ResoThes pollcy and flnancial posltlon The reader wll discern from the foregoing Ihal the Charlty carries out various activities and is responsible for the care and support of ils religSous members whose average age is increasing and whose needs are continually changiThJ. The trustees have examined the need for free reserves i.e. those unrestricted funds not invested in tangible fixed a55els, deslgnaled for specrfic purposes, or otherwise committed. In considering the level of reserves requlred, Iru51ees lake into account forecasts of future Income and expendiluie, potenllal needs and risks, and the need to ansure the continuity of activlties. Given the nature of the Charills work and the Increasing. often unpredictable call on ils resources lo provide continuing essential care lo its members. especially those impaired by age and illne8$, the Iruslees believe that the level of free reseNes may be up to flve years, worth of expenditure wilhoul glving rise to concern. As previously mentioned, Ihe economic after*ffecls of the pandemic, the continuing war in Ukraine, the outbreak of warfare in the Middle-Ea31, and flucluallng inflatlon levels with increaslng interest rates have encouraged changes in the global markets and resulted in the Charil¥s Investment portfolio experiencing increas8d volatili(y. One of the consequences of trying lo manage the uncertainly that exi51s with the investment portrolio, is anlicipaling the level of divldené Income that will be available to the Charity during 2025. The trustees therefore rely on the free reserves lo help wf(h cashflow requirements lo meet op8rational expenditure in the year. Al 31 December 2024, the Charlly had net assets tolalling £15,460.728 (2023- £15,311,1801- The Society of Mary (Marist Fathers) CIO 10

This b8lan¢e was separated in recognrtion of the importance of such assets lo the Charity's operational activities. and thus is unavallable to meet the Charitys day-to-day commttments. Restrlcl8d funds of £Nil {2023 £14,624) al the balance sheet dale represent the final payment of funds remaining from the significant legacy recelved in 2020, the application of which is restricted lo overseas special missions, projects that are controlled and monilored by the Charity and administered via the General Administration in Rome. The Charity trustees are mindful of the need to set aside reseNes to safeguard the future of Its members and their charitable work, giving consideration to the age profile of its memb8Ts, the annual c051 of supportlng them and maintalning residenllal properties. In accordance with the reserve policy. th8 Injstees rely on professional assistance in catrying out an acluarlal calculation lo establish the costs of maintaining and supporting all of the present members of the Charity to the end of their natural life. Members ages range from 63 to 90 years. Based on advice received, the trustees continue lo designate an accumulated sum of £6.7 million {2023'. £6.7 million) as a reserve to provide for the members of the Charty in their continuing ministry and retirement and for any unforeseen circumstsnces. The current cost of care for any member who requires resldentiallnursing eare is eslimaled to be circa £50.000 per annum. Whenever possible, the Charlly will apply lo the State for financial assistance. bul this may be limited due to the recelpt of occupatlonal penslons.
