City of London Endowment Trust for St. Paul’s Cathedral
Trustees’ Report
Introduction
The Trustees are pleased to present their report together with the financial statements of the Trust for the year ended 31 December 2022.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 (FRS102 SORP) effective from 1 January 2019, and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
Structure, governance and management
The Trust was formed under the terms set out in the Deed of Trust dated 5 May 1982. Control over policy is vested in the Trustees. New Trustees are appointed by a majority vote of existing Trustees.
Trustees
The Trustees who have held office during 2022 to the date of this report are noted on page 1.
The Trustees meet formally at least twice a year. At these meetings, representatives of the Fund Managers attend to review the Trust’s investments. From time to time, individual Trustees are appointed to ad hoc committees to carry out specific tasks for the Trustees. All policy decisions are taken by the Trustees and contact is maintained between the Chairman and the Secretary.
Appointment of Trustees
There shall be at least three Trustees and not more than nine, and the power of appointing new or additional Trustees shall be vested in the serving Trustees. Any serving Trustee may nominate a prospective Trustee who will be interviewed prior to appointment. When interviewed, the prospective Trustee will be apprised of the objectives and working of the Trust and Trustees will be selected for their knowledge and experience, particularly of investment and charitable matters. To date, Trustees have not felt the need to attend formal training courses relating to the duties and responsibilities of Trustees because of their existing experience.
Principal Risks
The Trustees review at least annually the risk analysis register identifying the risks to which the Trust is exposed and have taken steps to mitigate these risks wherever possible. The major risks identified relate to investment house fraud or failure, and an investment manager failing to recognise market changes or performing badly. These risks have been mitigated by dividing funds between two portfolios, holding at least two Trustee meetings each year attended by the investment managers, and by distributing investment managers’ reports at least quarterly. The risk of cyber-attack has also been identified and the fund managers have provided a statement of their controls in this area.

Trustees’ Report

Objectives and activities
The Trust was established in order to endow the Cathedral Church of St. Paul in London (the “Cathedral”) by raising a Trust Fund from the City of London.
The objects of the Trust, as set out in the Deed of Trust dated 5 May 1982 are:
-
for payment of costs and expenses in connection with St. Paul’s
-
for payment of costs and expenses in connection with the buildings and accommodation at the Deanery, Amen Court and the Chapter House provided for the clergy and lay officials serving St. Paul’s Cathedral
-
for payment of costs and expenses in connection with the running of St. Paul’s Cathedral Choir School
-
for payment of stipends and expenses of the clergy and lay officials serving St. Paul’s Cathedral
-
for payment of costs and expenses in connection with the provision of music for St. Paul’s Cathedral
-
for payment of wages for the vergers and all other staff employed therein
-
for the preservation, maintenance and improvement of the Fabric of St. Paul’s Cathedral
-
for general charitable purposes.
Annual income from this Trust Fund – and, at the discretion of the Trustees, some or all of its capital – is available to assist St. Paul’s to continue its essential work and meet the running expenses of its day to day activities.
The objective of the Trustees is to make grants to St. Paul’s Cathedral in accordance with these objectives and under the Investment and Distribution Policy set out below.
Investment and Distribution Policy
The financial objective of COLET is at least to maintain the real value of the Trust’s assets whilst generating a stable and sustainable return to fund grants to St. Paul’s Cathedral. Since 2020, the Trust’s investments have been invested in two investment funds: the Sarasin Endowments Fund and the Rathbone Active Income & Growth Fund.
The Trustees meet at least twice a year to review the portfolio, including an analysis of return, risk and asset allocation. Performance is monitored against agreed market benchmarks and against the investment objective of CPI plus 4% over the long term. The investment managers (Sarasin & Partners and Rathbone Brothers) are required to present to the Trustees at these meetings. The Trustees believe that all investments held or acquired during the year comply with the investment powers as described in the Trust deed.
In May 2023, the Trust’s Investment and Distribution Policy was updated to set a minimum level of distributions. Under the updated policy, the Trustees’ agreed a distribution yield of at least 3% annually (to be reviewed each year). This policy will be used by the Trustees in determining annual grants to St Paul’s Cathedral from 1 January 2023 onwards.
Achievements and performance
For the year-ended 31 December 2022, the return achieved by the Trust’s investments was approximately -9.0%. This was significantly below the level of UK CPI, with high global energy costs being a key factor in driving inflation (UK CPI reached 11.1% in October 2022). The continuing war in the Ukraine, sanctions from the West, high energy and commodity prices and the aftermath of the Covid-19 virus all contributed to inflation and negatively impacted investment performance in 2022.
As at May 2023, 2.0% remains the Bank of England’s CPI target and the latest UK Office of Budget Responsibility forecast (March 2023) predicts that inflation will fall back to 2.9% by the end of 2023. Despite the adverse

Trustees’ Report
_________ performance of the Trust’s investments compared to CPI in 2022, the Trustees consider it remains appropriate to target growth at above the level of inflation in the long term.
Financial review
A full breakdown of income and expenditure is set out on page 10 of the accounts.
Grants to St. Paul’s Cathedral are made from unrestricted funds, which have been established from general reserves and the investment income from the Trust’s investments. In addition to this, the Trustees also administer the Bill Miller Fund, which was set-up to support an organ scholar at the Cathedral.
The Trust’s investment portfolio as a whole (total return) fell approximately 9.0% over the year and the Trust recorded a net investment loss of £1,392,850 (2021: net investment gain of £878,911). This performance reflected the conditions in the financial markets, with both equity markets and fixed income markets suffering. UK Government Bonds fell by 23.8% in the year, on the back of rising interest rates to tackle inflation; and US equities showed negative returns of -7.8% (S&P 500 (GBP adjusted)). Outside of the US, the developed markets fared slightly better, with UK equities slightly up on the year, lifted by energy companies (FTSE All Share rose 0.3%).
The Trust’s total income in 2022 was £326,714 (2021 - £308,020). Total expenditure was £317,668 (2021 - £568,915), which included a grant of £294,000 to St. Paul’s Cathedral for general purposes (2021 - £295,000) and £6,000 towards the organ scholar costs (2021 - £6,000). In 2021 a special grant of £250,000 to the Cathedral was also awarded to provide financial support through the Covid-19 pandemic. Net income before investment gains and losses was £9,046 (2021 – net expenditure of £260,895).
Realised investment gains were £1,235 (2021 – realised gains of £1,611) and revaluation losses were £1,394,085 (2021 gains of £877,300).
As at 31 December 2022 the net assets of the Trust totalled £10,630,333. This compares with a total at the previous year end of £12,014,137.
Reserves Policy
The Trustees aim to maintain sufficient unrestricted reserves to be able to continue appropriate support to St. Paul’s in periods of fluctuations in the Trust’s income.
Plans for future and post balance sheet events
As noted on page 3, in May 2023, the Trust’s Investment and Distribution Policy was updated to set a minimum level of distributions. Under the updated policy, the Trustees’ agreed a distribution yield of at least 3% annually (to be reviewed each year). This policy will be used by the Trustees in determining annual grants to St Paul’s Cathedral from 1 January 2023 onwards.

Trustees’ Report

Statement of Trustees' responsibilities
Law applicable to Charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Trust at the end of the financial year, and of its income and expenditure for the financial year. In preparing those 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 accounting standards and Statements of Recommended Practice have been followed subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Trust will continue in existence.
The Trustees are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Trust and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011 and the Charities SORP (FRS 102). They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Trust and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The Trustees have complied with their duty per the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to Public Benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.
Auditors
Mazars LLP has signified its willingness to continue in office, and a resolution proposing their re-appointment as auditors will be put to the next Trustees meeting.

City of London Endowment Trust for St. Paul’s Cathedral
Independent Auditor’s Report to the Trustees of the City of London Endowment Trust for St. Paul’s Cathedral
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of City of London Endowment Trust for St. Paul’s Cathedral (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31 December 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion, the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charity’s affairs as at 31 December 2022 and of its income and expenditure for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Trustees of the City of London Endowment Trust for St. Paul’s Cathedral
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the Trustees’ Report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees’ Report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the Trustees’ Report; or
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of Trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 5, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our
7
City of London Endowment Trust for St. Paul’s Cathedral
Independent Auditor’s Report to the Trustees of the City of London Endowment Trust for St. Paul’s Cathedral
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial statements.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud.
Based on our understanding of the charity and its sector, we considered that non-compliance with the following laws and regulations might have a material effect on the financial statements: employment regulation, health and safety regulation, and anti-money laundering regulation.
To help us identify instances of non-compliance with these laws and regulations, and in identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect to non-compliance, our procedures included, but were not limited to:
-
Inquiring of management and, where appropriate, those charged with governance, as to whether the charity is in compliance with laws and regulations, and discussing their policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations;
-
Inspecting correspondence, if any, with relevant licensing or regulatory authorities;
-
Communicating identified laws and regulations to the engagement team and remaining alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout our audit; and
-
Considering the risk of acts by the charity which were contrary to applicable laws and regulations, including fraud.
We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the preparation of the financial statements, such as tax legislation, pension legislation, the Charities Act 2011 and the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice.
In addition, we evaluated the trustees’ and management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements, including the risk of management override of controls, and determined that the principal risks related to posting manual journal entries to manipulate financial performance, management bias through judgements and assumptions in significant accounting estimates, income recognition (which we pinpointed to the cut-off assertion), and significant one-off or unusual transactions.
Our audit procedures in relation to fraud included but were not limited to:
-
Making enquiries of the trustees and management on whether they had knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud;
-
Gaining an understanding of the internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud;
-
Discussing amongst the engagement team the risks of fraud; and
-
Addressing the risks of fraud through management override of controls by performing journal entry testing.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of irregularities including fraud rests with management. As with any audit, there remained a risk of non-detection of irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations or the override of internal controls.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

5. Unrestricted funds
The Trust was established in order to endow the Cathedral Church of St. Paul in London by raising a Trust Fund from the City of London. Both income from the Trust Fund and the capital of the Trust Fund are available, at the discretion of the Trustees, to support St. Paul’s in continuing its essential work, within the objects of the Trust.
In the past, the funds of the Trust have included designated funds set aside out of general unrestricted funds for specific purposes. There are currently no funds set aside to designated funds.
6. Restricted funds
