Material uncertainty over going concern
It is the Directors' intention to cease operations within the next 12 months and liquidate the Company. As at 31 December 2023 six employees plus all revenue and associated costs were transferred from Cranbrook Underwriting Limited to Burns and Wilcox Global Solutions (formerly known as Chesterfield Insurance Brokers Limited) (Registered Number: 03013489) a Company under common ownership. Therefore, the Directors do not consider it to be appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. On this basis, the Directors have prepared the financial statements on a basis other than going concern.
