INSTITUTE OF MONEY ADVISERS (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED)(INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
Financial review
The financial statements are set out pages 12 to 29. The trustees consider the financial performance by the charity during the year to have been satisfactory.
The Statement of Financial Activities shows a total income of £551,194 (2019 £714,531) and total costs of £510,835 (£634,529) resulting in a surplus of £40,359 (2019 £80,002).
The Board have made provision to address the financial challenges of income generation by contracting with a business development consultant, to help increase revenue and mitigate the risk of unexpected budget variances being met from reserves.
Trustees consider it appropriate to hold free reserves equivalent to at least six months' operating costs. In addition, the trustees agreed to put aside specific reserves of £3,500 to provide financial support to students on 2021 cohorts of CertMAP in exceptional circumstances; £4,000 to provide subsidised places to members attending the IMA annual conference; £63,000 to procure a Customer Relationship Management system; £6,000 to cover post lockdown office costs; £2,000 to provide an IMA Branch Support Fund; £2,000 to cover interim costs of IMA Branch Money Advice Group meetings; £4,000 to subsidise IMA member training places to non-MaPS funded advisers; £2,548 for internal learning and development; a Fixed Asset Fund of £3,914; and an IT equipment reserve of £3,000.
The trustees also considered it prudent to hold a Contingency Fund of £44,942 to meet obligations under existing contracts and lease agreements.
The free reserves at 31 December 2020 stood at £546,073 (£468,312)
Availability and adequacy of assets of each of the funds
The Board of trustees is satisfied that the IMA's assets in each fund are available and adequate to fulfil its obligations in respect of each fund.
Principal Funding Sources
How our expenditure in the year has supported our objectives.
Education
Integral to meeting our charitable purpose is the provision of education and training for money advisers. To this end, in 2020 the Institute provided:
-
i. the Certificate of Credit in Money Advice Practice qualification (in partnership with Staffordshire University) and
-
ii. the IMA Specialist Training Programme
-
iii. free webinars to IMA members and non-members subscribing to our Networking and Information Sharing Project resources.

INSTITUTE OF MONEY ADVISERS (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED)(INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
Qualifications
Awarding the Certificate in Money Advice Practice , to 129 IMA members in 2020 ensured that they met the quality standard required in this highly-skilled area of work and became recognised as Accredited Money Advisers.
Bursary funding from the United Utilities Trust Fund and the Thames Water Trust Fund helped to subsidise the cost of studying the CertMAP qualification for IMA members assisting clients in the United Utilities and Thames Water regions.
Training
We delivered a total of 58 open programme training events throughout the year in a range of specialist subjects offering a total of 1385 training places. During January-March, these courses were delivered face-toface at venues across England and Wales. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, training courses were reconfigured for virtual delivery and, from April 2020, all courses were delivered online to ensure that advisers were able to keep their knowledge up to date and continue to develop professionally.
373 advisers attended open programme training free of charge, and a further 338 received free training inhouse, thanks to funding from the Money and Pensions Service (via a Money Advice Trust grant).
Relieve Poverty
The provision of education, training and support services to IMA members outlined in this report helps to improve and maintain the quality of advice provided by money advisers; in turn, the work of money advisers supporting those with unmanageable debt and maximising incomes, helps to relieve poverty and advance public education in all matters relating to management of personal finances.
Our policy work has enabled us to gather evidence and respond to issues which threaten, cause or compound poverty to people in debt.
In its role as a Debt Relief Order Competent Authority, the IMA was directly involved in the relief of poverty during 2020, with our staff assessing and authorising only applicants with the requisite skills and competence to act as Approved Intermediaries. IMA Approved Intermediaries were then able to submit Debt Relief Order applications on behalf of insolvent people, eventually leading to the discharge of their debt.
Influence Policy and Practice
The staff team also worked with IMA members and other sector stakeholders to contribute to and support consultations and campaigns. We obtained evidence from and facilitated focus group meetings with IMA members to inform our response to the Cabinet Office’s call for evidence to improve government debt management. We also worked in partnership with the Taking Control stakeholders seeking to improve enforcement agent practice.
In response to a resolution passed at the IMA’s Annual General Meeting in 2019, we commissioned independent research into the impact of workloads on debt advisers.
A report, ‘Workload conditions and wellbeing in the money advice sector’, was published in October 2020 and has supported advisers in discussions with their employers and employers in discussions with funders. The IMA has also brought the report’s findings to the attention of key decision makers and funders to asked that wellbeing and working conditions are considered when planning future debt advice service provision.
Plans and Main Objectives for the Forthcoming Year
In 2020, the IMA Trustee Board plans to build on the success of the previous twelve months, ensuring that high quality training, education and support services are available to advisers who make a difference to overindebted people and those who are struggling to budget.

Structure, governance and management
The charity is a company limited by guarantee registered in England and Wales(Registered company no 05386480) and is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. It was incorporated on 9 March 2005 and registered as a charity on 18 January 2006 (Registered Charity no 1112758).
The Trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:
T Budd - co-opted
(Resigned 17 February 2021)
T Lett J Phipps (Resigned 2 February 2021) J Clack S Mercer R Rosenberg - co-opted J Fielding S Williams L Goldberg - co-opted (Appointed 22 February 2021) A Walters - co-opted (Appointed 22 February 2021)
Appointment of trustees is governed by the charity's Memorandum and Articles of Association. Trustees are elected by ballot at the General Meeting and the Ordinary Members shall take office for three years, save for the first three years following incorporation when one third of the originally elected Trustees shall retire in rotation but may be re-elected.
The trustees have the power to co-opt up to four further members to fill specialist roles. A Co-opted Director's period of appointment runs up to the date of the AGM following co-option. One further Director is elected by the Council of the Institute as its representative on the Board of Trustees.
All members are circulated with invitations to nominate trustees prior to the Annual General Meeting (AGM) advising them of the retiring trustees and requesting nominations for the AGM. When considering co-opting trustees, the Board has regard to the requirement for any specialist skills needed.

INSTITUTE OF MONEY ADVISERS (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED)(INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
Risk Assessment
Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and believe that the risks posed by the Covid-19 pandemic preventing face-to-face training, events and other meetings, are effectively mitigated by hosting online events using webinar platforms.
The potential risk of a reduction in membership and lower take-up of IMA services is not significant in the short-term, following Money and Pension Service funding of over 500 trainee debt adviser roles in 2020/21. Post-pandemic, however, there may be significant changes to the money advice sector in the longer-term, for which we Trustees will actively monitor the external environment.
The IMA risk register is reviewed and updated at each Trustee Board meeting, ensuring effective risk management and mitigation.
Related Parties
In the delivery of some of our strategic aims, the IMA will partner with other organisations:
We will partner with the Staffordshire University to deliver the debt advice qualification, the Certificate of Credit in Money Advice Practice.
Through a grant from the Money Advice Trust, we will seek to offer free training to Money and Pensions Service funded debt advice projects.
Through a quality improvement grant from and in partnership with the Money Advice Trust, we will provide an adapted version of the IMA’s Continuing Professional Development scheme to Money and Pensions Service.
The IMA will continue to work with a wide range of stakeholders involved in the delivery of money advice to promote quality and share good practice.

INSTITUTE OF MONEY ADVISERS (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
The Trustees, who are also the directors of Institute of Money Advisers for the purpose of company law, are responsible for preparing the Trustees Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company Law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that year.
In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and

prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity 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 Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INSTITUTE OF MONEY ADVISERS (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF INSTITUTE OF MONEY ADVISERS
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Institute of Money Advisers (the ‘Charity’) for the year ended 31 December 2020 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and the 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:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 December 2020 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the 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 directors’ 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 [entity]'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 directors 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 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.

INSTITUTE OF MONEY ADVISERS (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE MEMBERS OF INSTITUTE OF MONEY ADVISERS
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:
-
the information given in the Trustees Report, which includes the d irectors’ r eport prepared for the purposes of company law, for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the d irectors’ r eport included within the Trustees r eport has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the d irectors’ r eport included within the Trustees r eport.
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:
-
adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
Responsibilities of Trustees
As explained more fully in the s tatement of Trustees r esponsibilities, the Trustees, who are also the directors of the Charity for the purpose 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 Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the 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 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: http://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

INSTITUTE OF MONEY ADVISERS (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE MEMBERS OF INSTITUTE OF MONEY ADVISERS
Capability of the audit in detecting irregularities, including fraud
Based on our understanding of the C harit y and its industry, we identified that the principal risks of noncompliance with laws and regulations related to breaches of UK law and we considered the extent to which noncompliance might have a material effect on the financial statements of the C harit y. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006. We evaluated management's incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls), and determined that the principal risks were related to posting inappropriate journal entries to increase revenue or reduce expenditure or increase the capital position of the C harit y, and management bias in accounting estimates and judgmental areas of the financial statements. Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included: ·
-
Discussions with directors including consideration of known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulation and fraud;
-
Reviewing relevant meeting minutes;
-
Reviewing of correspondence in so far as they related to non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud;
-
Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any journal entries posted with unusual account combinations, posted on unusual days, posted by infrequent users, posted by senior management or posted with descriptions indicating a higher level of risk; .
Designing audit procedures to incorporate unpredictability around the nature, timing or extent of our testing over immaterial liabilities and assets balances. ·
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non-·compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.

INSTITUTE OF MONEY ADVISERS (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
Institute of Money Advisers is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is First Floor, 4 Park Court, Park Cross Street, Leeds, LS1 2QH.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charity's [governing document], the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)". The Charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling , which is the functional currency of the Charity. Monetary a mounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the Charity.
1.4 Incoming resources
Income is recognised when the Charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the Charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the Charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

1.5 Resources expended
Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities an those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Fixtures and fittings
33% Straight line
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.
1.7 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the Charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any ) .
1.8 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
1.9 Financial instruments
The Charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Charity's balance sheet when the Charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

(Continued)
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future p aymen ts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.10 Employee benefits
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the Charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
1.11 Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the Charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
