Significant events

• “The Company's business is subject to geopolitical risks that are outside of its control. These have the potential to impact investor confidence and therefore activity levels within capital markets businesses. Conflicts in Ukraine and Middle East carry a risk of escalation with increases in energy and commodity prices and adverse impact on global shipping. Possibility of a global trade war could further exacerbate an already uncertain situation. Such events could adversely impact the Company's revenue and operating margin.”
• “The global outbreak of COVID-19, which was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organisation in March 2020, is an example of such a risk. Although the risk from COVID-19 has largely receded and the Company's operating resilience proved successful during the pandemic, there is a risk that such systems, processes, and procedures may not be successful in the event of future pandemics.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
