Furthermore, the documents show the Vatican is steadily 'hoto depleting its assets by dipping into investment capital to ·oH make up the di((erence between income and expenses - a practice contrary to sound financial management - which could lead to future financial difficulties. The documents, which include budget summaries for 1985 and other financial information, show the Vatican at the end of 1985 had assets of $485 million and liabilities of $261 million for a total net worth of $224 million. The assets do not include artistic, archeological and historical holdings, St. Peter's Basilica in Rome which includes some of the world's most famous works and which the Vatican says it will not sell. Nor do the figures include the assets of the controversial Vatican bank, which is financially independent.
