Report by Dr Carlton Brand, Corporate Director

Councillor Philip Whitehead presented the report which updated the Cabinet on treasury management activities.

Matters highlighted in the course of the presentation and discussion included: the performance of investments over the period; the limited impact of the rate rise; how the level of risk is assessed.

In response to a question from Cllr Ian Thorn, Michael Hudson stated that some performance had been slightly behind projections due to the rate increase happening later than anticipated.
