- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Despite current global economic and political backdrop and ongoing inflationary pressures, the Directors consider the Company's future prospects remain positive and plans are in place to ensure the performance of the Company continues. These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis and the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least 12 months from the date of the approval of this report.”
Significant events
- “Over 2024 a number of long awaited pension scheme regulatory changes came into force. The General Code was introduced in March 2024 setting out regulatory expectations on how pension schemes should comply with the 2018 Governance Regulations. These changes in regulatory requirements helped to generate additional revenues in 2024.”
- “Identifying wider opportunities in the market has also continued through partnering with other companies within the ZEDRA Group such as the Escrow proposition which was launched in 2024.”
- “Benefits and compensation packages were restructured in 2024 to ensure we remain competitive.”
- “The Directors are satisfied that there are no material events post the balance sheet date which would have an effect on these financial statements.”

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
