Key Policy Statements Investment Policy The Tnjstees. objective is to invest surplus cash to best thantage with minimum risk. The Union has taken a prudent stance with funds being held in h￿h 1nterest-bearing deposit accounts for periods not exceeding 12 months. Cash funds so invested are usually over a minimum balance of £200.000 and must be pla￿d wth an apFYoved and reputable banking institution to minimise risk. Investment retums in the year refie¢l the Stsied policy as well as the lower interest rates available due to market conditions. Reserves Policy The Trustees regulady consider the level of free reserrfes fequired. Issues considered by the Trustees during 2020-21 when looking al the level of reserves b%tre future investment and contingency requirements for risks. This includes such rtems as future slrale9ic woje¢ts which indudes the requirement for any building refurbishment and infrastructure development and the impact of the increase in the Students.
