Audit & accounting basis
From AI-extracted PDF accounts
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Blick Rothenberg Audit LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“After making enquiries, the director has a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence and meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future, being a period of at least twelve months from the date these financial statements were approved. Accordingly, he continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Geopolitical uncertainty continued to remain prevalent throughout the reporting period. Both the Russia/Ukraine and the Israel/Hamas conflict are still ongoing. These, combined with a lack of clarity on the nature and extent of US tariffs, have created a testing international trade environment. Intra period volatility was significant which contributed to high volumes of trading particularly in the derivatives markets.”
- “In the reporting period the most significant event that has happened is the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the international sanctions placed on Russia. The company has implemented policies to ensure it is compliant with those sanctions, in this regard the director has acted in accordance with the Act.”
- “On 1 April 2025 BGC Group, Inc. acquired OTC Global Holdings LP. BGC Group, Inc. is listed on the Nasdaq. Prior to the acquisition, OTC Global Holdings, LP was the parent undertaking of the largest group of undertakings of which the company was a member.”
