Audit & accounting basis
From AI-extracted PDF accounts
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Larking Gowen LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors have, at the time of approving the financial statements, a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. When setting these expectations, the directors have considered forecasts for the coming three years, taking into account the impact of the changing economic conditions, and the scheduled EOT payments to be made by the immediate parent undertaking.”
Subsidiaries
- S&P Nominees Limited · 100% held · England
- Overburys Financial Services Limited · 45% held · England · Financial services
Significant events
- “We expect, investment markets to continue to be volatile in the year ahead, particularly with a new Government legislation expected to be announced in the autumn budget.”
- “The regulatory environment will continue to be challenging, with the new FCA's Consumer Duty initiative being introduced in 2023. We feel that this will drive some smaller IFAs to look for the exit completely or for the comfort from being part of a larger organisation. This will create acquisition opportunities.”
