Going concern

Affirmed

“The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. Notwithstanding the impact of worldwide events since the year end on investment values, the budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.”

Significant events

• “During the period October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2024, the CBF received funds for existing and new grant agreements including USD 1.8 Million from UNEP for the Caribbean Blue Economy Financing Project, USD 1.6 Million under the Caribbean Organisation for a Resilient Environment (CORE) Project, USD 149 Thousand from the Blue Nature Alliance, USD 1.4 Million for USAID Sustainable Finance for Caribbean Regional Conservation project, and USD 82 Thousand for UNEP Project Preparation Grant.”
• “The EbA Facility has been extended to 2030 adding one more Call for Proposals to its portfolio. As a result of this, the EbA Facility received an additional EUR 10 million from KfW in January 2024.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
