- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis as they do not intend to liquidate the Company or to cease its operations, and as they have concluded that the Company's financial position means that this is realistic. They have also concluded that there are no material uncertainties that could have cast significant doubt over its ability to continue as a going concern for at least a year from the date of approval of the financial statements ("the going concern period").”
Significant events
- “The most notable catastrophe losses in 2024 were from the flooding in Dubai, Hurricanes Milton and Helene, Typhoon Yagi and hailstorms in Calgary, Canada. A reserve was also booked in 2024 for potential losses related to the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, US.”
- “In January 2025, California experienced a series of wildfires. Syndicate 1084 has experienced underwriting losses arising from the wildfires and the related recessionary impact, as part of the normal course of its activities.”
