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 & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Auditor
- Alison Whalley FCA Azets Audit Services Ltd
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “Managed the IMA Accreditation Scheme for money advisers, including further development of: the Certificate of Credit in Money Advice Practice (CertMAP), the IMA's Continuing Professional Development scheme and the IMA's Professional Code of Conduct.”
- “Held an in-person Annual Conference and, later in the year, to ensure the events were accessible to as many members as possible, delivered a virtual Annual Conference.”
- “Provided a commercial case-file audit service to support the development and assurance of quality in the sector.”
- “Implemented an Equality Diversity and Inclusion strategy.”
- “Increased our policy and influencing profile, campaigning on issues affecting IMA members and responding to external consultations and calls for evidence.”
- “Began piloting a non-technical mentoring scheme, which will be evaluated in 2025 as a possible new membership benefit.”
- “Launched an IMA podcast, 'Debt Reckoning', with the IMA's Policy Officer and Money Advice Specialist discussing topics of interest to IMA members, with occasional guests.”
