Competition (chair)| The Board of Trustees are legally responsible for the MMF Society. The Trustees met twice in this period, at the Annual Meeting on 31[st] August 2021 and on 20[th] June 2022. All new Trustees receive the Charity Commission’s Information on the responsibilities of Charity Trustees, the Constitution of the Charity, the most recent Annual Report and Statement of Accounts of the Charity. New Trustees receive a briefing and trustee induction pack on appointment, with further training undertaken on an ad-hoc basis, as required. At the first AGM of the Membership Committee, held in September 2020, all Trustees resigned and an election of new Trustees was held. Trustees serve for three years. Candidates from a list drawn up by the Nominations Committee stood. At subsequent AGMs, one third of Trustees, those longest in office, will resign and an election of new Trustees to serve for three years will be held. Candidates from a list drawn up by the Nominations Committee will stand. Any Member may be nominated for election to the Nominations Committee with the support of at least two other Members.

Sub-Committees of the Board of Trustees** ## **Annual Conference** The Society plans to hold an annual conference, usually in September, with presentations from distinguished guest speakers and those who have submitted papers which have been accepted by the organising committee. The Society, and its predecessor organisations (most recently the MMF Research Group), has met annually in the UK since 1969. The 2021 Annual conference was held online and hosted by the University of Cambridge. The invited speakers were: Sydney Ludvigson (New York University); Olivier Blanchard (Massachusetts Institute of Technology); Jordi Gali (Universitat Pompeu Fabra); Linda Goldberg (Federal Reserve Bank of New York); Marcel Fratzscher (Humboldt University Berlin). The recordings of their talks are available at 308 people registered for the event. This has been the largest number of registrations we have ever had for a MMF conference. We thank Sean Holly, Charles Brendon, Tiago Cavalcanti, Elisa Faraglia and Chryssi Giannitsarou for the work that they did to organise this conference. The conference returns to a normal face to face format in 2022, hosted by the University of Kent with invited speakers: Murillo Campello (Cornell University), Catherine L Mann (MPC, Bank of England), George-Marios Angeletos (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and Emi Nakamura (University of California, Berkeley). We are grateful to the local organisers: Alfred Duncan, Ilhan Guner, Wei Jiang, Alexander Klein, and Miguel León-Ledesma. ## **Communications** The MMF maintains a website and a JISCMail subscription list (with 878 subscribers) for communicating with members and those interested in receiving news from the Society. The MMF has an active Twitter account @MMF_research (with 1,119 followers), a website https://www.mmf.ac.uk/ which offers up-to-date information about upcoming conferences and activities, as well as providing a record of past events and further information about the MMF including a news blog, and a YouTube channel (with 96 subscribers) that collects the recordings of our online/hybrid events, organised in 13 playlists. ## **Diversity** As is clearly expressed in our EDI statement, at the MMF we are fully committed to inclusion across race, gender, age, religion, identity, experience and all other protected characteristics. This commitment has been central to all our activities over the past year, including those we have supported. This is also visible in both the program of the PhD conference and the line-up of the keynotes at our upcoming 2022 annual conference, taking place at the University of Kent, at Canterbury. We continue to welcome proposals that ensure there is tangible diversity and inclusivity in the programme and will not be funding or publicising events that lack such diversity. ## **Investment** The MMF has some limited accumulated funds which it uses to smooth outgoings and income unevenness over time. We have initiated the process of opening an execution-only account with Charles Stanley in order to invest the surplus in a diversified range of low-cost funds. The Investment Committee makes specific proposals to the Trustees as to where best these funds be allocated _._ ## **Nominations** This was the first year of operation of the replacement of trustees and members on a rotational basis. Richard Barwell and Panicos Demetriades resigned as Trustees. Simon Price’s initial term as Trustee expired as per the rotation, having been selected randomly. and he was subsequently elected in December 2021 for a new term of three years. There are two vacancies for Trustees which will be filled in due course. Philip Arestis and Mike Wickens retired as Honorary Vice Presidents and Sean Holly, Paul Levine and Jo Pearlman moved from Members to Honorary Vice Presidents. DocuSign Envelope ID: ED7C7170-3D64-41B1-9DAD-7396F4E39B64 James Mitchell and Kevin Sheedy have resigned as Ordinary Committee Members. Saleem Bahaj, Francesca Monti, Liliana Varela, Dimitri Vayanos and Tianshu Zhao were elected as Ordinary Committee Members, to serve for three years in the first instance. DocuSign Envelope ID: ED7C7170-3D64-41B1-9DAD-7396F4E39B64 **- 5 -** ## **THE MONEY MACRO AND FINANCE SOCIETY** ## **ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES** ## **Reserves Policy** The purpose of the reserve policy for the Money Macro and Finance Society is to ensure that sufficient funds are available to cover normal operational costs and to provide a measure of protection against large unbudgeted expenditure, whilst also making sure that excessive, unallocated funds do not accumulate. The Society plans to spend the majority of its regular income on its conference activities and sponsored events. The Trustees deem it sensible to maintain a balance of one years’ operational costs, which corresponds to approximately £60,000. The Trustees review the accounts regularly. It is recognised that due to the uncertainty around our annual income, it is necessary to hold a balance greater than £60k as an endowment to supplement other sources of income. This will provide a buffer to maintain our regular commitments. The level of reserves will be reviewed annually to reflect the perceived risks and budgetary demands of the Society. ## **Overseas Engagement** A subcommittee is being established involving representatives of international bodies that are similar to the MMF Society and several Committee members. The subcommittee will encourage collaborative ventures between the MMF and international counterparts. ## **PhD Conference** The Society plans to hold annually a conference for PhD students to present their work and receive feedback from other participants. The Society has held an annual conference for PhD students researching topics in monetary economics, macroeconomics and financial economics, broadly defined, since 2013. This year’s PhD workshop was hosted by Heriot-Watt University and was the first ‘in person’ since the COVID Pandemic struck in 2020. The conference ran from lunch on Thursday to lunch on Saturday, with a Conference Dinner on the Friday evening. We were particularly fortunate in that the Friday sessions were held in Panmure House, the Edinburgh home of Adam Smith. Students presented papers in all three areas of interest - macroeconomics, monetary economics and finance – and represented a diverse set of universities including the Universities of Lausanne and Dresden. Prizes were awarded in honour of the late Professor Peter Sinclair as follows: £250 to Julian Ashwin (Oxford University) for his paper on ‘The shifting focus of central bankers’ £150 to Lee Tyrell-Hendry (Edinburgh University) for his paper on ‘EM forever blowing bubbles: Global imbalances and the limits of fiscal policy’ £100 to Jantke de Boer (Universities of Dresden and Cambridge) for her paper on ‘Foreign portfolio investment network and currency risk premia’ ## **Policy Advisory** The MMF Society arranges an annual policy conference in London. The event brings together senior policymakers and academics to discuss pertinent policy questions in money, macro and finance of the day. The Society ran the **7[th] Policy Conference Webinars** between 28[th] September and 8[th] October. The topic for this conference was climate finance and the speakers included (in order of events) Sarah Breeden (Executive Director, Bank of England), Ma Jun (Chairman, China Green Finance Commission), Mark Carney (former Governor, Bank of England and Bank of Canada, COP26 Adviser to the UK Government), panel discussion with Ian Parry (Principal Environmental Fiscal Policy Expert, IMF), Igor Zuccardi (IMF) and Beata Javorcik (EBRD) and Robert Engle (New York University and Nobel Laureate) with Misa Tanaka (Head of Research, Bank of England). Further details and video recordings of all the sessions are available at: https://www.mmf.ac.uk/policy/. DocuSign Envelope ID: ED7C7170-3D64-41B1-9DAD-7396F4E39B64 **- 6 -** ## **THE MONEY MACRO AND FINANCE SOCIETY** ## **ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES** ## **Risk** The Trustees give consideration to the major risks facing the MMF and satisfy themselves that systems or procedures are established in order to mitigate these risks. The Risk Committee advises the Trustees on these matters. Covid-19 has led to the loss of the main income source - the annual MMF conference. However, in mitigation, the MMF is not committed to any of the usual expenditures on workshops, conferences, PhD support in reduced annual conference fees. Commitments have been trimmed in the light of Covid-19. There will be some expenditures on Webinar events, but these are very small. The MMF is subject to further governance, financial and operational risks and a risk register is being developed to monitor these risks. The risk register is being prepared for the start of 2023. ## **Sponsored and** _**ad hoc**_ **Events** The MMF sponsors events by groups within the UK that fall within our remit. Some of these are facilitated on an ad hoc basis, but there is also an annual call for events that fall under our remit that would benefit from sponsorship. This latter process is overseen by the Seminars Committee (SC), chaired by Simon Price, the executive team member responsible for Sponsored Events. Since the last Trustees’ meeting in June 2021 MMF this category mainly covers “seminar committee” part-funded events, ad hoc events and the Challenges partnerships with the Resolution Foundation. Sponsored events from the 2020 call held since the last Trustees’ meeting in June 2021 were: - CLIMATE CHANGE: ECONOMIC IMPLICATIONS, TOOLS AND CHALLENGES FOR POLICY- - MAKERS IN EUROPE on 17 June 2021 (online) NIESR - ESRC VIRTUAL WORKSHOP ON PREDICTABILITY, FORECASTING AND MONITORING on 12-14th - July 2021 University of Essex (online) - MACROECONOMICS NETWORK IN THE SOUTH WEST WORKSHOP on 24 September 2021 - (University of Bath) - LILLE-READING WORKSHOP ON INTERNATIONAL FINANCE on 4-5 November 2021(online) - WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED ABOUT THE MACROECONOMIC EFFECT OF FORWARD GUIDANCE? - on 9-10 November 2021 University of Oxford (online) - WORKSHOP ON PRODUCTIVITY AND STRUCTURAL CHANGE on 26 November 2021 (Bank of - England, NIESR, The Productivity Institute, Essex Business School and Adam Smith Business School (hybrid) Despite this being a long list, the costs were very low as they were mostly online. We issued our usual call in the second half of 2021 with a specific topic and call as follows: ## The World after Covid The pandemic remains the dominant influence on the world economy. So events that focus on the long-run impact and policy responses are particularly invited, including but not restricted to - Structural changes in labour and other markets. - Appropriate fiscal and monetary policies. - Longer term impacts on deprivation and workplace or economic inequalities. We welcome proposals that aim to cover these or similar issues that emphasise the unusual aspects of the current situation, as well as our usual general call. DocuSign Envelope ID: ED7C7170-3D64-41B1-9DAD-7396F4E39B64 **- 7 -** ## **THE MONEY MACRO AND FINANCE SOCIETY** ## **ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES** ## **Sponsored and** _**ad hoc**_ **Events** We received three applications, none of which were on topic: - Liverpool: Post-COVID: A Multidisciplinary Big Data Analysis of UK Economy and Economic Policies (to be - held 28-29 June 2022) - Birkbeck Environmental Finance for the Common Good (held 31 March to 1 April 2022). - Birmingham. Geography of money and finance and future challenges for levelling up UK economy. After the usual process of seeking a referee, we decided to fund the first two, although neither were very close to our core interests. We did not fund Birmingham as we judged it it be outside our area. This means we underspent our notional £10,000 budget by about £5,500. This was a disappointing outcome, and we (the ExComm Chairman, Communications and Strategy, and Sponsored Events members) have been reflecting on how to proceed next year. Consequently, we are not currently planning the usual call for events which last year had a September deadline, although it is by no means too late to do so. The third of the MMF/RF Challenges series on New economic policy challenges for an uncertain world took place as two hybrid events on 28 April and 9 May 2022 and attracted large online audiences. The speakers were Adam Posen (Chair of the Peterson Institute), Katharine Neiss (Chief European Economist at PGIM Fixed Income), Michael Saunders (external member of the Monetary Policy Committee) and Petra Geraats (Associate Professor of Economics at the University of Cambridge). MMF incurred no costs for these events. There was also the MPC at 25 event organised with NIESR on 30 March 2022. This was a closed meeting with exceptionally well-informed participants including past MPC members and others who had historically been involved with the MPC. ## **Financial Review** The MMF is fully in control of all its reserves. Our 2019-2021 accounts were independently examined by Cound and Co. LLP Chartered Accountants and submitted to the Charity Commission. Our accounts are maintained by a bookkeeper on an external accounting platform called ‘Xero’. The annual cost incurred by MMF for managing our accounts, which includes the external examination, software cots and bookkeeper fees, amounted to approximately £2,000 in 2021-22. Our main source of income remains the fees generated from the Annual Conference. The revenue for the 2021 conference amounted to around £13,880 and the surplus, after allowing for expenses, amounted to £11,500. We have a balance of £197,787 as of 16[th] June 2022. Our P&L for the period financial year 2021-22 and our balance sheet as of 31st March 2022 are below. The MMF was registered as a charity on 6[th] November 2019. ## **On behalf of the Trustees of the Macro, Money and Finance Society** **Peter Smith Amit Kara** 22 December 2022 DocuSign Envelope ID: ED7C7170-3D64-41B1-9DAD-7396F4E39B64 **- 8 -** ## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS’ REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF** ## **THE MONEY MACRO AND FINANCE SOCIETY** ## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of the Money Macro and Finance Society** I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022 which are set out on pages 5 to 8. ## **Responsibilities and basis of report** As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. ## **Independent examiner's statement** I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records 3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008: other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
