The Balance Sheet – Useful Tool? • Understanding Balance Sheet should be key to the
role of Finance and Treasury Management Officers.• Assists in:-
Reviewing/understanding overall financial position Identifying trends and movements between years Identifying potential treasury risks Identifying options for future treasury strategy

What does the Balance Sheet tell you about treasury position?
It is a position statement providing information of financial position at the year – endIt includes:
Reserves and Balances Cash investments Capital (indebtedness)……… and related treasury
position (borrowings) Working capital (debtors and creditors)
But, it can also tell you a lot more!

• Level of under-borrowing now totals over £1bn• ………. and increased in 20 authorities in 12/13• Average under-borrowed position 8% (7% in
2011/12)• Borrowing requirement fell in 6 authorities

Treasury Considerations and Risks?
Defer borrowing in current interest rate environment?
What if rates rise further?
Impact of utilising reserves – Investment balances fall?
Helps to reduce credit risk?
…….But when will cash run out?
Where will interest rates be when need to borrow?
Impact of CFR falling, where capital plans are reduced?
Affordability!

Key Variables/Risks• MPC forward guidance - investment returns low for 3 years
Strengthens case to postpone borrowing• Investment returns above forecast will skew towards
earlier borrowing• Rising fixed interest rates will skew towards earlier
borrowing• Pessimists will borrow• Optimists will postpone

Current Borrowing Process• Typically Annuity Loans• Matched to cost of individual asset• Matched to asset life• Repayment as per annuity profile• Prudential Code• Minimum Revenue Provision• No account of interest rates?• Borrow for cash flow purposes• Optimal Funding?

Key Outputs – Borrow 10 Year Fixed PWLB
![Page 23: Alternative Approaches To Capital Financing](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568168b8550346895ddf99d7/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Key Outputs – Borrow 25 Year Fixed PWLB25 year Fixed Borrowing currently against the forecast would cost in first 4.5 years £1,670,000
Postponing borrowing 4 years would cost over the 4.5 years £200,000Net Gain of £1,470,000
In order to make it neutral to borrow now, over the 4.5 years,investment rates would need to be higher by:At 2 years from now (based on investment period of cash) 3.880%At 3 years from now (based on investment period of cash) 3.883%At 4 years from now (based on investment period of cash) 4.000%
Alternatively the savings gained in the early years would underwritethe increased cost of the loan for:At 2 years from now 17.500 yrsAt 3 years from now 23.857 yrsAt 4 years from now 13.364 yrs

Longer term planning and investment challenges…..
• Shorter term horizon for capital planning
• Clamp down on Capital Programme and focused on year 1
• Significant slippage in the Capital Programme
• Cap on borrowing and seeking shorter term savings from existing borrowing
• Capital divorced from the revenue position
• Under spend against budget, increase in reserves
![Page 37: Alternative Approaches To Capital Financing](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568168b8550346895ddf99d7/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Enabling Investment …
• Create room in revenue position for investment
• Invest through partnerships with shared responsibility
• Use reserves strategically to pump prime
• Use reserves on a pay back basis for future sustainability
• Examine all investment, asset and funding models

Longer Term Planning … Plan for capital investment over 5 – 10 years
Model the impact of capital ambition:
Growth – new businesses, new jobs, housing
Funding streams?
Income streams – revenue and capital
Service cost reduction – part of transformation
Service increase – infrastructure etc
