London Missionary Society Corporation and Colonial Missionary Society Corporation which remain 8S
dormant companies controlled by the Charity.
Wth the birth ofCWM, a new ideology and understanding ofdoing God's mission was emboced, which saw
a movement from the donor-recipienl model of mission, embedded in the colonial approach, lo a joint
ownership and mutual sharing of resources of people, ideas and money,. grounded in the biblical principle of
giving and receiving. Accordingly, the Charity was set up as a Worldwide community of Christian
denominations working as equal partners with 8 common commitment lo the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

are united churches, combining several church Iradilions. Member churches are all independent and
autonomous organisations that do not have any foimal links to CWM in their conslitulional documents. The

2ccoiJnts. However, through the submission of their annual accounts, the members musl demonslrale their
ability lo receive, monitor. and use the shared resources distributed through the worldwide partnetship for the
staled and agreed objectives.

Each member church is involved in setting its strategic mission plan, appropriate lo its local context, and
charitable resources are shared upon the basis of a specific strategic plan for each church. The situation in

specific lo each local context. To assist churches in formulating, monitoring, and evaluating their plans, the

The Transatlantic Slave Trade has shaped the experiences and reframed the identities ol millions of people
in the wodd today, through the endemic trauma and persislenl racial injustice, which found manifestations in
political, social, cultur81. economic and religious life. CWM believes that the legacies of this trade cannot be
simply ignored or treated as a thing of the past. Against this background, CWM launched the Legacies of
Slavery project with four aims in mind." 111 lo assess its own story and complicity with the systems of
enslavement and empire",121 to better underst2nd the urgency of achieving racial justice and the issues which
inlersecl with it,'131 to find ways to advocate reparation with ils member churches., and 141 to discover anti-
Imperial models of Christian m1$5ion in today's world.
In 2020, the Legacies of Slavery project continued lo focu5 on three main areas. Firstly, is the development
of a Legacies Strategy to govern CWM'S reparalory commitments. This includes recommendations for
L¢lilising the minimum £10 million financial reparation, approved by the Board." as well as the ongoing
programmatic work of CWM. Secondly, CVVM has established three research projects lo deepen our
awareness ofthe legacies we carry and how churches can amend their practice. Two of these projects, being
researched in the UK, have focused on Children and Racism, one of which is based in the Oxford Centre for
Religion and Culture and 15 investigating the CWM archives, tracing the racist portrayal of black people in
children's mission materials. The other research project is based in Birkbeck College, London and is reviewing
contemporary Christian education materials for its Irealmenl of racism
These projects will be brought
together to assist churches in Europe in considering ways lo develop better anli-racisl work with children and
youth. The final research project is based in the University of the Wesl Indies, who are working with Jamaican
artists lo critique the legacies of slavery in Christian mission. On account of Covid-19 realities, this work is
being extended into 2021. Thirdly, a series of online consullalions have been held lo further add￿ss, and
produce materials, lo advocate CWM'S legacies work, especially in the areas of critiquing Whiteness.

5.1.6 Partners-In-Mission {PIMI Programme
The sharing of people across member churches and the ecumenieal community is fundamental to the
Charity's way of working. A mission from everywhere lo everywhere is made possible by the number of
individuals who have offered themselves to serve in the mission field and to support those churches, willing
to send and receive them. The relevance of this programme is best attested to by those who participated
therein, p8rticulady, the receiving churches and the partners themselves. Thi5 dynamic interchange of
personnel represents the human fa￿ of the Charity in a variety of contexts across the world. The Charity is
inspired by those who have responded to the call lo serve and is heartened by the quality of the work on the
mission fi'eld., the extent lo which learning and growth are taking place among the partners in mission., and the
significant ways in which the ministry and mission of churches are being enriched and expanded.

Engagement with Member Churches
An important facet of the work of CWM is in accompanying member churches in Iheirjourney towards building
missional congregations. 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.

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.

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 re￿iVed 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 tse￿een the Office of the General Secretary and member
churches,. and in partnership with ecumenical colleagues and programme participants who help to share our
story.

about designated funds is given in note 11.1 of the accounts. Annual budgets and grant commitments are
planned lo ensure that the Charity's spending is in line with its policy and that there is full and proper
accountability for the project expenditure.
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. Expenditure on charitable activities accounts for 780/.12019". 870/0) of the Charity's total, with expenditure
on raising funds making up the 22,/0 difference.
The cost of generating funds reflects the fees paid lo the investment manageis and were mostly based on a
percentage of the value of the portfolio.
Expenditure on charitable activities decreasec% substsntially by 470A in 2020, from £8.5m in 2Q19 to £4.5m.
Grant funding represents more than 90¥0 of the total expenditure on charitable aclivilies. The significant
decrease in charitable activities expenditure resulted from reduced grant funding fmm £8.1.m in 2019 10 £4.1 m
in 2020. The rampant spread of Covid-19 virus in 2020, has reslricled all physical programmes, events and
meetings starting from March 2020. Project and scholarship grants applied for were fewer than before as
activities were curbed during lockdowns in various countries. Working from home arrangement also reduced
costs of offices maintenance.
The operating deficit for the year was £2.1 m12019'. £6.2ml. The Charity's Investments yielded nel valuation
gains of £11.gm12019'. £15.2m losses), which therefore produced a net positive contribution of £9.8m12019.'

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. Other SoUr￿S of income include contributions from member
churches and individuals as well as legacy income.
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.

the unapplied total return linteresl, dividends and realised capital gain) of the Retired Missionary Fund in
paying pensions to retired missionaries who had seNed before the inception of a pension scheme or were in
service before July 1977. The book value in December 1992 of the assets which subsequently composed the
Fund is deemed to be the permanent capital held on trust for inveslmenl1£684,0101. All subsequent increases
in the value of the permanent capital. whether arising from interest or dividends or realised capital gain on
disposal are held as unapplied total return until formally transferred in trust for application. Upon review of
and recommendation by the Finance Committee, regarding expected future payments vis-è-vis relums on
Investment on this Fund, the Trustees were satisfied that there will be suffi'cient unapplied returns to service
fvture payments.

raising standards or voluntary scheme for regulating fund-raising. Its principal source of income is from its
investments. The current fund balance stood at £177.8m as at 31 Deeember 2020, comprising £169.5m of

The Charity adopts a total return policy approach in managing the portfolio. The Charity seeks to generate
income and capital growth from its investments to finance ils mission aclivilies, mindful of the need and desire
to invest ethically and with regard lo socially responsible criteria The long-term target remains lo achieve a
50h real return on the investment portfolio but, recognising actual performance in the re￿nt past, operational
budgets in recent years have assumed a conservative 3'/g real return in an average year.
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.

Investment Policy lcontinuedl
The main investment portfolio, managed by the Investment Committee and coordinated by Cambridge
Associates Ltd ICAI, is centered around four major investment themes that are deemed suitable for CWM..
the growth engine Ideveloped market and emerging market equiliesl, diversifiers, inflation-sensitive
Icommodilies, property, inflalion-linked bonds) and deflation hedging Igovernmenl l)ondsl. The monitoring of
target allocations of the portfolio was performed quarterly and adjuslmenls lo the allocation were made, on
the advice of CA, where necessary.
Reviews of the fund managers, performance were undertaken by the Investment Committee quarterly,
measured against target returns as well as agreed market benchmarks such as the FTSE indexes and the
MSCI World Index. The actual Performan￿ of the investment portfolio in 2020 was strong, performing slightly
above benchmarks in 2020.
The Investment portfolio Imanaged investments onlyl under tt)e supervision of the Investment Committee had
a value of £151.9m al the start of 2020 which had increased to £168.6m as at 31 December 2020. Including
investment properties and social investments, the Charity recorded total investment capital gain of £11.9m,
together with total investment income Inel of fees) of £2.3m, thus giving the resullanl lolal net investment gain
of £14.2m for the year under review12019'. £17.4m nel gainl.

accepted the Investment and Finance Committees, advice lo undertake a major reshaping of the investment
portfolio with effect in 2019. which continued into 2020.
Reserves Policy
The unrestricted funds of CWM UK are predominantly made up of its invested capital base from which the
mission activities of the Group 8re funded. CVVM intends to use this invested capitsl base to secure the long-
term future of CINM'S activities around the world. Ils Reserves Policy is, therefore, lo maintain, when
measured on average over a period of years in real terms, al least the base level of the unrestricted reserves
in perpetuity. This would Imply reserves largel at the end of 2020 of around £164m, using the UK Consumer
Price Index as a measure of inflation. The unrestricted funds balance al the close of the financial year was

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

further develop andlor reshape the partnership in mission model that has guided CWM since 1977, in
recognition that global Christian witness Is changing, and the voices of persons in risky and vulnerable places
need to be heard.
The search prO￿sS engaged to recruit the next General Secretary IGSI of CVVN is successfully completed,
with the Members, approving the Board's recommendation al a special Members meeting, held on 31 March
2021. 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. Despite the absence of 8 General Assembly in 2020, in line with CWM conslitulions and with
guidance from the Company Secretary, CWM effectively conducted and completed the nomination and
election of the new Board of Directors for CWM Ltd, the Trustee Body for CWM IUKI and the Board of
Directors for CWM, Africa NPC via electronic platforms.
AII c￿ governance-related meetings - Committees, Board and Trustee Body meetings as well as the
Annual General Meeting - were held electronically, since March 2020. Similarly, all global programmes,
events and training workshops that were scheduled for March 2020 2nd beyond, were cancelled. CWM
programme5 team, however, managed to host several of these events online via CWM webinars.
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

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.
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 lo become 8W8re of instances of
non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due lo fraud rather than error, as
fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financi21 statements is located on the Financial
Reporting Council's website al. https'.Ilww.frc.org.uklOur-WorklAudiVAudit-8nd-assurancelStand8rds-

Use of this report
This report is made solely lo 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 slate lo the
charitable company's members those matters we are required lo stale lo them in an auditor's report and
