- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company is a going concern as its total equity of £6,310k (2024: £6,106k) is above the required level prescribed by the PRA and the company benefits from a non-discretionary bond from the Society. The directors have, at the time of approving the financial statements, a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. This includes consideration of the maintenance of sufficient capital, the recoverability of its debtors and an expectation that the Company will be able to meet its obligations as they fall due.”
Significant events
- “There have been no new contracts written during the year and no underwriting activity since 2013.”
- “As a result of a change in Society's Treasury & Investment operations, and in line with the approved investment parameters, the Company's assets are no longer invested in commingled short term deposits. The assets are now invested directly in a single liquidity fund of low-risk assets held to satisfy regulatory capital requirements.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
