Significant events
- “Lek Securities UK Limited was served in 2023 a Claim Form and Particulars of Claim on the company. The client's claims broadly relate to the services the company provided under a written Custody, Brokerage and Business Services Agreement, the status of assets transferred by the client to the company under Trust and charges the company levied under the Services Agreement. The company filed and served its Defence and Counterclaim. The Director has sought legal advice and believes the company has strong merits in defending its case and has firm grounds to advance its counterclaim.”

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
