This is done largely through engagement by Mission Secretaries In the form of strategic visits, participation in CVVM'S programmes, and tapping on CVVN'S resources - ideas, people, and funding. The General Secretary, Deputy General Secretary and Finance Secretary also engage with member churches, on such strategic issues, where their presence and input serve lo augment ancl enrich the work of Mission Secretaries. CVW Mission Secretaries organise consultations with member churches on programmes, financial management, and reporting,. and participate in different programmes of member churches, invited or initiated. During the first quarter of 2020, most of the six161 Regions held their Pre-Assemblies which provided space for member churches lo share their perspectives on the Assembly theme, share and listen lo stories from their contexts and participated in an orientation and training exercise in preparation for the Quadrennial Assembly, that was arranged to be held in Johannesburg, South Africa in June 2020. However, in view of Covid-19 pandemic, the Board subsequently decided to postpone the Assembly until 2021. Wrth the pandemic still prevailing, the Board decided lo cancel this 4-yearly Assembly event. Actlvltle$ In the Offi¢0 of thg General SocTgtary 5.3.1 Member Church Relations Member church relations is the means through which official visits, strategic conversations and engagement with mission thinking and praxis, and ongoing information sharing, with the churches, leadership, enriches mutual accompaniment and solidarity. In light of Covid-19, visits to member churches and other strategic face lo face engagements did not lake place as of February 2020. However, opportunities were grasped for online presence for workshops, mutual sharing and speaking engagements. The General Secretary and Mission Secretaries utilised the online platform on a regular basis to engage with member churches in all six regions and covering all 32 member churches, aimed al strengthening the partnership and furthering God's mission in the world. Several meaningful conversations occurred during the year, providing the Secretariat with opportunities to share in the shaping of strategic missional direction of member churches. The General Secretary and Mission Secretaries responded lo several speaking engagement opportunities, which included sermons, keynote addresses. greetings, and presentations on the work of CVVM, at Churches, General Assemblies and Synods. In this regard, CWM'S presence was not diminished in any significant way, nohvilhstanding the absen of physical gatherings and despite the disruptions caused by Covid-19.
COUNCIL FOR WORLD MISSION (UK) TRUSTEES, REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020 5.3.2 2020- 2029 Strategic Planning Process In 2018, the Board of Directors commissioned a special Strategy Planning Group to develop a strategic framework to inform and guide the work of CVVM for the period 2020-2029. The final report was presented lo the Board, and approved, in February 2020. The strategic framework outlines the key areas around which CVW should be thinking and planning for this decade. In 2020, CWM management and staff worked on the specific programmes and plans to give concreleness lo the framework. 5.3.3 Ecumenlcal Partnershlp and Solidarty Engagements Partnership within the world church is one of CWM'S major lenels. CWM engages in partnership and participation with international ecumenical mission organisalions by sharing people, ideas, and resources. Many of CWM'S programmes include ecumenic81 participation as a matter of principle and ils member churches and stsff also lake part in programme5 of other ecumenical organisations. Through such participation, CWM seeks to engage with and support our ecumenic81 partners in contributing to the development of missional thought and action in the wider church. CWM also benefits from the insights and expertise of the ecumenical community, some of which have a much widei scope of engagement than CWM. In 2020, some of such partnerships, the majority of which are ongoing, include the New International Financial & Economic Architecture. the Ecumenical Loan Fund, partnership with the World Communion of Reformed Churches on justice and related mi5sional issues. CVW jointly with WCC, Lutheran Wortd Federation and WCRC, organi5ed and launched the Zacchaeus Tax campaign in 2019, which is intended for completion in summer 2021. During 2020, the campaign continued and gained momentum. CWM also continued ils work on Theological Education on the Economy of Life with the support of a team of academics drawn from the ecumenical community, aimed at developing a curriculum on the Economy of Life lo be offered lo theological institutions 2nd member churches to build awareness on issues of finance and economy. The curriculum was finali5ed in 2020 and plans are afoot to launch a Master's programme on the Economy of Life, through the Union Theological Seminary in the Philippines, by summer of 2021. In response lo the Covid-19 pandemic, CWM established a Covid-19 Solidarity Fund of SGD1,300,000 to support member churches and partners in their response to the difficulties and disruptions experienced by their constituencies. This fund served to $upport member churches to respond to the internal ch811enges caused by the pandemic as well as lo enable churches and partners lo develop special projects in response to perceived needs in the wider community. In this regard SGD800,000 was dedicated to an outright 'Gift of Grace, to member churches, through which each of the 32 churches could acTrss SGD25,000,' and SGD500,000 was dedicated to 'Covid-19 Mission Initiatives, for which member churches and partners could apply for up lo SGD25.000 each in support of a proposal. The reports that we have reiVed so far all testify to the positive impact that such a fund is making on communities all around the world. 5.3A Communlcatlon In 2020. the role of communication proved lo be indispensable lo the continued operations of the Charity given the limited means of engagement of our programmatic strategy due lo the COVID-19 pandemic. During the year in review, the communicab'ons team helped lo create digital spaces for the Charity's work lo continue online. In addition lo enabling programmatic work, the team helped to facilitate the firsl-ever election of the new Board of Directors to be held electronically in the history of the organisalion. The team leveraged on the ncreased prominence of digital spaces and fully utilised CWM'S website, improved its presence on social media platforms and worked in partnership with Mission Secretaries on several productions for enhanced online programme delivery. The team further focussed on strengthening inlemal communication amongst the staff after physical office spaces were closed in keeping with physical distancing measures initiated by respective governments. The communications team created a microsile attached lo the CWM main web511e for churches across the world lo share experiences and learnings, in support of one another. INSIGHT magazine, the bi-monthly publication which the team launched in 2018, continues to gain both readership and content contributors who engage in a wide spectrum of issues of concern and interest. Beyond the communications team, CWM has been active in communicating through Mission Secretaries on various programmes,. through frequent correspondences tseeen the Office of the General Secretary and member churches,. and in partnership with ecumenical colleagues and programme participants who help to share our story. 12

Financial Review Financial Performance Overrfiew The financial results for the year reflect that total income increased marginally by 30/0 from £3.5m 2019 to £3.6m in 2020. The primary Sour of income is from interest and dividends eamed on the investment portfolio. Dividend and interest income increased marginally from £3.4m in 2019 to £3.5m in 2020, by £132K. This was largely due to higher dividends earned from new ethical fund investments in 2020, in particular CCLA-COIF Ethical Fund vis-a-vis dividends forgone for corresponding redeemed funds. The Charity's total expenditure redueed significantly by 410/0 to £5.7m in 2020 trom £9.7m in the previous year.

Unrestricted Funds The Charity's main source of income is investment income, which represents more than 970/0 of total unreslricled fund income during the year.

The stability of the income and capital base of the investment portfolio is paramount in creating a financially sound and sustainable operating model, allowing CINM lo continue lo sustain the ongoing expenditure required lo deliver its mission and purpose. The Charity has a strong capital base and this makes ils immediate activities less vulnerable lo large variations in total relums from the investments. Total unrestricted funds as at the end of 2020 stsnds at £169.5m, an increase from £159 2m in 2019. The invested fund largely originated from a gift from the sale of a Hong Kong hospital site in 1994. The investment committee monitors the performance of these funds quarterly. In 2020, the investment portfolio delivered a nominal return of 9.40kn (before adjustment for inflation} and a real annual return of 8.6, (after adjusting for UK CPI inflation of 0.60AI. 13

The Charity's Ethical Investment Policy that was approved by the Board in May 2019, on the advice of the Investment and Finance Committees, broadened the scope and lightened the criteria of ils previous policy. The core of this policy is as follows.. 111 As a Christian organi5ation, CWM believes in acting in a socially responsible manner with respect lo its investment portfolio. This means that, wherever feasible, CWM selects managers who employ ethical screens to exclude investments in industries dealing with alcohol, toba¢co, weapons, adult entertainment, and gambling, and examines companies for their impact on climate change and the environment and any exploitation of labour. 121 The threshold for determining whether a company falls within the prohibrf(ed categories in paragraph 1 above will be that CWM will not invest in a company that derives 5Vo or more of ils lumover from alcohol products, or 30A or more of its tumover from any of the other lour prohibited industries. {31 c will also seek lo pursue ils ethical commitments by engaging with those companies in which it holds investments. 141 CWM will be open to investing a share of ils capital in investments that are designed lo bring a social more than a financial return. Any such investments will be segregated from investments where financial return is the principal purpose. 14

CVVM intends to use this invested capitsl base to secure the long- term future of CINM'S activities around the world.

Recent Developments continued working in accordance with the 2016 - 2019 strategic plan in 2020, being the Iransilional year, of concluding one strategy framework and commencing another. In the meantime, the management team developed the detailed programmes and action plans lo achieve the strategic outcomes of the first implementation phase of the newly completed 2020 - 2029 strategy framework that was approved by the CWM Board in February 2020. The work plans in respect of this strategy framework will gradually roll out from 2021 2029. The 2020 - 2029 strategic framework reflects the map of the missional joumey to be pursued by CVW in thi5 decade. 11 was informed by input from CWM'S diverse communities as well as the reading of the signs of the time. A theology statement - Rising lo Life. Breaking out from Babylon, a faith stance on commitment to mission - Missio Confessionis, a financial mission fr8mework - Theological and Missiological Commitments lo Life-Flourishing Economy and Finance for All and the Legacies of Slavery proiect report and recommendations are provided as accompanying resources.

It is expected that the appointment will be negotiated and the candidate assumes the position by mid- 2021. The outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic, which begun in the early months of 2020 and spread across the globe, severely affected peoples and economies of many countries. CWM'$ 2020 Quadrennial Assembly, which was originally planned lo be held in South Africa, was postponed in March 2020 by the Board, lo June 2021, taking into account the impact of the pandemic on travel and social gatherings in order lo minimise the spread of the virus. As the impact of Covid-19 on physical gatherings for bigger number of participants is likely to persist for the most part of 2021 and probably even beyond, the Board in November 2020 agreed to approve managernenl's proposal to cancel this assembly event. The next Quadrennial Assembly meeting will happen in 2024. Nonetheless, most of the six161 CWM Regions had held their physical region pre- assembly meetings in the first quarter of 2020, which were scheduled as preparatory meeting for the Assembly.

The Board has considered the risks associated with Covid-19 {lo the best of its ability given the changing cireumslancesl., and il is of the view that Covid-19 is unlikely to have any significant or material negative impact on ils ability lo continue lo fvnction as a going concem or on the accounting policies outlined below. The level of reserves and size of the Charity's investment portfolio provides the financial cushion lo manage any short-term disruptions and allows the organisalion to plan ils normal activities and lo anlicipale positive engagement with the mission into the foreseeable future. 11.

COUNCIL FOR WORLD MISSION (UK) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020 Audltor's responsSbllltSes for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are lo obtain reasonable assuran about whether the financial slalements as a whole are free from material misstalemenl, whether due lo fraud or error, and lo issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, bul is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will always delecl a material misslatemenl when il exists. Misstalemenls can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to Influen the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Itregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and gUlations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to delect material mi5St21ements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The specific procedures for this engagement and the extent to which these are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.. Obtaining an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the entity operates in. focusing on those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the financial statements,. Enquiry of management lo identify any instances of known or suspected instances of fraud., Enquiry of management and those charged with governance around actual and potential litigation and claims", Enquiry of management about any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations., Reviewing the control systems in place and testing the effectiveness of the controls., Perfomiing audit work over the risk of management override of controls, Including testing of journal entries and other adjuslmenls for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for bias. Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance., Reviewing financial statement disclosures 8nd testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Enquiries made of the group auditors of the parent charity. Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there 15 a risk thatwe will not delecl all irregularities, including those leading lo a material misstalemenl in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation.
