- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have determined that the going concern basis is appropriate for these financial statements despite the losses reported by the Company prior to the current year. The directors have arrived at this view after considering the positive impact of action undertaken to improve the profitability of the Company, the existence of a £200m loan facility from CEGSE and the continuing support for the Company from within the Chubb Group.”

Significant events
- “The Virgin Media Limited v NTL Pension Trustees II Limited decision, handed down by the High Court on 16 June 2023, considered the implications of Section 27 of the Pension Schemes Act 1993. Ace London Pension Scheme and the Ace London Services Retirement Benefit Scheme may be impacted by the Virgin Media judgment. Section 27 of the Pension Schemes Act 1993 only allowed the rules of the contracted-out schemes in respect to benefits, to be altered where certain requirements were met. Following an appeal on 25 July 2024, the Court of Appeal upheld the High Court's decision, that the statutory actuarial confirmation was required, and without this, alterations to schemes were void.”

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
