## Achievements and performance 

During 2023, The Nautical Institute Foundation has continued its engagement with industry seeking to understand and advise on matters related to the selection, recruitment and especially the retention of employees in seagoing positions with major shipping companies. 

The talent drain is a source of concern for a number of companies and understanding the dynamics affecting company loyalty impacts on personal development and improvements to safe operations aligned with company culture. 

In particular this links to the leadership positions in organisations where such development is essential to support the effectiveness of operations at sea and on shore. 

The Nautical Institute Foundation has been developing  a data gathering platform and questionnaire for use in understanding the leadership challenges which exist in the shipping Industry today. The questionnaire has been developed to gather essential data that will assist in understanding the gaps in leadership competency today and will, with further analysis, assist in understanding where targeted development can be developed by the Nautical Institute Foundation to raise the level of leadership competence required in this most  dynamic of industries. 

The key to meaningful success will be through an analysis of essential elements missing in today’s fast paced, process driven work environment. The Foundation believes that the focus on procedures and process has denied employees the freedom to understand and develop solutions to the myriad of challenges which are unforeseen in the Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous (VUCA) world that we now occupy. These challenges require agile tools and people to navigate it successfully, and to lead with Resilience (advancing despite adversity). 

The Foundation has developed an industry survey that will uncover the cultural and leadership challenges that exist within an organsiation so that interventions can be targeted to the appropriate areas, to identify and remove barriers that may be blocking progress and free up organsiations to do what is needed in this complex and challenging environment. 

Its Foundation’s business model is to work with companies to understand what challenges are affecting them the most. We take data and feedback from across the industry, including insurers, and discuss with operators and their employees where their biggest challenges lie. We then provide appropriate diagnostics and solutions to these challenges. 

The project on leadership has been a particularly complex one that required extensive industry discussion and consultation, including with insurers and regulatory bodies. This phase has now been largely completed and the Foundation is now engaging with organsiations to start studies on a fee for service basis that will lead to the development of “paid” solutions with associated income for the foundation. 

The foundation recognizes a significant debt has accrued to The Nautical institute accumulated as a result of R&D costs.  This debt will reduce over time as income will be earned as an analysis of each individual company is carried out using our new tools and associated solutions are devised. 

Much of the research costs have been offset by engaging with a third party who has agreed to cover development costs and will be an active participant in further activities.  Once the leadership project gathers momentum the foundation will be developing work in other areas to expand its scope and reach into the shipping domain.  It is anticipated the foundation will reduce its debt to the NI by half in 2025 and to zero by the end of 2026, thereafter making a surplus to support The Nautical Institute or other areas prioritized by the Trustees 

Future course work will accrue as the topic of leadership and its associated elements emerge from discussions with shipping entities. The scope for leadership development is large and the needs are deemed to be large as a consequence of  insurance company feedback. The aviation sector has recognized this as evidenced by the work of companies like Quintessence, an organsiation assisting companies develop their leadership competence.  The Nautical Institute Foundation is developing diagnostic tools to analyse this and tackle the frequently under estimated elements of the leadership challenge today turning a page of innovation and development that will continue to support the work of The Nautical Institute.

**The Nautical Institute Foundation** Annual report and financial statements 

**Year ended 31 December 2023** 

## Financial review 

The Charity incurred a deficit of £86,823 (2022: deficit of £55,986) in the year resulting in a liability at the year-end of £159,742 (2022: liability of £72,919).  The trustees are confident that the charity can still be considered a going concern as there is a written guarantee agreement with The Nautical Institute (registered charity number 1002462) who have agreed to guarantee any deficit up to the value of £250,000. Currently all income and expenditure is run through the Nautical Institute as well, as the charity is still in the process of opening a bank account. 

## Reserves policy 

The Charity is currently in the process of preparing a formal reserves policy. 

## Structure, governance & management 

The Nautical Institute Foundation is a charitable incorporated organisation and registered as a charity on 10 July 2020.  The Charity was established under a Consitution that sets out the objects and powers of the charity.  In the event of the company being wound up, the trustees have no liability. 

## Recruitment and appointment of Trustees 

The constitution requires a minimum of three and a maximum number of 12 trustees. 

Trustees are subject to re-election on a rolling three year basis at the Annual General Meeting, with a maximum of two consecutive terms. The Chief Executive Officer and the Honorary Treasurer of the Nautical Institute (registered charity number 1002462) are automatically trustees of the charity, and The Nautical Institute may appoint up to six of the trustees. 

## Statement of Board of Trustees’ responsibilities 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. 

Charity law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law they are required to prepare the financial statements in accordance with UK Accounting Standards and applicable law (UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland. 

Under charity law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a ‘true and fair’ view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the excess of expenditure over income for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- 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 its activities. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Charity’s transactions and 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 Charities Act 2011. They have general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to them to safeguard the assets of the Charity and to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities. 

The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the Charity’s website.

Legislation in the UK governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. In addition, the Trustees confirm that they are happy that the content of the Annual Review in pages 4-7 of this document as well as the legal and administrative information on page 3, meet the requirements of the Trustees’ Annual Report under charity law. 

They also confirm that the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the accounts and comply with the Charity’s governing document, the Charities Act 2011, the ‘Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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) second edition (effective 1 January 2019)’, and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

**The Nautical Institute Foundation** Annual report and financial statements 

**Year ended 31 December 2023** 

## **Independent examiner’s report** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Nautical Institute Foundation (charity number 1190343) for the year ended 31 December 2023 set out on pages 10 to 17. 

## Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner 

The CIO’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act). The CIO’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act; 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under 

- section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act; and, 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

This report, including my statement, has been prepared for and only for the CIO’s trustees as a body. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the CIO’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the CIO and the CIO’s trustees as a body for my examination work, for this report, or for the statements I have made. 

## Basis of independent examiner’s statement 

My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity Commission.  An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the CIO and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records.  It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. 

The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## 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: 

- accounting records were not kept in respect of the CIO as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

- the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

**•** 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.

**Year ended 31 December 2023** 

**The Nautical Institute Foundation** Annual report and financial statements 

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, other than highlighting the following aspect of the accounts. 

As independent examiner I would like to draw attention to the narrative around going concern which forms part of the accounting policy note (note 1) of the statutory accounts (page 12) and the additional note around the guarantee (note 10 on page 17) which explains why the trustees have prepared on the going concern basis. Following additional assurances from the trustees we are willing to agree with their conclusion that the charity can be considered a going concern.

**The Nautical Institute Foundation** Annual report and financial statements 

**Year ended 31 December 2023** 

## **Notes to the financial statements** 

## 1.    Accounting policies 

Basis of preparation of the financial statements 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with ‘Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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) second edition (effective 1 January 2019)’, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), including Update Bulletin 1, the Charities Act 2011. 

The effect of any event relating to the year ended 31 December 2023, which occurred before the date of approval of the financial statements by the Board of Trustees has been included in the financial statements to the extent required to show a true and fair view of the state of affairs at 31 December 2023 and the results for the year ended on that date. 

Using the exemption available to smaller charities, the Board of Trustees has chosen not to include a Statement of Cash Flows within the financial statements. 

The functional currency of the Charity is sterling and amounts in the financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound. 

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below.  These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated. 

## Going concern 

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as the Board of Trustees is confident that future reserves and future income is more than sufficient to meet current commitments. The Charity incurred a deficit of £86,823 (2022: deficit of £55,986) in the year resulting in a liability at the year-end of £159,742 (2022: liability of £72,919). The trustees are confident that the charity is still concerned a going concern as there is a written guarantee agreement with The Nautical Institute (registered charity number 1002462) who have agreed to guarantee any deficit up to the value of £250,000. Currently all income and expenditure is run through the Nautical Institute as well, as the charity continues to be unsuccessful in being able to open a bank account. 

## Legal status 

The Nautical Institute Foundation is a charitable incorporated organisation registered in England & Wales and meets the definition of a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The registered office is c/o The Nautical Institute, 202 Lambeth Road, London, SE1 7LQ. 

## Fund Accounting 

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. 

Restricted funds are funds that are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or that have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. There are currently no restricted funds held by the Charity. 

## Income 

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance indicators attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably. 

Donations are recognised in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when entitled, receipt is probable and when the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Gift aid receivable is included when claimable.

**Year ended 31 December 2023** 

**The Nautical Institute Foundation** Annual report and financial statements 

## 1.    Accounting policies (continued from previous page) 

Income (continued from previous page) 

Income from charitable activities, including course and other fees, is credited to the Statement of Financial Activities when received or receivable whichever is earlier, unless it relates to a specific future period or event, in which case it is deferred. 

## Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category.  Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

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, those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them and an allocation of governance costs. 

Support costs are allocated between governance costs and other support costs. Governance costs comprise those costs involving the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulations and good practice. Other support costs relate to the administrative costs of running the charity and are allocated to charitable activities accordingly. 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of expenditure for which it is incurred. 

## Tangible fixed assets and depreciation 

All assets costing more than £500 are capitalised. There are no assets held over this amount currently. 

## Cash at bank and in hand 

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash in hand, deposits with banks and funds that are readily convertible into cash at, or close to, their carrying values, but are not held for investment purposes. 

## Debtors 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount is applied. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## Creditors 

Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party, and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. 

## Critical estimates and judgements 

In preparing financial statements it is necessary to make certain judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts recognised in the financial statements. In the view of the Trustees in applying the accounting policies adopted, no judgements were required that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements nor do any estimates or assumptions made carry a significant risk of material adjustment in the next financial year. 

## Financial instruments 

Basic financial instruments are measured at amortised cost other than investments which are measured at fair value.
