“Over recent financial years the Directors have been through a cost cutting exercise to reduce the Company's operational expenses whilst maintaining its revenue, leading to the company making a loss of £17,378 (2024: Profit of £27,798) in the current year. The Directors expect the Company to maintain performance around a breakeven point for at least 12 months from the approval of the financial statements. The Directors confirm their intention to manage the available cash in the best interests of the Company. There was a positive cash position at the year end £329,114. This positive position has been maintained after the year end. The Directors have received confirmation from Blackwell Global Investments Limited (Bahamas), a connected company, that they will support the company where necessay to ensure the Company can continue operating for at least 12 months from sign off and will not recall an amounts owed if it would financially disadvantage the Company.”
Significant events
- “The Directors conducted a strategic review of the business in the first half of the year (2024) and concluded that the regulatory and competitive environment for retail business was not an area worth pursuing. Consequently the decision was taken to apply for a variation of permission with the FCA at the beginning of 2025. I am pleased to say that the variation was granted in June 2025 and consequently the firm will now focus solely on providing services to individuals and corporates that qualify as professional investors. The main focus of the business will be introducing professional clients, with complex trading needs, to counterparties that provide the service they require. The firm will also provide bespoke trading solutions through reception and transmission of orders.”

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
