Significant events
- “During the year, Tradition London Clearing Limited acquired 100% of Tradition (UK) Limited (a previously related entity under the Tradition UK Group) from Tradition UK Holdings Limited for a total consideration of £100m which was settled by the issuance of shares in Tradition London Clearing Limited.”
- “Since the Russian and Ukraine conflict, resulting in sanctions targeting Russia's financial sector, strategic sectors and individuals close to the regime, all trading with sanctioned clients has been terminated.”
- “The global geopolitical environment remains uncertain, with ongoing conflicts and tensions, including the Russia-Ukraine war, the Israel-Hamas conflict, geopolitical developments involving the United States and Venezuela, and increasing strategic tensions between Iran and the US.”
- “On 28 February 2026, a conflict arose in the Middle East. Management has assessed the potential impact of this event on the Company's operations, financial position, and performance. Based on this assessment, the conflict does not affect the Company's financial statements as at 31 December 2025, and no adjustments are required.”

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
