to fill and we are booking at ways lo provide in-house support and leaming to
help grow and develop less experienced candidates into these roles. The

in 2024.
lrnplement our fom)al govemanco review and ensure the voice of customers is
heard and influences decision making - The governance review carried out in
2022 has been implemented. The main change has been a revised committee
structure that h88 operated throughout 2023. Both the Board of Trustees 8nd

A8sur8nce Strategy. We now have a clearer understsnding of our iisk appelile

Flnanclal Revl
The Slalemenl of Comprehensive Income for the year ended 31 st December 2023,
shows a group surplus of £3.8m compared to a group surplus of £23.3m for 2022. The
main changes lo note are.. -
In line with the requirements of the Housing SORP and in recognition that Bvr
has, through it8 subsidiary BVE, continued letting some properties on a Market
Rented Ba816. we have reviewed all of our propertle8 to confirm that the
category they sil under in our accounts is a fair representation of their purpose.
Through Ihis exercise we confirmed that all the homes we are letting on a
market rented basis should b8 categorised a¥ Investment Properties.
Alongside this, in reviewing our commercial and agricultural assets, we have
identified 4 shops which we continue holding for profit gener81ion purposes,
rather than lo ensure our communities have access to important amenities in
their neighbourhood. This means we have continued lo ¢aleg0ri5e these 4
shops as Investment Properties loo. All our other shops, offices and agricultural
holdings remain in line with their original social Purpose, but this review will be
Page116

undertaken e8ch year to ensure that remains the case. This review means that
folk)wing an extemal Tevaluation exercise, we are now recognising £7m of
a6sets as Inveslment Properties, up from £4.2m in 2022.
Under accounts'ng reqU1￿MentS, the Group has to account for the fair value of
its portfolio of interesl rate hedglng instruments. Oetsils of these hedging
instruments are set out in note 17. The movemenl in the fair value of these
hedging instruments over the c￿r$e of the year is refiected in the Statement of
Comprehensive Income. The movemenl for 2023 was a negative value of
£1.3m compared to a positive movement of £17.7m for 2022. Such rrK>vements
reflect the changing market expeclalions regarding futUT& interest rates. This
swing in the valuation of our hedging instruments C8U6es a Signifi￿nt decrease
in our surplus for 2023.
In 2023 Bwr sold fewer a$5et$ Ihousing properties, land and other assel8),
£420k cornpared lo 2022 £754k. BW does not in the standard course of
business gell assets, but we do undertake Strategic disposals where assets no
long8r deliver against our strategic aims. Isee Note 581
lthi181 the above accounting action negatively impacled our surplus position for 2023,
we are happy that our operational performance was strong and in line with
expectations and not Signilicanlty altered from previous yeaT5. In 20231£29.86ml our
turnover was up on 20221£27.387m), mainty due to rent increases in a year ol high
inflation, and our Group Operating surplus was up from £4.962m in 2022 to £6.661m
in 2023 {8ee Note 1). In line with our strategic plan, we saw the Surplus from Market
Rented homes rise from £283k in 2022 to £597k in 2023. Due to Significant financial
PTe8sures driven by the costwof-living crisis and a below inflation rent increase, we had
lo cut our charitable community Spend from £800k in 2022 to £630k in 2023 {see Note
l) and we cut of corporate costs, by removing the Busine8s Development Team from
our structure, 58ving £281k in expenditure {see Note 1}. These actions helped
incre88e our operating 8urplus from continuing activities, despite the challenging
environment {see Note 11

All decigion-making risks are considered in the context of the 8VT's risk appelile. To
assist this further the Board has identified a number of risk appetite themes, driven by
Ihe organisalion values, mission and corporate aims, against which they have assigned
a risk appelite level. With this knO￿edge the Board is more easily able to determine
how il responds to risks associated with a decision and so make best use of mitigation
r8sources.
8VT's risk appetite themes and descriptions were delemiined by the Board after
considenng key negative and positive events that might affect the achievement of the
corporate aims. These are presented, in no particular order of priority. in the following
ststements.
We have a minlmal appelile for legal and regulatory risk and will tske a
comply or explain approach as appropriale as we consider the impact ol
legislation andlor regulation in decision making around all of our activities.
We have a cautlous appetite for customer expèrlence and servlce quallty
risk. We want to innovate to drive improvements but will lake a balanced
approach to reduce any potential risk of damage to our exists'ng Customer
seivices.
We have a minimal appetite for business transformation & change risk and
will focu5 on embedding our continuous improvement model to improve and
transfomi what we do now.
We have 8 cautlOUS appetite for a83èt management risk and will focus our
Page119

resource8 on investment in our exlsting stock wlth appropriate appraisal ol
disposal or replacement options. We will not seek devekyment opportunities
that could undermine this investment.
We have a cautious appetite for ICTldigital transfomiatlon risk and will
invest to protect data and systems. Where possible we will enhance service
delivery through mode81 investment and smaller scale projects. We will be a
follower rather than a leader in digital transformation.
We have an open appetite for profit for purpose risk and are open to this
where it could improve our financial position and where the opportunty aligns
to our mission and aims values.
We have a cautlou$ appelite for development & growth risk whilst we focus
our resources on existing asset investment and will only respond to nurturing
future pipellne opportunities.
We have a cautlous appetite for envlronmental sustalnablllty risk and will
take incremental steps towards improving sustainability and reducing our
Carbon footprint. We will do thi8 primarily through component ￿n￿als, low-
C8rbon technology 8nd bir￿dIversity projects. We will be a follower rather than
a leader in this field.
We have a cautiOU8 appetite for flnanclal ro8111onc• r15k and want to ensure
our long-term future. We will consider investment e.g. in projects or exi8ting
ag$els where these deliver our mission and aims but will use our Financial
Golden Rules to control risk exposure.
We have a cautlouj appetite for reputstlon risk and will focus on delivering
good quality services and achieving high levels of customer satisfaction. Our
reputation includes being innovalive and we will not be afraid to innovate to

We have an open appetite for ￿Ople (employee) risk and will innovate to

All decision5 made by BVT are in line with the Board'8 stated risk appelile.
The Board ol consider the following to be significanl risks facèd by the
Organisalion, with significant control and mitigation actions having been brought to
bear in these areas. Not all of these risks have been miligaled, avoided or transferred
to the levels the Board believes is appropriate, so they Temain live on our risk regisler,
with on%oing work monitored.

As a ch8rltable trusl with competing demands on our finite resources, we recogni8e
the importance of achieving Value for Money IVIM). Our VIM strategy gets out our

continuou5 improvement. Over the past four years we have developed a Suite of
perfomiance measures for each service area that enables us to measure the
effectiveness and efficiency of their operation. We are continuing lo develop and
enhance our economy measures al a se￿ice level. All KPIS and economy measures
are captured in our planning and performance framework with front line staff actively
involved in seth'ng targets for their Service area.

VIM Metrics
To help drive Vfm in BVT we use the nine metrics set by the Regulator for Social
Housing together wrth additional metrics. These complement a range of performance
measurement tools in operation across BVT.
The table on the following 2 pages sets out our trends on past performance, our
performance against targels in 2023 and our targets for 2024.
We reviewed our Peer Group in 2022 and are using the same Peer Group in 2023 to
ensure consistence and we are confldent they remain 8 fair and balanced group to
judge oursefves against.
We have opted to choose associations based on the following characleristics.
At least 50% of Iheir homes are in the West Midlands.
They are a traditional housing as8OCl8l￿n, or any local authonty stock Iransfer
occurred at lea8112 years ago.
They have between 1,500 and 15,000 home5.
No more than 5% of their stock is 5UPPOrted housing.
No more than 15% of their stock is housing for older people.
This gave us a group of nine local Housing Associations who are known to us and
against who we believe we can fairly benchmark OUT Perfomiance. These Assoclations
are.
Aspire Housing Limited
Black Country Housing Group Llmlled
Connexus Homes Limited
Honeycomb Group Limited
Rooftop Housing GTOUP Limrted
The Pioneer Housing and Community Group Limited
The Wrekin Housing Group Limited
TTenl & Dove Housing Limited
WATMOS Community Homes
When reviewing the sector Score card. il is important to nole that BVT is comparing
our December 2023 year end to Ihe March 2023 year end of our Peer Group and the
Sector as a whole. This is the most up lo date information available for Bvf to
benchmark against, but the lime difference is an important consider8tion. especialty in
a period of rapidly rising costs and increasing investment in existin9 stock levels king
seen across the sector.
In our comparison5we use the median value of our Peers and the Sector as a whole.
The onty exception lo this is Investment in Community Development. In this area
many ofour Peers and many in the sector as 8 whole make no investment. This would
glve us zero as a comparator. We, therefore, use the mean number as a comparator
in this area.

Revlèw of Perforniance in 2023 and
riorities for 2024
Overvlew of 2023
2023 was a challenging year for most organisations and Bwf was no
exception. We had hoped for a more settled period following the
pandemic, which would have been more conducive with our aim of
settlin9 into delivedng the priorrties in the Corporate Plan. However,
we quickty carne to understand that the tight labour market. challenging
suppty chains, slowty falling inllalion, high energy costs and interest
rate hikes would again make this a difficult year.
Wa Saw rel8tivety high levels of Stafflumover and there remained some
difficulty in recruiting slaff, particulatly in technical roles and skilled
maintenance roles. We therefore had to enhance salaries, improve the
flexibility of our employment offer, seek new and innovative ways of
recruiting, and ensure that BVT remained an 8mployer of choice lo
compete in 8 difficull market. Our drive lo remain an employer of
choice was rewarded with our slaff survey results showing that980￿ of
our staff were satlsfied with as an employer, 990A understood and
97019 were inspired by our corporate aims.
Demand for seThices from customers continued lo incTea88, with the
cost-of-livSng Crisis and newty identlfied damp. mould and condensalion
Issues, driving higher levels of responsive repairs and general
increaged demand levels on our customer services. The increase in
reports of damp, mould and condensation required additional
investmenl and the developmenl of a specialist team to deal with th58
issue occur during 2023 and beyond.
Our customers continued lo be impacted by the cosl-of-living crisls end
80ughl increasing levels of support from B￿, especially for the
services we provide around financial advice, eneryy efficiency adv¢ce
and emergency financial crisis fund5.
The action we needed to undertake to ensure we met our customers,
n88ds did impact on our costs. Our headline Social housing cost per
unit was £5,131 per unit against OUT target of £5,043, with additional
repairs spending, especi81ty on damp and mould action being the main
driver of the increase.
lan
In line with our Corporate Plan 2023-2032 we will spend 2024 and 2025
focusing on ensuring all of our services are great quality and improving
our customer's experience. This means our Vfm actions are generally
focused on service improvements, not financial savings. This is not lo
say we will not continue to ensure all the services we offer and the
goods and seThices we buy are the best value we can achieve, but lo
Pa8e126

highlight that we are nol seeking to cut costs and reduce services,
where doing so, would lower our service quality or lessen our ability to
identify, develop and deliver improvements.
Along with mosl other social housing providers and charitable trusts the
Board of BW have had lo make some hard decisions and reach trade-
offs be￿een competing priorrties. Overall, the Board decided Ihal we
must m8inlain our ambtlious investment programme in our existing
homes, make rnore money 8vailable for readive repairs and customer
services, as this was the clear message, we received from listening to
our tenant's voice. We have also had lo invesl in a specialist Team lo
identify and deal with any issues related to damp, mould, and
condensation. Alongside this we are continuing our drive to improve
our environmental standing and planning our joumey to carbon
neutrality. To do this we had lo keep costs low in other areas and
maintain our corporale overhegd at a very low level. The Board have
also decided lo strategically dispose of some POQTty performing assets
as they bec0rn6 vacanl. This wim be around £2.25m worth of propertl8S
in 2024, which may equate to around 7 homes. This is fewer homes
than BW will add to ils social housing numbers in 2024. We will
choose Ihe small number of homes we will dispose of after considering
how well they can meet our future environmental expectations. How
Ihey sil in our geographic spread of homes, with our focus remaining
on pepFer potting tenure types to ensure social housing tenants are
seen as equal members ofourwider community. Wewill also consider
the likely future use of any homes we sell, and whi181 we cannot
guarantee future use, we will seek to sell homes that are m08t likely to
be attractive lo owner occupiers and less likely lo attract investors who
may nol be completed in 8ync with the wi¢Jer community. Alongside
this the Board will continue to convert a small number of vacant
propertie8 to market rent, further their drive for increa8ed returns from
our commercial assets and maintain new development spending at a
lower level.
Bu81ness Health
Performance in 2023
Our operating margin for social housing improved in 2023. wilh it
being better than oui targel and beller than our Peers and the Sector
median.
Our EBITDA MRI Inte￿$t cover has fallen below our Peers, but this
is in line with our strategic plan, as we continue our he8vy investment

above our largel, as we perfomied better than budget in operational
activities and were unable lo fulw deliver our capital improvernents
programme due lo supply line issues. We anticipate E8ITDA MRI
Page127

falling in 2024 and we expect our PeeTS to also show falls as
inveslment and costs rise.
This all indicates Ihat BW is In a positlve business health posltlon,
despite the challenging year that 2023 turned out lo be. Although we
accept we have less headroom to absorb new finanual shocks that
we have had in the past.
Prloriti•• for 2024
In Settino our 2024 budget the Board of accepted that our costs
for repairs, investment in our homes and customer services would all
se, as we are detemiined to deliverwhal OUT customers want despite
rising costs. This means we expect a slight ￿uctIon in our business
health measures, but to stay well within parameters that are
acceptable to our Board. As we have an extensive programme of
investing in our homes for 2023 and beyond. we expect lo see
further reduction in Interest Cover IEBITDA MRI) but have ensured
this is well within our Bank Covenants and Golden Rules.

twenty-one were transferred to Bltr for social rent.
These Iwenty -￿8 hones were below Ihe level we anticipated

In 2024 we will be driving hard to keep the number of days properties

impact on families in housing need who want to move into new homes

Outcome• ddlvered
Performance In 2023
We were pleased that in 2023, despite supply chain and recruitrnent
ch811enges. we delivered on the v8sI majority of our reinveslmenl
programme, ensuring we delivered promised improvements to our
tenants, homes.
In common with most of the sector we find our overall satisfaction
rating falling. with a reduction from 80Vo in 2022 10 77% in 2023. With
our focus on service improvement and the cu81omer experience wè
p18n to See th18 rise back to 80% in 2024.
We regularly su￿eY our tenants and one question we ask, 18 "how
881isfied were you with your most recent repairf,. The answer lo this
question leave8 us just sligttlly short of our target, although we are
above the median ofour Peers and the sector as a vthole. We believe
we can improve further if we get Tepairs done right first time and we
plan a "complete seNice revie￿. of our repairs service in 2024.
Priorities lor 2024
We will be looking to invest more than ever in improving our exisling
homes and we will overcome the challenges we have with recruiting
and retaining specialist assel management staff lo ensure this is
achieved.
We will focus on getting more repairs comFAeted first time and will

Performance in 2023
Our headline social housing cosl per unit Tose in 2023 and we were
marginally {£88 per property) above our largel. However, we believed
we must deliver the services our tenanls required despite high
inflation causing rising costs. We ended 2023 with a cost £466 per
property above OUT Peers and £457 above the sector median, bul we
do believe all similar organisalions will see rising prices push up their
cost per unil, so 8 like-for-like measure at 2023 calendar year-end 18
likely to show we are closer lo the sector average that we appear to
be from these figures.
Our service charge costs are lower Ihan average, but here wé
recognlse that we are nol ch8rging lor some 5eTvices we deliver and
that there are some service level improvemen18 our tenants may find
beneficial if we were to charge for and delNerthem, such as addrtional
communal cleaning and gardening. We did see our expenditure on
service charges go above target in 2023, bul thi8 is reflective of our
drive to offer an improved service.
Our maintenance cost per unit 15 high 8gainsl our peers and the sector
median, although we accept that our historic housing stock and the
dated nature of our Peer comparison both contribut8 to this. In 2023
we worked hard to encourage tenants to highlight any concerns
around damp, mould, and condensation lo us, as we accepted this
hag been a hidden issue across the sector. Reacting lo these report8
drove up our costs in 2023 and will add even more expenditu￿ in
2024 bul we 8re determinecl lo get this right and ensure our tenanls
have their is8ues Identified and dealt wlth.
In 2023 our major repalrs Cost per unit was £1,899 8gain8t a target of
£1,853. This underspend was partly due lo our challenges in
recrurling qualified technical staff to run delivery programme5 and
also partly due to supply chain challenges. All work not deliVe￿d in
2023 will be caught up in our ￿ViSed plan for fvture year8.
Overheads as a percentage of tumover in 2023 was higher than
largel, although broadly in line with 2022. In thi5 area inflationary co81
rises for goods and seNices meant we could not find cost reduclions
as planned.
Prlorltlos for 2024
We will allow our headline social housing cost per unit and
rnanagemenl cost per unil to rise as we seek to offer the enhanced
service levels our communlties need during this economic crisi5.
Page130

We will seek to implement service charges for new tenant5 where we
have identified th8t services and satisfaction could be improved by
moving nearer to the sector average for seNice charge costs.
Our management cost per unrtwas slightly above our Peers bul below
Ihe sector median. We expecl to see this rtse onty slightty in line wlth
general cost increases in 2024.
In 2024 we continue have investment in our existing homes as a major
priority so we will see our major repairs cost per unit rise from £1,699
in 2023 to £2,691 in 2024.
With cost pressu￿9 on BW at very high levels and to 8n5ure we have
sufficient funds to deliver our priorities we will again keep our
overheads ag a percentage of lurnover very low. Our Target for 2024
is well below our Peers and below the gector medians.
Whi18t financial pressure on our tenants is extremeby high, we still
expect lo maintain rent collection levels in 2024 and lo keep void108S
low.

A series of policies and other documents und8Tpin the inlemal control prO￿s$ and
written procedures support these policies and documenls where appropnate.
These include rules, group standing orders and financial regulalions that are
regularty reviewed and approved by the 8oard. They are supported by other major
documents and practice5 such as the Corporate Plan, code of conduct,
performance management frarnewo￿, management delegation systems,
employment contracts, appraisals and monitoring processes and one-lo-one
reviews.
During 2023 we continued to a review 8 significant number of policles, with a
particular focus on health and safety policies which were all up lo dale at ye8r-
end. Audit and Assurance Commillee and 808rd reviewed the approval
delegations in place for policie8 in quarter 4 2023 to align delegations to the new
governance Structure following the governance review.
We continue to carry out process mapping to identify where efficiency and
effectiveness could be increa8ed. fhis was partrcularly applied lo damp, mould
and condensation processes during 2023.
Dats Breache•
Bvf'8 D8ta Protection Officèr manage8 and record8 all data breaches, both
inlemal and 8Xtemal, thal occur. On average, since we began recording, we have
8 dats breaches each year and over the last 2 years we have seen a reduction.
The process for reporting dala breaches 16 set out in the Data Breach Notificats'on
Procedure.
There were no data breach incldents in 2023 that required inloming the
Information Commissioner's Office {ICOI.
Spam emails are ever-presenl and do continue to pose a nsk. We have now
achieved Cyber Essenti81g Plus accreditation and online training has been
delivered to 8115taff to increase awareness of the issues th8t spam emails can
cause.
We are continually leaming from data breaches. There Is no blame associated
with breaches and we activety encourage staff to report all instances they are
Page134

involved in, with a key focu5 on learning from breaches to reduce the likelihood of
further breaches occurring.

New staff undergo the training during their induction.
Buglness Plannlng* Budgetlng and Performanc• M•nagem•ntlReporting
The annual business planning and budgeting process for 2023 was based on
achieving the strategic objectives in the Corporate Plan and managing the key
risks Ihal might impact on achieving th15.
There was regular reporting of both risk and perfom?ance acro35 Birr throughout
the year. The Standardised report templates were updated in 2023 and are in place
lo ensure that infomiation ig presented ciearfy 8nd con818tenlly 8Gr088 key i98ue8.
A robu81, busine8S-led approach to a quarterly performanc8 reporting cycle and
reporting from a suite of KPI measures is firnily e8t8bli8hed and include8 8pecific
Suites of KPIS for employer and landlord he8llh and safely compliance.

Risk & Assurance
The Risk and Assurance Strategy was refreshed in 2023 and new risk appelite
Btatements were developed jointly by the Executive team and the Board.
Page135

A Risk & Assurance Register is compiled and updated by the Executive Team to
help to facilitate the identification, assessment and ongoing monitoring of risks
significanl to Ihe organisation, also considering the need for further mitigation.
The Register was presented lo the Audit and Assurance Committee and to the
Board of Trustees each quarter in 2023.
Audlt & Assurance Committee
The Audit and Assurance Committee alerts trustees to any emerging issues or
concerns it has. In addition, the committee oversees intemal audit, external audit
and management responses as required in its review of intern81 controls. The
committee is therefore well-placed to provide advice and assurance lo Trustees
on the effectiveness of the inlemal control system, including Ihe organisalion's
system for the management of risk including the scope and effectiveness of the
strategy, policies and procedures.
Since the original Audit and Risk Committee was 8et up in 2017. it ha8 developed
ils role and has become an established part of the oversight of Internal controls,
most recently in 2023 following the 2022 govemance ￿VIeW where Ihe committee
became the Audlt and A89urance Committee ané refocu8ed its role.
Recnjitment took placa In 2023 and a naw Independent committee member was
recnJited who bring5 valuable skills and experience lo the committee.
The Committee met 4 times during 2023 and also held a jolnl rneeting with the
Finance and Investment Committe8 to review the annual financial slalemenls 8nd
exlernal audit ￿pOrt. The minules of all these meeling8 weR presented to the
Board of Trustee$.
As part of good governance, the Chair and members of the Audit and Assurance
Committee have r&gularfy met with both our Extemal and Intemal Auditors without
officers present lo gain independent assur8nce on B￿,5 controls over its
busines8.
Intèmal Audit Programme
Inlemal 8udit is an important element of the intemal control Process. Apart from
it8 norn￿1 risk driven programme of work. induding recommending improvements
to Service areas. internal audit is responsible for aspects of the annual review of
the effectiveness of Ihe intemal control system within the organisation, giving an
independent objective asse55rnent of the effectiveness of the risk management
and control proce55e5 operating at 8W.
The internal audit programme for 2023 was fully delivered and an Annu81 Internal
Audrf( Assurance Report will be presented to the Audit and Assurance Committee
and lo the Board of Trustees in March 2024. The Internal Audit opinion rating for
BVT in 2023 was 'moderale' in tems of the overall adequacy and effectiveness of
Page136

its framework of govemance, risk management and control. This rating is on
scale of unsatisfactory. limited, moderate and substantial.
The Audit and Assurance Committee look a robust role in term5 of ensuring
scrutiny and oversight of both the tracking and implementation of internal audit
recommendations through regular and rn0￿ detailed reporting of any outstanding
fundamental recommendations as part of the qu8rteTty Risk and Assurance
reports.
Extsrnal Audlt
External albdit provides feedback lo Ihe Board of Trustees on the operation of the
internal financial controls reviewed as part of the annual audit.
In May 2023, RSM UK issued their last Audrt Findings Report based on Bvf's
2022 financial slatemenls. RSM made one significanl control recommendation
and three other control recommendations ￿lch are being actively tracked by the
Audit and Assurance Committee.
BVT, BVD, 8VE and BWHS all received a clean audit opinion and there have been
no disagreements with management regarding financial reporting for the purpo8e
of i55uing the audit report.
Beever and Strulh8rs were appointed as Bwf'8 External Auditors in 2023 followlng
a prccurement exercise and will complete their first Audit Findings Report based
on BW'8 2023 financial statement8.
Thlrd Party Reports
Extemal assessmenls and advice provide additlOll81 and useful a85urance. Major
80urces include regulatory judgements and independent advice around
govemance, treasury management and health and safety.
Exiern81 experti8e and impartialty play an import8nl role in in 8UPPOrting BVT to

Lists of relevant legislation provided annually to support this statement are
provided to BW'S Audit & Assurance Committee and Board.
There is a section for compliance wtlh relev8nt legislation in Bvf's standard report
template so that any issues or concerns are clearty highlighted to Ihe Board and
Committees.
In November 2022. BW submitted a $eW-referral to the Regulator of Social
Housing of non-compliance with the Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alami
Regulations 2022. A detailed action plan was also provided to the Regulator who
confirmed that taking into account the information provided, BW had not breached
any of the regulatory standards. In 2023, BW met the compliance Tequirements
by the 30th September 2023 internal deadline.
A self-8sses8m8nt of compliance V￿th the Regulatory Standards was completed
In quarter 1 2023. There was one area of non-compliance with the standards
wh￿h is within the Governance and Financial Viabilty Standard. BW does not
fully compty with 118 adopted Code of Govemance as there are no set terms of
office for family trustees, bul this does comply with Bvf's Deed of Foundation.
The self-as5essment was approved by the 8oard of Trustees in March 2023.
The Regulator of Soclal Housing completed a financial stability check in quarter 4
2023 and subsequently regraded BW from a V1 to a V2 rating. The regulator
advised that the continued high levels of investment in BW'S existing stock had
reduced the EBITOA MRI interest cover melric significantly and as set out in OUT
30 year plan, would continue to keep at a reduced level for several years lo
Gome. The Regulator explained Ihal their internal working group recognised that
had pul in place a treasury rM)Sition that supported the business plan and
th81 this was a clear indication of good govemance and strong financial
managemenl. The Regulator made clear that they hold no concerns aboul BVT'S
ability to manage debt or maintain the investment levels we have set out, BW 18
one of a number of registered providers who have been regraded to a V2 rating,
which is still deemed as Compliant by the regulator. Learning from regulatory
downgrades in the Sector is included in the quarterly risk reports at Audit and
As8uranc8 Committee.
Preparations for the new Regulator of Social Housing consumer regulation regirne
comin9 into elfect in April 2024 a￿ well under way, with a December 2023
workshop facilitated by the Head of Goveinance and attended by the Executr've
team reviewing progress and further plans. Further preparations will continue in
quarter 12024.
All regulalory returns were submitted lo the Regulator of Social Housing in
compliance with the set deadlines, including new ￿tUrnS regarding damp and
mould and buildings above 11 m in height. All regulatory Teturns were subfnitted

to the Charlty Commlssion and Financial Conduct ALrthority IFCAI within the
required deadlines. Ofsted compliance was confirmed for both The Holdings and
the Shenley Out of School Club. There is ongoing monitoring of BW'S aclivtties
to ensure compliance wth Charity Commission charitable activity rules.
Effecliveness of Controls
Our risk and conlrol mechanisms are generally effective. This annual internal
controls certification process has highlighted no issues that were not previousty
identified through normal management processes.
The Executive team has ftviewed the effectiveness of the system of inlemal
controls, including the sources of assurance agreed by the Board. There is
sufficient evidence to confirm Ihat adequate systems of intemal control are in place
and operated throughout the year.
