FINANCIAL REVIEW

Investment House & Policy

All Institution investments have been, since 2002, managed by BlackRock as part of the Armed Forces Charities Growth & Income Fund (formerly the Armed Forces Common Investment Fund).

The Objective of the Fund is unchanged and seeks to provide a return on investment (net of fees) over a period of 5 or more consecutive years beginning at the point of investment, generated through an increase to the value of the assets held by the Fund and/or income received from those assets. The Fund has a flexible approach to asset allocation and seeks to achieve its investment objective through a variety of asset classes. The Fund is actively managed, and this may vary without limitation depending on market conditions and other factors at the Investment Manager's (IM) discretion in accordance with the Fund's investment policy.

Investment Performance

Investments delivered dividends of £44,121 in 2025 (2024: £41,364). During the period 1 January to 31 December 2025, the performance of the distribution units in the fund was +12.8% (2024: +8.1 %) after fees and expenses.

Reserves Policy

The Reserves Policy remains unchanged; to maintain at least 12 months operating costs in reserve and an additional element to mitigate against the withdrawal of MoD donated assets. The total reserves figure is therefore assessed as c£600K. The Institution's current free reserves are £931,166 (2024: £929,412) which Trustees consider is consistent with this policy. Current restricted reserves are £572,933 (2024: £572,933).
