Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- IFRS
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Ernst & Young LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future (being 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements). Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Cost of sales were £52m (9.5%) higher in 2024 than 2023. The increase is principally driven by £25m higher salary costs due to the incorporation of former Nationwide staff into the new Aegon Financial Planning advice channel, following the acquisition by Origen Financial Services Limited (a fellow subsidiary of Aegon UK plc) and annual pay increases in 2024, along with £4m higher associated NI costs and £3m pension costs. There were £8m higher termination costs in 2024”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
