Trust Funds and Reserves
Trust Capital
The Original Capital of the Foundation arose from the sale of shares in Trust Bank Limited. The Original Capital and the Capital Maintenance Reserve form the Trust Capital. Trustees have resolved to preserve the Trust Capital for the benefit of present and future generations. This is achieved by setting aside each year sufficient sums from Reserves to increase the Trust Capital by the annual rate of inflation as measured by the Consumer Price Index and the rate of population growth in the region served by the Foundation.
Revaluation Reserves
The sole reserve is an amount of $396,976 which arose on the revaluation of a building
