1 Narrative Report Format of the Statement of Accounts The primary function of the London Pensions Fund Authority (LPFA) is as an Administering Authority within the Local Government Pension Scheme. The LPFA s Statement of Accounts for the financial year 2015/16 consists of: the Statement of Responsibilities the Annual Governance Statement three separate sets of financial statements: The Pension Fund accounts, consisting of; the Fund Account which shows the Fund s income and expenditure for the year the Net Assets Statement which shows the net assets of the Fund at 31 st March 2016 Notes to support the Pension Fund accounts The Operational Account and Residual Liabilities statements consist of: the Comprehensive Income and Expenditure Account which is a summary of the resources generated and consumed by the LPFA in the year. The statement shows the accounting costs in the year of providing services in accordance with the generally accepted accounting practices. The LPFA does not raise taxation to cover expenditure. The Balance Sheet which sets out the financial position of the LPFA at 31 st March 2016. The Balance Sheet shows the value as at the Balance Sheet date of the assets and liabilities recognised by the LPFA. The net assets of the LPFA (assets less liabilities) are matched by the reserves held by the LPFA. the Cash Flow Statement shows the changes in cash and cash equivalent assets of the LPFA during the reporting period. The statement shows how the LPFA generates and uses cash and cash equivalents by classifying cash flows as operating and financing activities. The overall total agrees to the Cash position shown in the balance sheet. the Movement in Reserves Statement shows the movement in the year on the different reserves held by the LPFA. Notes to support the accounts. Relationship to LPFA s Annual Report A copy of the LPFA s Statement of Accounts is issued as a financial report and forms part of the LPFA s Annual Report and Accounts, together with the other statutory documents and other information in line with best practice guidance. 3

Funding The LPFA incurs costs in the discharge of its functions as the administering authority of the Fund. These costs are detailed in the Operational Account. In accordance with the Local Government Pension Scheme (Management and Investment of Funds) Regulations 1998 (SI 1998/1831) as amended, the LPFA charges its costs to the Fund under its management as they are incurred and there is no formal recharge procedure. Any costs, charges and expenses incurred in administering the Residual Liabilities are met by the Levy on the Greater London and Inner London authorities. Review of the Statements The 2015/16 budget had initial approval from the Board in December 2014 and was submitted to the Mayor of London for comment. The final budget was approved by the Board on 3 rd February 2015. The budgets are monitored by budget holders and managers on a monthly basis with formal reporting to the Corporate Management Team and Board also on a monthly basis. The outturn of each reporting statement is summarised below. Pension Fund Pension Fund Actual Budget Variance 2015-16 2015-16 2015-16 000 000 000 Dealings with members and employers Contributions (160,151) (159,200) (951) Transfers in (36,265) (25,300) (10,965) Benefits Payable 241,310 249,800 (8,490) Transfers out 30,716 25,700 5,016 Net dealings with members and employers 75,610 91,000 (15,390) Management Expenses Investment management 30,651 29,700 951 Administration 4,685 4,600 85 Oversight & Governance 3,082 3,100 (18) Capital Funding Cost (169) 0 (169) Total Management Expenses 38,249 37,400 849 Returns on Investments Investment Income (48,164) (51,700) 3,536 Changes in market value 30,379 (222,800) 253,179 Total return on investments (17,785) (274,500) 256,715 Net (Inflow)/Outflow to the Fund 96,074 (146,100) 242,174 4

Returns on investments were less than budgeted, however future budgets have been set in order to achieve challenging future targets and the move to the Local Pensions Partnership should assist in this area as it opens additional investment routes for The Authority. More details can be found in the Funding Strategy Statement. Operational budget Operational accounts Actual Budget Variance 2015-16 2015-16 2015-16 000 000 000 Administration Pensions Administration 1,059 1,058 1 Pensions Agency (138) (290) 152 Pensions Payroll 264 221 43 Employers Services 493 332 161 Technical Services 122 173 (51) HR Service 779 760 19 IT Service 708 1,014 (306) Marketing/Communications 344 307 37 Value Added Business (107) 0 (107) Premises 918 1,004 (86) Total Administration 4,442 4,579 (137) Oversight & Governance Board 226 300 (74) Executive Committee 574 503 71 Corporate Governance 620 494 126 Finance 781 693 88 Investments Team Recharge 401 1,323 (922) Other Corporate costs 1,331 205 1,126 Strategic Project 262 250 12 Total Oversight & Governance 4,195 3,768 427 Total Operational Costs 8,637 8,347 290 Funded by: Charge made to pension fund (8,077) (7,661) (416) Recharge to residual liabilities (641) (641) 0 Movement in reserves (169) (45) (124) Total Funding (8,887) (8,347) (540) Net (surplus)/deficit (250) 0 (250) The actual expenditure excludes adjustments for IAS19 Employee Benefits charges as these do not form part of the usual management accounting process. Although included in expenses these charges are reversed out later and do not have a direct impact on the bottom line. The investments team recharge shows a significant variance due to staff 5

savings and a reduced bonus scheme. Other Corporate Costs are showing a significant overspend due to capital funding requirements and investments staffing costs being paid from the operational account, although these were recovered in additional funding. Whilst operational costs have increased from 2014/15 this was expected with the strategic decision to move into the Local Pensions Partnership, having succeeded with this strategic goal it is expected to bring cost benefits in this area in future years. Residual Liabilities LPFA is responsible for compensation payments in respect of former Greater London Council (GLC), Inner London Education Authority (ILEA) and London Residual Body (LRB) staff. These payments are not chargeable to the pension fund and are recovered by a levy on London boroughs. These budgets contain significant uncertainties in the form of injury claims for asbestosis, dating back to the GLC and ILEA. The LPFA has established a significant provision for known and expected claims, the costs of which will be met through the levy on London boroughs. Greater London The budgeted levy requirement in 2015/16 was 10,318k. Pension costs were lower than expected and there have been changes made to the asbestosis provision. However it remains extremely difficult to forecast the sums likely to be paid, both in year and over the longer term, on dealing with asbestosis claims. The LPFA has engaged an expert advisor to support the management of claims as they are submitted, and to agree estimates of future claims. Greater London Levy Actual Budget Variance 000 000 000 Pension Retirement Costs 7,168 7,483 (315) Management Expenses 273 273 0 Asbestosis Provision (known cases + direct costs) 1,823 1,642 181 Interest Payable and Receivable (29) (63) 34 Levy (10,318) (10,318) 0 Net (Inflow)/Outflow to Balances (1,083) (983) (100) Inner London The budgeted levy requirement in 2015/16 was 13,065k. As with the Greater London budget pension costs were lower than expected. The asbestosis provision spending was also significantly over budget. However, again as on the Greater London levy, the asbestosis claims remain a significant variable factor and this led to an increase in the asbestosis provision. Inner London Levy Actual Budget Variance 000 000 000 Pension Retirement Costs 11,603 11,784 (181) Management Expenses 368 368 0 Asbestosis Provision (known cases + direct costs) 584 183 401 Interest Payable and Receivable (0) (10) 10 Levy (13,065) (13,065) 0 Net (Inflow)/Outflow to Balances (510) (740) 230 6

Pension Liabilities The financial statements disclose the cost of providing retirement benefits and related gains, losses, assets and liabilities under IAS 19. The LPFA has substantial pension liabilities that it has to pay to its members. It currently pays pensioners and has an obligation to pay active and deferred members in the future. Whilst the Pension Fund statements disclose IAS 19 details a liability is recognised in both the Operational and Residual Liabilities statements. The Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) was updated in the review of public sector pensions. The new LGPS was introduced on 1 April 2014, this included a move to career average linked pension rather than final salary, members were given the option to pay contributions at half rate and member contribution rates were changed. Creditor payment policy LPFA s current policy concerning payments to suppliers of goods and services is to follow the Prompt Payers code. It is the LPFA s practice that suppliers are paid on time in accordance with their terms and conditions (based on invoice receipt date) or within 30 days of receipt. Accounting Policies LPFA prepares its accounts under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), in line with other public sector bodies, specifically under the CIPFA Code of Practice on Local Authority Accounting in the United Kingdom 2015-16. Date the Statement of Accounts were authorised for issue The Statement of Accounts were authorised for issue by the Audit and Risk Committee on 29 September 2016. Post balance sheet events have been considered up to the date the accounts were signed off by the auditor. Further Information Further information about these accounts is available from the Head of Finance, 2 nd Floor, 169 Union Street, London SE1 0LL. In addition further information on the LPFA performance in service and corporate areas can be seen alongside a summarised version of the accounts in the LPFA Year in Review document which can be requested at the address above. 7

3 Annual Governance Statement 2015/16 Introduction The London Pensions Fund Authority (LPFA) was established following the abolition of the Greater London Council (GLC) and the Inner London Education Authority (ILEA) to take on the pension responsibilities under the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS). The LPFA has sought new employers into its fund to ensure its sustainability and today it has over 356 employers paying contributions into the fund. The LPFA manages the pension fund assets, which total approximately 4.6bn, and administers the LGPS for its members, which total just under 79,000. During 2015/16, the LPFA also used the expertise gained in administering its own scheme to provide services to other local authorities, including three London boroughs, a county council and three fire authorities. With these third party contracts the LPFA provided administration services to just over 260,000 members of the LGPS or Fire Pension Scheme. LPFA has been a long term supporter of LGPS reform with the aim of driving efficiencies and benefits of scale in pension fund management. During 2015-16 this culminated in the development of a partnership with Lancashire County Pension Fund (LCPF). LPFA became a 50% owner of the Local Pensions Partnership, which is a pensions services organisation offering investment management, pension administration and risk management services. From 8th April 2016, the majority of the LPFA s functions have been delegated to the Local Pensions Partnership (LPP) under a Service Level Agreement. LPFA will be using its position as an active shareholder of the LPP to drive the effective implementation of the partnership and seek to assist, where possible, to facilitate the growth in LGPS collaborations. The responsibilities of the Board will remain; however, the implementation of the Board s policies is being carried out by the LPP. This is a new approach for the LPFA and one which requires effective monitoring and oversight of the LPP. Scope of Responsibility The LPFA is responsible for ensuring that its business is conducted in accordance with the law and proper standards, and that public money is safeguarded and properly accounted for, and used economically, efficiently and effectively. The LPFA also has a duty under the Local Government Act 1999 to make arrangements to secure continuous improvement in the way in which its functions are exercised, having regard to a combination of economy, efficiency and effectiveness. In discharging this overall responsibility, the LPFA is responsible for putting in place proper arrangements for the governance of its affairs, facilitating the effective exercise of its functions, and including arrangements for the management of risk. 9

Local Code of Corporate Governance The LPFA has approved and adopted a Local Code of Corporate Governance, which is consistent with the principles of the CIPFA/SOLACE Framework Delivering Good Governance in Local Government. A copy of the code is posted on the LPFA website (www.lpfa.org.uk). The LPFA s Local Code of Corporate Governance was reviewed and updated in June 2016. This statement sets out how the LPFA has complied with the code and also meets the requirements of the Accounts and Audit Regulations 2003, 2006, 2011 and 2015, in relation to the publication of a statement on internal control. The Purpose of the Governance Framework The governance framework comprises the systems and processes, and culture and values, by which the LPFA is directed and controlled and the activities for which it is accountable. It enables the LPFA to monitor the achievement of strategic objectives and to consider whether those objectives have led to the delivery of appropriate, costeffective services. The system of internal control is a significant part of that framework and is designed to manage risk to a reasonable level. It cannot eliminate all risk of failure to achieve policies, aims and objectives and can therefore only provide reasonable and not absolute assurance of effectiveness. The system of internal control is based on an on-going process designed to: identify and prioritise the risks to the achievement of the LPFA s policies, aims and objectives, evaluate the likelihood of those risks being realised and the impact should they be realised, and manage them efficiently, effectively and economically. The governance framework has been further enhanced during the year ended 31st March 2016 and actions taken and planned are identified below. This continued to be reviewed up to the date of approval of the Annual Report and Statement of Accounts. The Governance Framework The key elements of the systems and processes that comprise the LPFA s governance arrangements are set out in LPFA s Local Code of Corporate Governance which is available on LPFA s website www.lpfa.org.uk. The Code of Corporate Governance provides more details on: LPFA s vision, objectives and decision making process Committee structures, performance measurement and how use of resources is monitored 10

Counter fraud, risk management and conflicts of interest policies Officer specific functions, including the roles of both the s151 Officer and the Monitoring Officer Arrangements in place to ensure the effective financial monitoring and use of resources The role of the Audit & Risk Committee and whistleblowing procedures The Local Pension Board and its remit. The Local Code of Governance was updated in June 2016 to reflect the enhancements implemented during year. Actions for 2015-16 The Annual Governance Statement for the 2014-15 reporting period contained a number of action points to be completed during 2015-16. Progress against these actions is provided below. The monthly Financial Monitoring Report has continued to develop and is now presented in three separate reports solvency, cashflow and investment reports. The infrastructure partnership arrangement with Greater Manchester Pension Fund (GMPF and LPFA Infrastructure LLP) has progressed, with initial investments made and governance arrangements established. Governance arrangements have been managed appropriately for all investment subsidiaries. A solution for the pension fund deficit attributable to the former GLC/ILEA continues to be discussed with the relevant stakeholders. The Local Pensions Partnership (LPP) and Group subsidiaries were established in partnership with LCPF and discussion continued in respect of adding further partners. The Local Pension Board was established and fully operational from April 2015; this was a significant achievement and a robust challenging board is in place. Various governance improvements include updates to the Constitutional Document, a Board performance evaluation and a review of Responsible Investment activities, which resulted in the formation of a Stewardship Committee. These are discussed in more detail in the Governance Section of the Pension Fund Annual Report (available on our website). Actions planned for 2016-17 The following actions in relation to governance and monitoring are planned for 2016-17: 11

Working as an active shareholder in the Local Pensions Partnership in order to hold LPP to account and monitor its performance. Focus on transparency & engagement with stakeholders Continued discussions regarding further participants in the services provided by the LPP Group. Continuing to raise standards in line with FCA, The Pension Regulator and UK Corporate Governance Code standards. Reviewing LPFA s public policy statements and governance policies Ensuring that an active shareholder position is taken with the LPP and that the LPFA and LPP work together to effectively manage internal audit governance arrangements. We propose over the coming year to take steps to address the above matters to further enhance our governance arrangements. We are satisfied that these steps will address the need for improvements that were identified in our review of the effectiveness and will monitor their implementation and operation as part of our next annual review.

The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and the CIPFA/LASAAC Code of Practice on Local Authority Accounting in the United Kingdom 2015/16. This report is made solely to the members of the Authority, as a body, in accordance with Part 5 of the Act and as set out in paragraph 43 of the Statement of Responsibilities of Auditors and Audited Bodies published by Public Sector Audit Appointments Limited. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Authority and the Authority's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

6 Notes to the Pension Fund Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2016 General information The Fund is governed by the Superannuation Act 1972 and is administered in accordance with the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) (Benefits, Membership and Contributions) Regulations 2007 (as amended), the LGPS (Administration) Regulations 2008 (as amended), the LGPS (Management and Investment of Funds) Regulations 2009, the LGPS Regulations 2013 and the LGPS (Transitional Provisions, Savings and Amendments) Regulations 2014. Pensions administration (administration expenses in the revenue account) is carried out in-house, while custodial arrangements and fund investment is mainly outsourced to external investment managers (investment management expenses in the pension fund account) under the guidance of LPFA s Investment Committee. An increase of 1.2 % (2.7% April 2014) was applied to pensions in April 2015. This was in accordance with The Pensions Increase (Review) Order 2015. The LPFA is registered with the Register of Occupational and Personal Pension Schemes - Reference 100016237. The LPFA makes payments of annual statutory compensation following the abolition of the former Greater London Council ( GLC ) and Inner London Education Authority ( ILEA ). These payments are financed by way of a levy on all London boroughs in respect of former Greater London liabilities and on Inner London boroughs in respect of Inner London liabilities. These transactions are reported in the financial statements of the Residual Liabilities Fund. The Pension Fund is subject to triennial valuations by an independent actuary. Employers contributions are determined by the actuary to ensure that in the long term the Pension Fund s assets match its liabilities. The LPFA s Actuary is Barnett Waddingham, who have supplied an actuarial statement. This is shown on page 50 and should be read in conjunction with these accounts. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies General Principles The Statement of Accounts summarises LPFA s transactions for the 2015/16 financial year and its position as at 31 March 2016. It has been prepared in accordance with the Code of Practice on Local Authority Accounting in the United Kingdom based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). 21

The accounts summarise the transactions of the Fund and report on the net assets at the disposal of LPFA. They do not take account of obligations to pay pensions and benefits which fall due after the end of the fund year. The actuarial position of the Fund, which does take account of such obligations is dealt with in note 26 and actuarial statement. The actuarial present value of promised retirement benefits, valued on a basis consistent with IAS19, is disclosed in note 26 of these accounts. The financial statements and accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis. LPFA is not required to be compliant with SERCOP (Service Reporting Code of Practice) under the Local Government Act 2003. LPFA is not governed by the Act. Contributions Normal contributions, both from the members and from the employers, are accounted for on an accruals basis at the percentage rate recommended by the Actuary in the payroll period to which they relate. Employers augmentation contributions and capital cost contributions from the employer are accounted for in accordance with the regulations under which they are paid, or in the absence of such an agreement, when received. Employers deficit funding contributions are accounted for in accordance with the agreement under which they are being paid, or in the absence of an agreement on a receipt basis. The LPFA has had discussions with the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG) on the long-term funding of the deficit of the Pension Fund. The LPFA continues to collect deficit pension contributions from appropriate London boroughs supported by statements from the fund actuary. Transfers to and from Other Schemes Individual transfers in/out are accounted for when the receiving scheme agrees to accept the liability. The liability normally transfers when a payment is made, unless the receiving scheme has agreed to accept liability in advance of the receipt of funds. Transfers in from members wishing to use the proceeds of their additional voluntary contributions to purchase scheme benefits are accounted for on a receipts basis and included in Transfers in. Bulk transfers in/out, where the receiving scheme has agreed to accept the liability prior to receipt and the necessary employee consents have been obtained, are accounted for in accordance with the bulk transfer terms signed by qualified actuaries appointed by the two pension schemes involved in the bulk transfer. Investment Income All investment income receipts and payments are accounted for on an accruals basis. Income from pooled investment vehicles accumulation units is not paid but is reinvested automatically. Investment market value changes comprise all realised and unrealised profits/losses during the year. 22

Dividends and interest on quoted investments are accounted for when received or quoted ex dividend. Taxation The Pension Fund is a registered public service scheme under Chapter 2 of Part 4 of the Finance Act 2004 and as such is exempt from UK income tax on interest received and from capital gains tax on the proceeds of investments sold. Income from overseas investments suffers a withholding tax in the country of origin, unless exemption is permitted. Tax deducted in some European countries is recovered. Traditionally, LPFA have used a partial VAT recovery method with regard to investment management charges. During 2015/16 financial year, HRMC agreed to permit full recovery of VAT on these charges. Benefits Where members can choose whether to take their benefits as a full pension or as a lump sum with reduced pension, retirement benefits are accounted for on an accruals basis on the later of the date of retirement and the date the option is exercised. Other benefits are accounted for on an accruals basis on the date of retirement, death or leaving the Fund as appropriate. Investment Management Expenses Investment management expenses are accounted for on an accruals basis. Fees of the external investment managers and custodian are agreed in the respective mandates governing their appointments. Broadly these are based on the market value of the investments under management and there is also a fee payable based on a percentage of out-performance against an agreed benchmark, for most managers. Fees are either explicit, being expensed separately to the LPFA, or implicit, being expensed within the fund under management. Where they are implicit an adjustment has been made to the change in market value in order to separately identify the fees charged. The costs of LPFA s in-house investment team are re-charged as investment expenses to the Fund. Investment Transaction Costs Investment transaction costs are included in the cost of investments purchased or deducted from the proceeds of investments sold. Investment Assets Investment assets are included in the net asset statement on a fair value basis as at the reporting date. The asset is recognised in the net assets statement on the date the fund becomes party to the contractual acquisition of the asset. From this date any gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value are recognised by the Fund. Market-quoted investments are valued on the basis of the bid price (or, if unavailable, most recent transaction) on the relevant stock market. Fixed interest securities are recorded at net market value based on their current yields. 23

Unquoted securities are valued by the fund managers at the yearend in accordance with generally accepted guidelines. Unquoted private equities are valued by the investment managers using guidelines of the British Venture Capital Association. This includes the use of discounted cash flow models which are independently audited. Pooled investment vehicles are valued at the closing price under single pricing system, or bid price under dual pricing system, as advised by the respective fund manager. Foreign Currencies Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are expressed in sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the year end. Foreign currency transactions are translated to sterling at the spot exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Gains and losses arising on conversion or translation are dealt with as part of the change in market value. Derivatives Derivative contract assets are fair valued at bid prices and liabilities are fair valued at offer prices. Derivative contracts changes in fair value are included in change in market value. Futures contracts value is determined using exchange prices at the reporting date. Exchange traded options value is determined using the exchange price for closing out the option at the reporting date. Over the counter (OTC) contract options value is determined by the investment manager using generally accepted pricing models. The future value of forward currency contracts is based on market forward exchange rates at the year-end date and determined as the gain or loss that would arise if the outstanding contract were matched at the year end with an equal and opposite contract. Fund managers invest on behalf of the LPFA in accordance with the Investment Management Agreement and the Statement of Investment Principles, subject to the Local Government Pension Scheme ( LGPS ) guidelines (England and Wales). Additional Voluntary Contributions (AVCs) AVCs are not included in the accounts in accordance with 4(2)(b) of The Local Government Pension Scheme (Management and Investment of Funds) Regulations 2009 (SI 2009/3093) but are disclosed as a note only (Note 18). Contributions to AVCs are paid to the AVC providers by employers or contributors and are specifically for the provision of additional benefits for individual contributors. Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgment Unquoted Private Equity, Hedge Funds, Property Funds and Infrastructure Investments It is important to recognise the highly subjective nature of determining the fair value of private equity and infrastructure investments. They are inherently based on forwardlooking estimates and judgements involving factors which include the valuations of companies deemed comparable to the asset being valued, the future cash flow expectations and discount factors used. Unquoted private equities and infrastructure investments are valued by the investment managers using guidelines set out by the 24

British Venture Capital Association or Institutional Limited Partners Association. The value of unquoted private equities and infrastructure at 31 March 2016 was 819m ( 639m at 31 March 2015). There is a risk that these investments may be under or overstated in the accounts, although it is considered unlikely to have a material impact on the value of the Fund. Pension Fund Liability The pension fund liability is calculated every three years by the appointed Actuary, with annual updates in the intervening years. The methodology used is in line with accepted guidelines and in accordance with IAS19 and IAS26. Assumptions underpinning the valuations are agreed with the Actuary and are summarised in the Actuarial Statement on page 50 of this report. This estimate is subject to significant variances based on changes to the underlying assumptions. Pension Fund Information The last full triennial valuation of the LPFA Fund was carried as at 31 March 2013 in accordance with the Funding Strategy Statement of the fund. The funding level was 91%. New contribution rates for employers using a risk based approach came into effect from 1 April 2014. Details of the participating employer bodies and their individual contribution rates for the year ended 31 March 2016 are set out on pages 51-58. Employees pay contributions determined by their full time equivalent pay at the rates set out below: Year to 31 March 2015 Year to 31 March 2016 Pay Range Pay Range Contribution Rate 0-13,500 0-13,600 5.50% 13,501-21,000 13,601-21,200 5.80% 21,001-34,000 21,201-34,400 6.50% 34,001-43,000 34,401-43,500 6.80% 43,001-60,000 43,501-60,700 8.50% 60,001-85,000 60,701-86,000 9.90% 85,001-100,000 86,001-101,200 10.50% 100,001-150,000 101,201-151,800 11.40% 150,001 and above 151,801 and above 12.50% The fund membership was as follows: 2014/15 Fund Membership 2015/16 17,308 Active members 17,264 26,748 Deferred beneficiaries 27,874 33,579 Pensioner / Dependents 33,838 77,635 78,976 25

13c. Investments (continued) Analysis of Derivatives Derivatives are used to hedge liabilities or hedge exposures to reduce risk to the fund.

The LPFA has financial liabilities carried at amortised cost and the carrying amount for instruments that will mature within the next twelve months from the net asset statement date is assumed to equate to the fair value. The fair values of loans and receivables at 31 March 2016 have been reviewed and were assessed as being the same as the carrying amounts in the net asset statement. Assets are carried at fair value. When an asset or liability is translated at balance sheet date the gain / loss is taken as unrealised but when the asset or liability is settled (i.e. received / paid) the gain / loss becomes realised. LPFA has not entered into any financial guarantees that are required to be accounted for as financial instruments. Valuation of financial instruments carried at fair value The valuation of financial instruments has been classified into three levels, according to the quality and reliability of information used to determine fair values. Level 1 Financial instruments at level 1 are those where the fair values are derived from unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Products classified as level 1 comprise quoted equities, quoted fixed securities, quoted index linked securities, futures and options. Level 2 Financial instruments at level 2 are those where quoted market prices are not available; for example where an instrument is traded in a market that is not considered to be active, or where valuation techniques are used to determine fair value and where these techniques use inputs that are based significantly on observable data. Level 3 Financial instruments at level 3 are those where at least one input that could have a significant effect on the instrument s valuation is not based on observable market data. Such instruments would include unquoted equity investments which are valued using various valuation techniques that require significant judgement in determining appropriate assumptions. The values of the investment in private equity and infrastructure are based on valuations provided by the general partners of the funds in which the LPFA has invested. The valuations are determined using the guidelines set out by the British Venture Capital Association or International Limited Partners Association. 40

The principal aim of investment risk management is to maximise the returns of investments within reasonable risk parameters. The LPFA s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the resources available to fund its services. Overall responsibility rests with the Board, although a separate investment committee has been established along with a risk committee. Investment risk management is included within the investment strategy. The in-house investment team reports to the Investment Committee on a quarterly basis. The procedures for risk management in relation to key financial instruments is set out through the legal framework detailed within the Local Government Act 2003 and associated regulations. These require LPFA to comply with the CIPFA Prudential Code, the CIPFA Treasury Management in the Public Services of Practice and Investment Guidance. Overall, LPFA manages risk in the following ways:- by formally adopting the requirements of the Code of Practice; by approving annually in advance prudential indicators which limit the LPFA s overall borrowing; by following treasury management guidelines; and 41

by approving an investment strategy. In order to comply with the requirement that the LPFA set a balanced budget (Local Government Finance Act 1992) a draft budget is approved by the Corporate Management Team for submission to the Board. The draft budget once approved by Board is submitted to the Mayor of London for comment. The final budget is set by the Board bearing in mind any comments made by the Mayor. The LPFA has significant pension fund assets and these are managed in line with LPFA s investment strategy and set out in the Statement of Investment Principles. This includes the use of derivatives, further details of which are in note 13. Further information on the management and performance of these assets is included in the Pension Fund Annual Report, which is available on the LPFA s website. The LPFA also holds some pension fund assets in cash which are held in accordance with a Treasury Management Strategy Statement and underlying Treasury Management Practices, agreed by the Board and scrutinised by the Investment Committee, Audit and Risk Committee. Further details on this are provided under Credit Risk. For the year ending 31st March 2016, LPFA has undertaken no repurchase or early settlement of borrowing, incurred no premiums and discounts, entered into no financial guarantees, not defaulted on any loans and not held or pledged any collateral (apart from collateral held as part of the securities lending programme) in respect of the repayment of any loans. The LPFA s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks in respect of financial instruments: Market Risk Market risk is the risk of loss from fluctuations in asset prices, interest and foreign exchange rates and credit spreads. The fund is exposed to market risk from its investment activities. The level of risk exposure depends on market conditions, expectations of future price and yield movements and the asset mix. The objective of the fund s risk management strategy is to identify, manage and control market risk exposure within acceptable parameters, whilst optimising return on risk. The fund mitigates these risks by establishing a well-diversified strategic asset allocation, including assets which provide real term returns as well as cash flow generating assets that try to match the fund s liabilities. The exposure of the fund to market risk is monitored quarterly and reported to the Investment Committee and Risk Committee. Other Price Risk Other price risk represents the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes in market prices driven by factors other than those arising from interest rate risk or foreign exchange risk (e.g. supply, demand and investor confidence). Often these changes are caused by factors specific to the individual instrument or its issuer or factors affecting all such instruments in the market. The fund is also exposed to share and derivative price risk. This arises from investments held by the fund for which the future price is uncertain. All securities investments present a potential risk of loss of capital. Except for shares sold short, the maximum risk resulting from financial instruments is determined by the fair value of the financial instruments. However, the potential losses from shares sold short, is unlimited. 42

The fund s investment managers mitigate this price risk of asset classes through diversification and the selection of securities. Other Price Risk Sensitivity Analysis Following analysis of historical data and expected investment return movement during the financial year, the LPFA has determined that the following movements in market price risk are reasonably possible for the 2015/16 reporting period: 2015 1 year expected volatility (%) 2015 % of fund Asset Class 2016 1 year expected volatility (%) 2016 % of fund 16.0 49.8 Global Equities 16.0 51.5 22.0 9.4 Private Equity 22.0 12.7 11.0 3.2 Property 11.0 3.5 7.5 14.3 Fixed Income 7.5 5.2 12.5 0.8 Commodity 12.5 0.6 14.5 4.6 Infrastructure 14.5 7.5 1.0 17.8 Cash & LDI 1.0 19.0 10.6 100 Total Fund volatility 11.3 100 The potential price changes disclosed above are broadly consistent with one standard deviation movement in the returns for each of the major asset classes in which the Fund is invested. The total fund volatility takes into account the expected interactions between the different asset classes shown, based on underlying volatilities and correlations of the assets. The methodology has been revised from the previous accounting period; we use long term assumptions for the volatility of each asset class, along with a cautious set of long run correlation assumptions, which result in a higher volatility projection than estimated previously over the equivalent accounting period. The value of the Fund as at 31 March 2016 was 4,550m (2015: 4,645m) and the expected volatility was 11.3% (2015: 10.6%). Given these figures, we would expect that in roughly 2/3 rds of outcomes the value of the Fund would lie between 4,610m (2015: 5,112m) and 3,674m (2015: 4,140m) in 12 months time, expressed in today s equivalent present value. Interest Rate Risk The fund invests in financial assets for the primary purpose of obtaining a return on investments. These investments are subject to interest rate risks, which represent the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis The table below shows the sensitivity in the values of the main bond mandates held by the Insight and BlackRock pooled investment vehicles. The analysis assumes a +/- 100bps parallel shift across all relevant yield curves, based on the assumption of fixed duration with underlying sensitivities provided by the two investment managers. 43

A global asset allocation with sterling liabilities exposes the Fund to fluctuations in exchange rates that may affect the value of its investments. The Board has established a currency hedge covering 50% of the global equity portfolio to dampen the effect of foreign currency fluctuations against sterling. This position is reviewed regularly as part of the investment strategy review. Currency Risk Sensitivity Analysis The projected standard deviation of the Fund s currency exposure is based on 12m market implied volatilities and correlations, as of the relevant accounting date. While the largest foreign currency exposure is USD, with an implied volatility of 12.6%, the higher volatilities of other currencies offset by the expected correlation mean that the overall currency exposure, after any currency hedging, is expected to contribute 1.19% (2015: 1.13%) of volatility to the overall assets ( 4.55bn) of the portfolio. This assumes no diversification with other assets. The following tables summarise the fund s currency exposure by currency as at 31 March 2016 and as at the previous period end: Value at 31 March 2015 ( m) Implied volatility % Currency Value at 31 March 2016 ( m) Implied volatility % 390 10.5 USD 625 12.6-44 11.7 JPY -34 15.0 194 10.1 EUR 116 12.0-17 10.7 CAD -14 12.3 72 10.4 CHF 103 13.0-17 11.1 AUD -10 13.2 12 11.6 SEK 24 12.1 44

31 March 2015 31 March 2016 0.01% FX Variance (% of net assets) 0.04% 1.13% Volatility (% of net assets) 2.10% 4,645m Net Assets of the fund 4,550m 4,697m Net assets plus 1 standard deviation 4,645m 4,593m Net assets less 1 standard deviation 4,454m Credit Risk Credit risk represents the risk that the counterparty to a transaction or a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the fund to incur a financial loss. The market values of investments generally reflect an assessment of credit in their pricing and consequently the risk of loss is implicitly provided for in the carrying value of the fund s financial assets and liabilities. In essence the fund s entire investment portfolio is exposed to some form of credit risk, with the exception of the derivatives positions, where the risk equates to the net market value of a positive derivative position. However the selection of high quality counterparties, brokers and financial institutions minimizes credit risk that may occur through the failure to settle a transaction in a timely manner. Contractual credit risk is represented by the net payment or receipt that remains outstanding, and the cost of replacing the derivative position in the event of a counterparty default. The residual risk is minimal due to the various insurance policies held by the exchanges to cover defaulting counterparties. Credit risk on OTC derivative contracts is minimized as counterparties are recognized financial intermediaries with acceptable credit ratings determined by a recognised rating agency. During the 2013/14 the LPFA joined a Group Investment Syndicate (GIS), operated by the Greater London Authority (GLA), under the supervision of the participants; the GLA, the London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority (LFEPA), the London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC) and the Mayor s office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC). The GIS has an approved counterparty list using a sophisticated creditworthiness methodology. The methodology uses an average of the ranked ratings from the ratings agencies; Fitch, Moody s and Standard & Poor. The LPFA places the majority of its short term cash deposit with the GIS, but in addition can place cash directly with any counterparty on the approved list of the GIS. The LPFA believes it has managed its exposure to credit risk, and has had no experience of default and uncollectable deposits over the past five financial years. The fund s cash holding under its treasury management arrangements at 31 March 2016 was 338m (2015: 716m). Liquidity Risk The LPFA ensures it has adequate cash resources to meet its commitments. This will particularly be the case for cash from the cash flow matching mandates from the main investment strategy to meet the pensioner payroll costs; and also cash to meet investment commitments, particular for the diversifying assets portfolio. 45

The LPFA defines liquid assets as assets that can be converted to cash within three months. Illiquid assets are those assets which will take longer than three months to convert in to cash. As at 31 March 2016 the value of illiquid assets was 788.9m which represented 19.1% of the total LPFA assets (31 March 2015 863.4m which represented 15.7% of the total LPFA assets). The LPFA has immediate access to its cash holdings with the GIS and Lloyds Bank Plc. All financial liabilities at 31 March 2016 are due within one year. Refinancing Risk The key risk is that the LPFA will be bound to replenish a significant proportion of its financial instruments at a time of unfavourable interest rates. The LPFA does not have any financial instruments that have a refinancing risk, as part of its treasury management. 16.

These are reviewed on a case by case basis. No allowance is made in respect of other debts which relate to sums due to LPFA from employers. 20. Current Liabilities 31 March 2015 31 March 2016 000 000 (23,209) Sundry creditors (14,573) (30) Group transfer (1,797) (1,572) Benefits payable (2,164) (24,811) (18,534) The significant majority of creditors are with other entities and individuals, investment management and performance fees being the vast majority of this. 21. Related party Transactions This disclosure note has been produced using a specific declaration obtained in respect of related party transactions. The LPFA has prepared this note in accordance with its interpretation and understanding of IAS24 and its applicability to the public sector using current advice and guidance. Mike O Donnell (Board member) is the Executive Director of Corporate Services at London Borough of Camden. The London Borough of Camden paid employer contributions of 458k (2015: 469K) during the year. Stephen Alambritis (Board member) is the Leader of London Borough of Merton. No contributions were paid by the London Borough of Merton during the year (2015:nil). These two boroughs are Scheduled bodies in the Fund. The Mayor of London comments on the LPFA annual budget and the Greater London Authority is a participating employer of the pension scheme and paid employer contributions of 4,689k during the year (2015: 4,794k). The LPFA Operational Account and Residual Liabilities account are deemed to be related parties and transactions relating to such are reflected elsewhere in these accounts. 47

22. Contingent Liabilities and Contractual Commitments Outstanding capital commitments (investments) at 31 March 2016 totalled 673.66m [2015: 246.2m] based on: Currency Commitment (m) Exchange Rate m US$ 287.5 1.4379 199.94 CHF 7.4 1.3811 5.36 EUR 142.1 1.2681 112.06 GBP 356.3 N/A 356.30 Total 673.66 These commitments relate to outstanding call payments due on unquoted Limited Partnership funds held in the Private Equity and Infrastructure parts of the portfolio. The amounts called by these funds are both irregular in size and timing over a period of between 4 and 6 years from the date of each original commitment. 23. Statement of Investment Principles A copy of the statement can be obtained by contacting LPFA at 169 Union Street or via the corporate website: www.lpfa.org.uk. 24. Post Balance Sheet Events There have been two non-adjusting post balance sheet events, which are detailed below; Formation of the Local Pensions Partnership Group On 8 th April 2016 the London Pensions Fund Authority and the pension fund of Lancashire County Council went live with an asset and liability management partnership, forming the Local Pensions Partnership Group ( The Partnership ). The Partnership, which is a response to the Government's reform agenda for Local Government Pension Schemes, has the potential to fundamentally change the way in which the two funds are managed and achieve significant reductions in the cost of running the Funds. The Partnership comprises, a pool of investment assets (made up of the assets of the two funds, which are jointly managed and invested) and a pension services organisation. The Partnership carries out both investment management and pensions administration functions. Both the asset pool and the investment management activities are regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. EU Referendum On 23rd June 2016, following the EU Referendum, the UK decided to exit the European Union. Both pre and post referendum, the directors of LPFA fully considered the implications of the outcome. In the short term, the impact has been favourable, however the directors continue to monitor the longer term effect and act accordingly. 25. Participating Employers 48

A list of the employer bodies of the Pension Fund is set out on pages 51-58. 26. Actuarial Present Value of Promised Retirement Benefits In addition to the triennial valuation, the fund s actuary also undertakes a valuation of the pension fund liabilities in accordance with IAS 26, every year using the results of the Triennial Actuarial Valuation as at 31 March 2013, estimated income and expenditure for the year, fund returns for the year and details of any new retirements for the year that have been paid out on an unreduced basis, which are not anticipated in the normal employer service cost. The present value of the Funded Obligation at 31 March 2016 for the Fund was 6,870m (2015: 7,154m). The net liability for the Fund at 31 March 2016 was 2,325m (2015: 2,528m). Key Assumptions Used Life expectancy from age 65 (years) 31 March 2016 31 March 2015 Retiring today : Males 22.0 21.9 Females 25.0 24.9 Retiring in 20 years: Males 24.4 24.2 Females 27.3 27.2 Members will exchange half of their commutable pension for cash at retirement. Members will retire at one retirement age for all tranches of benefit, which will be the pension weighted average tranche retirement age No members will take up the option under the new LGPS to pay 50% of contributions for 50% of benefits. The financial assumptions used for the purposes of the calculations are as follows. 31 March 2016 %p.a. 31 March 2015 %p.a. RPI increases 3.2 3.2 CPI increases 2.3 2.4 Salary increases 4.1 4.1 Pension increases 2.3 2.4 Discount rate 3.6 3.3 49

These assumptions are set with reference to market conditions at 31 March 2016. 7 ACTUARIAL STATEMENT Introduction The last full triennial valuation of the London Pensions Fund Authority Pension Fund was carried out as at 31 March 2013 in accordance with the Funding Strategy Statement of the Fund. The results were published in the triennial valuation report dated March 2014. The next formal valuation will be carried out as at 31 March 2016, with new contribution rates set from 1 April 2017. This statement gives an update on the likely progression of the funding position to 31 March 2016 and comments on the main factors that have led to a change since the full valuation as at 31 March 2013. 2013 Valuation Results The results for the Fund at 31 March 2013 were as follows The Fund as a whole had a funding level of 91% i.e. the assets were 91% of the value that they would ve needed to be to pay for the benefits accrued to that date, based on the assumptions used. This corresponded to a deficit of 483m which is lower than the deficit at the previous valuation in 2010. The contribution rate for each employer was set based on the annual cost of new benefits plus any adjustment (usually expressed as a lump sum payment) required to pay for their individual deficit. The assumptions used for each employer in setting these contributions varied based on the period that they were expected to continue in the Fund and the assessed strength of their covenant. The contributions for strong employers that were expected to stay in the Fund over the long term were set using the same assumptions as the overall Fund results with an individual deficit recovery period of up to 17 years. In contrast, weaker employers that were expected to leave the Fund shortly were set contributions which target fully funded on a minimum risk basis when they leave the Fund. Updated position Using an approach consistent with the 2013 valuation, the funding position at 31 March 2016 is projected to have slightly improved. The main reason for the improvement is the payment of deficit contributions by employers. The method and assumptions to be used for the 2016 valuation will be discussed during 2016/17 and the results shall be published by 31 March 2017.

10 Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2016 General Information The operational costs incurred by LPFA in administering the pension fund, residual liabilities fund and agency contracts are accumulated in the operational accounts and are reimbursed from the respective source. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies General Principles The Statement of Accounts summarises LPFA s transactions for the 2015/16 financial year and its position at year-end of 31 March 2016. It has been prepared in accordance with the Code of Practice on Local Authority Accounting in the United Kingdom 2015/16: based upon International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The accounting convention adopted is historical cost. LPFA is not required to be compliant with Service Reporting Code of Practice (SERCOP) under the Local Government Act 2003. LPFA is not governed by the act. The financial statements and accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis. Accruals of Income and Expenditure Activity is accounted for in the year that it takes place, not simply when cash payments are made or received. In particular: Fees and charges are accounted for as income at the date LPFA provides the relevant services. Supplies are recorded as expenditure when they are consumed. Where income or expenditure has been recognised but cash has not been received or paid, a receivable or payable for the relevant amount is recorded in the balance sheet. Where it is doubtful that debts will be settled, the balance of receivables is written down and a charge is made to revenue for the income that might not be collected. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand and demand deposits, together with short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash, and that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. An investment normally meets the definition of a cash equivalent when it has a maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition. Bank overdrafts which are repayable on 65

demand and which form an integral part of an entity s cash management are also included as a component of cash and cash equivalents. Cash balances not required for immediate use are invested in accordance with LPFA s Treasury Management Strategy. Interest earned on LPFA s balances is credited to the Comprehensive Income and Expenditure Statement during the year and appropriate accruals are made at year-end. Employee Benefits Benefits payable during employment Employee benefits are those due to be settled in the financial year. They include salaries, bonuses, paid annual leave and paid sick leave for employees and are recognised as an expense in the year in which the employee renders services to LPFA. An accrual is made for leave and flexi-time carry-forward at the end of the financial year. This is reversed out through the movement in reserves statement. Post employment benefits LPFA participates in the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) administered by the LPFA. This is a funded, defined benefit scheme. Employees and employers contributions are paid in to the LGPS. Employers contribution rates are advised by the LPFA Fund s Actuary, Barnett Waddingham. The pension liabilities of the LPFA are included on the Balance Sheet on an actuarial basis i.e. an assessment of the future payments (retirement benefits) based on assumptions made by the Actuary about mortality rates, employee turnover rates etc and projections of earnings for current employees. The financial statements disclose the cost of providing retirement benefits and related gains, losses, assets and liabilities under IAS 19. In line with directions from Government, future pensions liabilities are now measured using the Consumer Prices Index. The Code of Practice requires the net pensions asset or liability be matched by a pensions reserve in the Balance sheet. The movement in the defined benefit obligation is analysed into the following components: Service cost: the increase in the present value of a defined benefit obligation (liabilities) resulting from employee service in the current period. Interest cost: the change during the period in the defined benefit liability that arises from the passage of time. Change in financial assumptions: changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from a change in financial assumptions made by the actuary; Change in demographic assumptions: changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from a change in demographic assumptions made by the Actuary; Experience loss/(gain) on defined benefit obligation: changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from the effects of the differences between the previous actuarial assumptions and what has actually occurred; 66

Estimated benefits paid (net of transfers in): Payments to discharge liabilities directly to pensioners; Contributions by scheme participants: the increase in scheme liabilities and assets due to payments made into the scheme by employees (where increased contribution increases pensions due to the employee in the future). Although LPFA incorporates notional charges determined by the Actuary in to its accounts, these are then reversed out again to allow the actual amounts payable by LPFA to be charged to its Comprehensive Income and Expenditure Statement. Post Balance Sheet Events These are events that occur between the end of the reporting period and the date the Statement of Accounts are published. Events taking place after the date of publication are not reflected in the Statement of Accounts. There are two types of event possible: Adjusting - Those events that are evidence of conditions that existed at the Balance Sheet date, if these are material the statements and notes are adjusted to reflect their impact. Non-adjusting - Those events that are indicative of conditions that arose after the Balance Sheet date, the financial statements and notes are not adjusted for the impact of such events but additional explanatory notes would be provided. Provisions Provisions are made where an event has taken place that gives LPFA an obligation that probably requires settlement by transfer of economic benefits, but where the timing of the transfer is uncertain. Provisions are charged to the comprehensive income and expenditure statement in the year that LPFA becomes aware of the obligation, based on the best estimate of the likely settlement. When payments are eventually made they are charged directly to the provision set up on the balance sheet. Estimated settlements are reviewed at the end of each financial year and the provision increased or reversed back to the revenue account if it becomes more likely than not that a transfer of benefits will not be made or a lower settlement than anticipated could be made. Contingent Liabilities Contingent liabilities arise where an event has taken place that gives LPFA a possible obligation whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or otherwise of uncertain future events not wholly within the control of LPFA. These are not recognised as liabilities in the accounts but disclosed in the financial statements where it is probable that an outflow of economic benefit to settle the obligation is more than remote. Leases LPFA rented office accommodation under an operating lease agreement at Dexter House 2 Royal Mint Court until December 2014 and from November 2014 has done so under a licence agreement at 169 Union Street. In both instances the costs are charged to the revenue account on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. 67

Property, Plant and Equipment Recognition Property, plant and equipment are assets that have physical substance and are held for use in the provision of services or for administrative purposes on a continuing basis. Expenditure is capitalised on an accruals basis, provided that it yields benefits to LPFA and its services for more than one financial year. Measurement Assets, including those under construction, are initially measured at cost, comprising all expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset in to working condition for its intended use. Assets are then carried in the balance sheet at depreciated replacement cost. Impairment Asset values are reviewed at the end of each financial year for evidence of reductions in value. Depreciation Property, plant and equipment have been included in the balance sheet at their cost, net of depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the economic life of the investment to reflect the pattern of the consumption of economic benefits. All furniture, fittings and office refurbishments were depreciated fully over the lease term for Dexter House which expired on 31/12/2014. Whilst assets are under construction they are not depreciated but a valuation will be made at the time the asset is brought into use; Classification: Useful life of Property, plant and equipment Computers 3 years Servers 5 years Intangible Assets Expenditure on assets that do not have physical substance but are identifiable and controlled by LPFA (e.g. software licences) is capitalised when it will bring benefits to LPFA for more than one financial year. The balance is amortised to the Comprehensive Income and Expenditure Statement through a straight-line depreciation charge over the economic life of the investment to reflect the pattern of the consumption of economic benefits: 68

Classification: Software licenses Altair related (Pensions admin system) Useful life of asset: 5 years 10 years During the 2014/15 financial year LPFA purchased and developed software and licences for a significantly upgraded finance system. The system was not brought into use until May 2015. Inventory LPFA holds no major stocks or work in progress. With the exception of a few publications which are pre-printed for later distribution, the cost of all materials is charged to the Comprehensive Income and Expenditure Statement when they are purchased. Value Added Tax LPFA is VAT registered, so all income and expenditure amounts exclude VAT, with the exception of where VAT is not fully recoverable. Overheads LPFA is not required to be compliant with SERCOP (Service Reporting Code of Practice) under the Local Government Act 2003. LPFA is not governed by the act. Financial Assets / Liabilities Financial Assets/Liabilities represents transactions, with a contract, that result in a financial asset for one entity and a financial liability for another. Financial assets are recognised by LPFA on the Balance Sheet, initially at their fair value, only when goods or services have been provided or rendered to a third party. Financial liabilities are recognised, initially at their fair value, when the goods or services ordered from a third party have been received by LPFA and the third party has performed its contractual obligations. Reserves LPFA sets aside specific amounts as reserves for future policy purposes or to cover contingencies. Reserves are created by appropriating amounts in the General Fund Balance in the Movement on Reserves Statement. Where expenditure to be financed from a reserve is incurred, it is charged to the Comprehensive Income and Expenditure Statement and the reserve is then applied to offset this charge. General Reserve The General Reserve is used to fund unexpected short term costs. 69

Capital Contributions Reserve This is a reserve which reflects the net funding of capital spending from the Pension Fund. Premises Reserve This reserve was established by LPFA in 2014 when the lease on Dexter House expired. The reserve was used to fund work to consider the options, and to fund the costs associated with moving premises. The reserve now remains in order to fund the possibly significant costs in re-instating Dexter House to its original state should LPFA be required to do so. Valuation Reserve The carrying out of the fund triennial valuation adds about 30,000 to the LPFA s operational costs in the valuation year. From 2014-15 the LPFA will put resources into the reserve to fund the 2016 valuation (in 2016-17). Business Reserve A business reserve will cope with planned one off and unexpected additional costs on our commercial operations. The reserve would be used to fund investment in obtaining new contracts, any costs of the loss of a contract, and any short-term additional resources to meet any problems on an existing contract. Organisational Development Reserve The reserve supports improvements in working practices, and the development and retention of staff, this would include funding temporary staff, consultancy, departure costs and similar type expenditure. Innovations Reserve The reserve is used to fund invest to save projects. Certain reserves are kept to manage accounting processes and do not represent usable resources for LPFA. These are the Pensions Reserve and the Accumulated Leave Reserve. Pension Reserve The Pension Reserve has been set up to ring-fence the accounting for the pension costs. It merely represents the actuarially calculated deficit between the value of all pension liabilities and the assets held. Accumulated Leave Reserve The accumulated leave reserve has been set up to ring fence the accounting for the untaken leave accruals. 70

Financial Risk Management There is a robust budget setting process in place that includes: strategic business direction set by the Board, budget challenge by both Officers and the Audit and Risk Committee prior to the draft budget being presented to Board for its initial comment and approval prior to dispatch to the Mayor of London for formal consultation. Subsequently a revised budget paper, including comments and other changes is presented back to Board for final approval. Once approved budgets are profiled by spending officers and then monitored on a monthly basis, the outcome of such are reported through to the Corporate Management Team and regularly to Board. The budget contains income generated from commercial contracts and assumptions have been made regarding renewal of those contracts. During the course of the year, as contracts are renewed, or not, then actual events may not accurately reflect the assumptions allowed for in the budget. Events affecting commercial contracts are reviewed as they happen and on a monthly basis as part of the budget monitoring arrangements. Critical Accounting Judgements and Estimates Useful Lives of Property, Plant and Equipment LPFA estimates the useful lives of property, plant and equipment based on the period over which the assets are expected to be available for use. The estimated useful lives are reviewed periodically and are updated if expectations differ from previous estimates due to physical wear and tear, technical or commercial obsolescence and legal or other limits on the use of the relevant assets. In addition, the estimation of the useful lives of property, plant and equipment are based on internal technical evaluation and experience with similar assets. It is possible, however, that future results of operations could be materially affected by changes in the estimates brought about by changes in factors mentioned above. The amounts and timing of recorded expenses for any period would be affected by changes in these factors and circumstances. A reduction in the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment would increase the recorded expenses and decrease the value of such within the balance sheet. Pensions Liability Estimation of the net liability to pay pensions depend on a number of complex judgements relating to the discount rate used, the rate at which salaries are projected to increase, changes in retirement ages, mortality rates and expected returns on pension fund assets. A firm of consulting actuaries are engaged to provide LPFA with expert advice about the assumptions to be applied. However, because these judgements cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could be materially different from the assumptions and estimates. 71

The actual fee charged by Grant Thornton in both years is 41k. 12. Retirement Benefit Obligations Employee Benefits The LPFA had 123 out of 138 staff who are members of the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS). The LGPS is a tax approved, defined benefit occupational pension scheme set up under the Superannuation Act 1972. The benefits under the scheme are based on the length of membership and the average salary. Each member contributes a proportion of their salary, within a 5.5% to 12.5% range depending of their rate of pay. The LPFA, as the employing body, also contributes in to the scheme on the employee s behalf at 12.0% of the employee s salary as well as a past service cost of 205k (2014/15 196k). Benefits Payable During Employment Short-term employee benefits are those due to be settled within 12 months of the year-end. They include such benefits as wages and salaries, paid annual leave and paid sick leave, bonuses and non-monetary benefits (e.g. cars) for current employees and are recognised as an expense for services in the year in which employees render service to LPFA. An accrual is made for the cost of holiday entitlements (or any form of leave, e.g. time off in lieu) earned by employees but not taken before the year-end which employees can carry forward into the next financial year. The accrual is made at the wage and salary rates applicable in the following accounting year, being the period in which the employee takes the benefit. The accrual is charged to Surplus or Deficit on the Provision of Services, but then reversed out through the Movement in Reserves Statement so that holiday benefits are charged to revenue in the financial year in which the holiday absence occurs. Termination Benefits Termination benefits are amounts payable as a result of a decision by LPFA to terminate an officer s employment before the normal retirement date or an officer s decision to accept voluntary redundancy and are charged on an accruals basis to the Cost of Services line in the Comprehensive Income and Expenditure Statement at the earlier of 79

when LPFA can no longer withdraw the offer or when the authority recognises costs for a restructuring under IAS37. Where termination benefits involve the enhancement of pensions, statutory provisions require the General Fund balance to be charged with the amount payable by LPFA to the pension fund or pensioner in the year, not the amount calculated according to the relevant accounting standards. In the Movement in Reserves Statement, appropriations are required to and from the Pensions Reserve to remove the notional debits and credits for pension enhancement termination benefits and replace them with debits for the cash paid to the pension fund and pensioners and any such amounts payable but unpaid at the year-end. Post Employment Benefits Employees of LPFA are members of the LGPS, administered by the LPFA. The scheme provides defined benefits to members (retirement lump sums and pensions), earned as employees worked for LPFA. The Local Government Pension Scheme LGPS is accounted for as a defined benefits scheme: The liabilities of the LPFA pension fund attributable to LPFA are included in the balance sheet on an actuarial basis using the projected unit method i.e. an assessment of the future payments that will be made in relation to retirement benefits earned to date by employees, based on assumptions about mortality rates, employee turnover rates, etc, and projections of projected earnings for current employees. Discretionary Benefits LPFA also has restricted powers to make discretionary awards of retirement benefits in the event of early retirements. Any liabilities estimated to arise as a result of an award to any member of staff (including teachers) are accrued in the year of the decision to make the award and accounted for using the same policies as are applied to the Local Government Pension Scheme. Amounts recognized in the balance sheet are determined as follows: 2014/15 2015/16 000 000 26,398 Estimated employer asset 25,870 (46,123) Present value of scheme liabilities (44,345) (46,123) Total Value of Liabilities (44,345) (19,725) Net Pension liability (18,475) 80

The following assumptions were also made: Members will exchange half of their commutable pension for cash at retirement. Members will retire at one retirement age for all tranches of benefit, which will be the pension weighted average tranche retirement age; and No members will take up the option under the new LGPS to pay 50% of contributions for 50% of benefits. 31-Mar-16 31-Mar-15 31-Mar-14 %p.a.

Contributions to the Pension Fund during 2015/16 Contributions from the employer amounts to 786,000. Impact on Authority s Cash flows The next triennial valuation is due as at 31 March 16 and may have an impact on the future liability cashflows, further detail on this can be found on page 50. The authority expects to pay reduced contributions in 2016/17 due to the change in structure of the LPFA, this should amount to 148k.

Related Party Transactions This disclosure note has been produced using a specific declaration obtained in respect of related party transactions. Agency contracts and pension funds are related parties. LPFA Pension Fund, Residual Liabilities and the Greater London Authority are related parties and transactions relating to such are disclosed elsewhere within these accounts. The appropriate disclosures have been made in the Pension Fund accounts. 89

18. Receivables The LPFA does not have any transactions with NHS bodies and the significant majority of debtors are with other local authorities, the primary relationship with central government bodies is with Her Majesty s Revenues and Customs for VAT. 2014/15 2015/16 000 000 2 Central Government Bodies 707 612 Other Local Authorities 721 145 Other Entities and Individuals 694 759 2,122 Receivables from Central Government Bodies is comprised of a VAT rebate owed to LPFA. The total due from other entities and individuals has increased significantly due to invoicing for agency contracts taking place post 31 st March in 2016. 19. Payables 2014/15 2015/16 000 000 90 Central Government Bodies 259 0 Other Local Authorities 239 583 Other Entities and Individuals 1,018 673 1,516 Payables to Central Government Bodies are comprised of PAYE, this has increased from 2014/15 due to an inflated March 2016 payroll. Payables due to Other Local Authorities has increased due to receipt of income that had not been allocated at year end. Payables due to other entities and individuals have increased primarily due to retention and bonus payments due to staff. 20. Post Balance Sheet Events The post balance sheet detailed in the pension fund accounts has a significant effect on the operational aspect of LPFA. The majority of staff have transferred to the organisation which will provide all support services to LPFA. The effect of this will be seen in the 2016/17 accounts where LPFA now has costs limited primarily to remaining staff and service charges from Local Pensions Partnership (LPP). It is expected that during the 2016/17 remaining LPFA staff will also transfer to LPP leaving a Board, CEO and S151 officer in place. As part of the move to the partnership the LPFA transferred its IT assets to LPP at nil value and therefore incurred a write off cost in association with this. All other assets remain in place and these are used by LPP at a charge equivalent to the depreciation charge incurred by LPFA. 90

12 Accounts Notes to the Residual Liability 1. General information The LPFA makes payments of annual statutory compensation following the abolition of the former Greater London Council (GLC) and Inner London Education Authority (ILEA). These payments are financed by way of a levy on all London Boroughs in respect of former Greater London liabilities and on Inner London Boroughs in respect of Inner London liabilities. The residual liabilities accounts include substantial provisions for injury claims from former employees of the GLC and ILEA in relation to asbestosis. The costs of these claims will be met through a levy on London boroughs, and so the accounts also include a re-imbursement to offset most of the provision, the balance being met by funds already taken from London boroughs, and held in reserves. 2. Summary of significant accounting policies General Principles The Statement of Accounts summarises LPFA s transactions for the 2015/16 financial year and its position at year-end of 31 March 2016. It has been prepared in accordance with the Code of Practice on Local Authority Accounting in the United Kingdom 2015/16: based upon International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. LPFA is not required to be compliant with SERCOP (Service Reporting Code of Practice) under the Local Government Act 2003. LPFA is not governed by the act. Accruals of Income and Expenditure Activity is accounted for in the year that it takes place, and not when cash payments are made or received. In particular: Fees and charges are accounted for as income at the date LPFA provides the relevant services. Supplies are recorded as expenditure when they are consumed. Where income or expenditure have been recognised but cash has not been received or paid, a debtor or creditor for the relevant amount is recorded in the balance sheet. Where it is doubtful that debts will be settled, the balance of debtors is written down and a charge is made to revenue for the income that might not be collected. 97

Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand and demand deposits, together with short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash, and that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. An investment normally meets the definition of a cash equivalent when it has a maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition. Bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and which form an integral part of an entity s cash management are also included as a component of cash and cash equivalents. Cash balances not required for immediate use are invested in accordance with LPFA s Treasury Management Strategy. Interest earned on LPFA s balances is credited to the Comprehensive Income and Expenditure Statement during the year and appropriate accruals are made at year-end. Post Balance Sheet Events These are events that occur between the end of the reporting period and the date the Statement of Accounts are published. Events taking place after the date of publication are not reflected in the Statement of Accounts. There are two types of event possible: Adjusting - Those events that are evidence of conditions that existed at the Balance Sheet date, if these are material the statements and notes are adjusted to reflect their impact. Non-adjusting - Those events that are indicative of conditions that arose after the Balance Sheet date, the financial statements and notes are not adjusted for the impact of such events but additional explanatory notes would be provided. Provisions Provisions are made where an event has taken place that gives LPFA an obligation that in probability, may require settlement by transfer of economic benefits, but where the timing of the transfer is uncertain. Provisions are charged to the comprehensive income and expenditure statement in the year that LPFA becomes aware of the obligation, based on the best estimate of the likely settlement. When payments are eventually made they are charged directly to the provision set up on the balance sheet. Estimated settlements are reviewed at the end of each financial year and the provision increased or reversed back to the revenue account if it becomes more likely than not that a transfer of benefits will not be made or a lower settlement than anticipated could be made. Contingent liabilities Contingent liabilities arise where an event has taken place that gives LPFA a possible obligation whose existence will only be confirmed by the occurrence or otherwise of uncertain future events not wholly within the control of LPFA. These are not recognised as liabilities in the accounts but disclosed in the financial statements where it is probable that an outflow of economic benefit to settle the obligation is more than remote. Overheads LPFA is not required to be compliant with SERCOP (Service Reporting Code of Practice) under the Local Government Act 2003. However, directly attributable 98

overheads are charged to the appropriate service areas within the Residual Liabilities Account. Interest on Balances Cash balances not required for immediate use are invested in accordance with LPFA Treasury Management Strategy. Interest earned on LPFA s balances is credited to the Income and Expenditure Account during the year and appropriate accruals are made at year-end. Financial Assets / Liabilities Financial Assets/Liabilities represents transactions, with a contract, that result in a financial asset for one entity and a financial liability for another. Financial assets are recognised by LPFA on the Balance Sheet, initially at their fair value, only when goods or services have been provided or rendered to a third party. Financial liabilities are recognised, initially at their fair value, when the goods or services ordered from a third party have been received by LPFA and the third party has performed its contractual obligations. Responsibility rested with LPFA for the administration of two outstanding undated loan stocks which were originally issued by the former London County Council. These loan stocks were included at their nominal value in the Residual Liabilities Balance Sheet. The loan stocks were substantially repurchased in 2005/06. LPFA held a war loan to offset the interest payments attributable to the loan stocks but this was redeemed in 2014/15. Reserves LPFA sets aside specific amounts as reserves for future policy purposes or to cover contingencies. Reserves are created by appropriating amounts in the Statement of Movement on the General Fund Balance. Where expenditure to be financed from a reserve is incurred, it is charged to the Income and Expenditure Account and the reserve is then appropriated back also so that there is no net charge to LPFA at this point. General reserve The General Reserve is used to fund unexpected short term costs, principally relating to asbestosis claims. Certain reserves are kept to manage accounting processes and do not represent usable resources for LPFA. This is the pension reserve. Pension Reserve The Pension Reserve is not cash backed and represents the actuarially calculated deficit between the value of all pension liabilities and the pension assets held. Accounting for Retirement Benefits The financial statements disclose the cost of providing retirement benefits and related gains, losses, assets and liabilities. The effect of recognising retirement benefits in the balance sheet is a net liability and a pension reserve in the combined residual liabilities accounts. This relates to the compensation payments which are met on an annual basis by levies on London boroughs. 99

These liabilities reflect the current actuarial value of future payments and do not affect income and expenditure in 2015/16. The change in the net pension liability is analysed into the following components: Current service cost: the increase in pensions liabilities as a result of a years service; Past service costs: The increase in liabilities as a result of changes to plan arrangements in the current year with subsequent effects to years of service earned by the employee in previous year; Interest cost: the increase in the present value of the liabilities during the year as a result of moving one year closer to being paid; Change in financial assumptions: changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from a change in financial assumptions made by the actuary; Change in demographic assumptions: changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from a change in demographic assumptions made by the actuary; Experience loss/(gain) on defined benefit obligation: changes in the present value of the defined benefit obligation resulting from the effects of the differences between the previous actuarial assumptions and what has actually occurred; Unfunded pension payments: the decrease in scheme liabilities due to payments made to pensioners in the year. 3. Financial Risk Management The LPFA activities expose it to a variety of financial risks in respect of financial instruments. These have been outlined in the financial statements of the pension fund. 4. Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgment Provision LPFA have set aside a provision for its liabilities to meet the costs of asbestosis claims from former employees of the GLC and the ILEA. The provision is based on knowledge of existing claims and estimates of future claims liabilities. LPFA also has an estimate of future reimbursement of these costs from the London boroughs. The LPFA has been exploring the possibility that insurers of the GLC and ILEA may be liable in part for these costs as well as awaiting the impact that recent legislation in this area may have on future costs. Any potential impact will take a number of years to assess. Pensions Liability Estimation of the net liability to pay pensions depend on a number of complex judgements relating to the discount rate used, the rate at which salaries are projected to increase, changes in retirement ages, mortality rates and expected returns on pension fund assets. A firm of consulting actuaries are engaged to provide LPFA with expert advice about the assumptions to be applied. However, because these judgements cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could be materially different from the assumptions and estimates. 100

5. Segmental Information Management do not report segmental information in their monthly management accounts, hence the financial statements for the Residual Liabilities Account have been presented reflecting the non segmental nature of the entity s operations. 6. Asbestosis Provision The GLC is responsible for the settlement of claims made by former employees of the GLC and the ILEA who have become injured as a result of exposure to asbestos. Due to the long periods over which this illness can lay dormant the normal deadline for submitting injury claims has been waived. This means that the LPFA has liabilities estimated to last until about 2035. A provision has been established for the injury claims. The provision is based on knowledge of existing claims and estimates of future claims liabilities. The costs have been estimated in discussion with our legal advisers and take into account previous experience of claims over the last 20 years. The costs are met through the levy on the London boroughs. The future profile of claims is used to smooth any changes in the levy to, as far as possible, limit any changes to the levy, until it gradually decreases as the final liabilities are met. The LPFA does not fund these costs as they are passed on to the appropriate Greater London or Inner London Borough Councils who have a legal duty to reimburse the LPFA. As there is certainty that these costs will be reimbursed the future costs are offset by the reimbursed future income in the Comprehensive Income and Expenditure Statement and are shown separately on the balance sheet of the Residual Liability Fund. The movement in the asbestosis provision over the year is as follows. 101

Retirement Benefit Obligations The pension liability at 31 March has been determined by the LPFA s actuary Barnett Waddingham in accordance with IAS 19: Employee Benefits. The LPFA is also responsible for compensation payments arising from added years in respect of former staff of the GLC and ILEA and the London Residuary Body (LRB). These payments are recoverable from levies on the London Boroughs. The LPFA inherited some staff from the GLC, ILEA and LRB. In circumstances where staff leave the LPFA with retained staff benefit entitlement the cost of the discretionary added years is also borne by the levy. In relation to retirement benefits, statutory provisions require the General Fund balance to be charged with the amount payable by LPFA to the pension fund or directly to pensioners in the year, not the amount calculated according to the relevant accounting standards. In the Movement in Reserves Statement, this means that there are appropriations to and from the Pensions Reserve to remove the notional debits and credits for retirement benefits and replace them with debits for the cash paid to the pension fund and pensioners and any such amounts payable but unpaid at the year-end. The negative balance that arises on the Pensions Reserve thereby measures the beneficial impact to the General Fund of being required to account for retirement benefits on the basis of cash flows rather than as benefits are earned by employees. 103
