  • p4Cash investment balances as at 30 June 2026 have fallen by 52% in one year, from £137.2m at Q1 2025/26 to £65.5m due to continued use of cash balances to support the capital programme and revenue cashflow requirements whilst new borrowing is delayed during a time of elevated rates. The average investment return over Q1 was 4.01% performing above the benchmark rate by 28 basis points (or 0.28 percentage points). Performance has reduced marginally because of maturing investments being placed in a lower interest rate environment and for a shorter duration, due to cashflow.
