- “During 2025, the collaboration arrangement with MS ACS where MS ACS provided funds to the Company's Employee Benefit Trust ('EBT') was cancelled. In 2024, MS ACS established its own EBT and assets matching the full related payable balance with MS ACS of £5.3 million were transferred to the MS ACS EBT on 11 March 2025.”
- “After the reporting date, a conflict arose in the Middle East. Syndicate 2001 has experienced underwriting losses arising from the conflict as part of the normal course of its activities. Management has determined that the Company's ability to receive the Managing Agent's fee from Syndicate 2001 is not materially affected.”
