Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Ernst & Young LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' 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 Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
Significant events
- “The Company underwrote, on behalf of a number of insurance companies, £67m of gross written premiums in 2024 (£80m in 2023). Commission has decreased at a lower rate due to renegotiated higher commission rates with insurers. Claims handling income has increased to £3.6m (£2.9m in 2023) due to rate increases.”
- “On 26 February and 27 August 2025, the Company approved to pay dividends of £1m and £4m respectively to its immediate parent, AMT Intermediaries Limited.”

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
