THE BLANDFORD TRUST

Annual Review

Year to 31[st] December 2020

SUMMARY

In overall terms, the year has been one of Consolidation in Investment terms whilst maintaining the planned level of Benefactions.

Our portfolio is constantly monitored, the Brokers have clear instructions as to our attitude to risk. We are in a suitably defensive position in respect of the level of our income and we should be able to weather any significant falls in the Market as and when they occur.

INVESTMENTS

The Brokers have monitored the Market and during the year and have accepted losses of £37,591 .

Our portfolio which was valued on 31[st] December 2020 at £654k…………which , given the difficulties as a result of Covid is considered reasonable

INCOME

Our income fell from £35k in 2018 to £31k in 2020 . The running yield is projected as being about £30k which is in line with our instructions.

BENEFACTIONS

In 2020 our Benefactions amounted to £34k………which sum, with our Trustee’s expenses, meant that in overall terms, we expended slightly more than our income for the year. This situation was anticipated and our underlying level of capital is considered acceptable and in line with our philosophy.
