our Investment Managers when considering the liquidity of the Foundation.

Liabilities

Liabilities are recognised when there is a legal and constructive obligation committing the charity to the expenditure. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for trade discounts due.

Foreign currencies

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated at the rates ruling at the date of acquisition, or average rate if not materially different. Exchange

Notes to the Accounts

differences are dealt with in the SOFA. Exchange gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate income or expenditure category. The exchange rates ruling at the balance sheet date were as follows:

Currency 2021 2020
Sterling €1:£ €1:£0.839530 €1:£0.899853
US Dollar €1:$ €1:$1.132880 €1:$1.227393

Taxation

The charity is an exempt charity within the meaning of schedule 3 of the Charities Act 2011 and is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1, Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK Corporation tax purposes.

Employee benefits

Short term employee benefits, including holiday pay, are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

The Foundation recognises an accrual for accumulated annual leave accrued by employees as a result of services rendered in the current period for which employees can carry forward and use within the next year. The accrual is measured at the salary cost of the respective employee in relation to the period of absence.

Defined contribution scheme

The pension costs charged against the SOFA are the contributions payable to the schemes in respect of the accounting period. The Foundation has no liability beyond making its contribution and paying across deductions for employee contributions.

Leased assets

Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged to the SOFA on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
