When11 Is not able lo assess risks using internal resources, Ihe Cdlege takes advice from experts exlemal lo the College with specialist knowledge. Policies, procedures, and (he risk register are reviewed principally by the Eslales 8nd Finance Committee, with input from olher relevant College cornmittees. lfi addition, the Domestic Bursar and domestic heads of seclions meel regularty to review heallh and safely and personnel matters, and in temi th Burs8r ch8irs 8 regu18r meets'ng of the most sÈnlor slaff of the College. The College has inslituled 8 conllnuous programme ol monitoring and improvement in healih and safety matters, with advice regularly provided by suitably qualified personnel. Training courses and other forms of career development are available, when requested, lo members of staff lo enhance their skllls in risk4eL9ted areas. The Goveming Body, which has uttimale responsibilsty for managing any risks faced by the College, has reviewed the processes in place for managing risk and the principal identified risks to which the College and ils subsidiaries are exposed, and has concluded that adequate systems are in place to manage these risks. In particular, the Governing Body has identified and reviewed a register of risks in the fdlowing areas.. govemance. finances. academic matters, and operations. Specific risks considered in th8 past tsvèlve months includo: governance processes. govemment policy and regulation linduding the reporbng of serious incidents to the Charity Commisslonsl. the financial health of the College, the u)ndsbon of C(Alege bulldlngs Iwllh respect lo energy efficiency as well as stan(JaTds of provision for postgraduate students in particularl. heath and safety, and business continuity linclvding Ihe possibilty of cyber attar*sl. 10
The Queen's College, Oxford Report of the Governing Body Yearended 31 July 2025 In 20225 the College paid patrtycular allenlion lo risks ariwng from the high c05t of living in Oxford, and the problems this causes for employees Iwilh associated risks relating to recruitment and retention). In particular, it introduced a'Queen's weighting, which is discretionary supplemental remuner8tlon for those employees whose pay is linked lo national higher-educalion pay scales. The College has decided lo build upon, bul also depart from, the University of Oxford's approach to this issue= the University pays a fixed-rale weighting, whereas the College pays a higher weighting that increases across the pay grades lthus reducing compression of the pay scal81. The College also continued lo pay particular attention to risks arising from its accommodation buildings. A search is curTenUy underway for possible sites on which new accommc•Jation might be doveloped. This has yielded a number of possibilities which the College is psjrsuing. The most urgent priority is to improve the accommodation offered lo postgraduate students. many of whom cuThently live in unpopularflats rented privately by the College. The College's aspiration is lo provide a lasting and attract¢ve solution lo this problem. The College has continued to pay dose attention to the macroeconomle cllmate. The Collegè's budgeting process was smooth and the Eslales and Finance Commrttee once again suNeyed a long-term forecast oudining the College's financia5 susiBinability over th$ coming decade. which was judggd to be sa118f8clory. Indeed, the Governing Body identified the possibility of mcKleslty expanding the College's activilles: proFK)sals from members of the Goveming Body were gathered and ranked. As a resuli. in the coming years, the College 11 explore.. how lo provide means-lesled scholarships to poslgradvates.. how lo improve undergradu8te sludenl support,. how lo improve the pay of eBrly•career academics,. and how to diversify the College's portrait collection so that11 Is more representative of the College community- In rnore general terms the College is mindful that the finandal future may become rnore challenging. with further Incre8S8s in payroll costs Ilkely and the near-certainty Ihat undergraduate luilion fees for home studen15 will not rècover the considerable Ios5 in real income that has been imposed on tho sector in thg past dgcade. The risks and opportunities that are presgnled by dimate change have also been considered in some dolail in the past twelve months. The College has decided to create a Junior Research Fellowship in Climate Change Research., this will be o threfryear post. the first appointment to which is expected in October 2026. The Coll8g8 also considered a Se0S of reports on the energy efficiency of its main site. and idents'fied options lo improv8 the performance of the buildings and reduce the carbon emissims of the College. To this end the College is actlvely pursuing the possibilily of connecting lo an Oxford heat nètwork, which in the view of the Goveming Body is the most attractive and feasible way of eliminating the College's current reliance on gas boilers for space healing and the supply of hot waler. The College's Estales & Finance Commrttee also commissioned a report on the carbon footprlnl of its invested property port101. and will continue to consider how incrementally lo address this topic where il is financially prudent to do so. In this conlexl it should be noted that al least two proposals for solar parks on agricullvral land owned by the College have been submitted for planning pem)ission, and pemiission has already been granted for a battery storage scheme on ColFege land near lo Oxford. Investment pollcyi obl•ctlve$ and perfomiance Tha College's investment objectives are to balance current and fvtyre beneficiary needs by-. maintaining lal least) the value of the investments in real terms over the long term- producing a consistent and sustainable levd of income to support expendituro. and delivering these objectives wtthin acceptsble levels of risk. To meet these objectives the Couege's inveslments as a whole a managed on a total return basis, maintsining diversification across a range of asset classes in order to priKluce an apppriate balance between risk and return. In Ilne with thi5 approach, the College statutes allow the College to invesl permanent endowments to maximise the related total relum and to make available expenditur& each year an appropriate proportion of the unapplied tot81 relum. The initi81 value of the trust for investment and the initial value of the un8pplied lotsl return were est8blished on 25 June 2011 and take effect from 1 August 2002. These values were established by examination, lo the extent reasonably possibk, of Ihe temis (where known) of historical benefactions lo the College.
The Queen's Collegè, Oxford Report of the Governing Body Year ended 31 July 2025 The investment strategy, pollcy, and perforrnan are monitored by the Estates and Finan Committee.

'Tolal rèturn. investment ac¢ountlng The College's statutes authorise the Co18 to adopta'total retum. basi$ forthe investrnent of Its permanonl endowment. The Colge can invest its permanent endowTnents without regard to Ihe capilallincorne dislinclion5 of standard trust law and wilh discretion lo apply any part of the a¢cumu181ed total return on the investment as income for spending each year. Until this power is exercised. the lolal retum is accumulated as a component of the endowmenl known as the unapplied lotal retum thal can be either be retained for Investment or release lo income al the discretion of the Goveming Body. 15. Fund accountlng The total funds of the College and ils subsidi8ries are altocaled lo unreslricled, restricted or endowm8nl funds based on the tèrms 581 by the donots or set by the terms of an appeal. Endowment lunds are further sub.divided into permanent and exp8rsdabl8. Unreslricled lynds can be used in furtherance of the objects of the College al the discretion ofthe Governing Body. The Goveming Body may decide that part of the unrestricted funds sho11 be used in future for a Specific purpose and this will be accounted for by transfefs to appropriote designated funds. ReslriGled fijnds wmprise gifts, legacies and grants where the donors have specified that the funds ar8 10 be used lor particular purposes of the College. They consist of eilher grfts wherg the donor ha5 specified that both the capitsl and any income arising must be used for the purposes given or the Income on yifts where the donor has required or perniitted th8 capitsl to be m8intalned and with the intenlKin that the income will be used for specrfic purposes withTrn the College's objects. Perm8nenl endowment funds arise where donors specify that the fund$ are to be retained as capital for the permanent benefit of the College. Any part ol ihe tolal relum arising from the capital that is allocated lo income will be accounted for as unrestricted funds unless the donor has placed restrictions on the use of th81 income, in which case il will be accounted for as a restricted fund. Expendable endowment funds are similar to permanent endowmenl in that they hav8 been given, or the College has delennineLrf based on the circumstances Ihal they have been given. for the long term benefit of the College. However, the Goveming Body may al Iheir discretion delemiine to spond all or part of the capital. 16. Penslon costs The College partlclpales in the Unlversities Superannuation Schem8 IUSS} and the Untversity of Oxford Staff Pension Scheme IOSPSI. These schemes are hybrid pension sthemes, providing defined benefits as well as benefits based on dtsfined contributions. The assets of the scheme are held in a separate trustee administered fund. Due to the mutual nature of the schemes. the assets a not atlribuled to individLFal employers and scheme-wide contrittIon rates are set. A5 a result. the College is therefore exposed to ctuarial risks arising from employees of other employers and is unable lo identrfy ils share of the undertyillg assets and liabilities of the schemes on a consistent and reasonable basis. In accordance with Secllon 28 of FRS 102 "Ernployee benefits" the College therefore accounts for the schemes as if they were wholly 20
The Queen's College, Oxford statement of Accounting Policies Yearended 31 Juty 2025 defineé conthbution schemes. Consequenlty. the amount charyed to the income and expenditure account represents the contributions paYae to each scheme. Where a scheme valuation determines that the stheme is in deficit on a 'technical provisiDris' basis la5 was the case following the 2020 USS valuation}. the scheme's Truslee must agree a Recovery Plan that d6temiines how each employer within the scheme will fund an over811 deficit. The College recognises a liability for Ihe contiibutions payable that arise from such an agreement Ito the exlenl Ihal they relate lo a deficill with related expen5e8 being recognised in the Stslement of Financial Activities. 21
