- Affirmed
“The company ceased trading in March 2025. The company has net assets of £221,200 and sufficient cash resources to meet liabilities as they fall due. Given the commitment and support from the parent company, the Directors believe that the preparation of the financial statements on a going concern basis is appropriate.”
Significant events
- “The company ceased trading in March 2025 hence all of the above operations are discontinued.”
- “Post year end the brokerage activities of the company have been transferred to another entity within the Group, Asset Alliance Leasing Limited. As such, the activities of Forest Asset Finance Limited have been treated as discontinued and ultimately the company will become dormant.”
