Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers

- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future (which has been taken as at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements). No material uncertainties that cast significant doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern have been identified by the Directors. The Company therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.”
Significant events
- “As at 9 May 2024, the German branch was deregistered.”
- “As at 23 September 2024, the French branch was deregistered.”
- “During the current financial year, the Company transitioned from a model B to a model A clearing structure that is more widely utilised by institutional brokers in the market and aligned with client preferences.”
- “During the current financial year, the Company updated its Terms of Business with its UK customers (including the terms and conditions with Macquarie affiliates) trading in international markets. Under these updated terms, rights and obligations are now passed on to other Macquarie affiliates, and the Company will no longer recognise these international unsettled trades on its balance sheet.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
