- Going concern
- Affirmed
“While there can be no absolute certainty, having considered the current results of the Company, the potential ongoing impact of market volatility (including severe but plausible downside scenarios), and the Company's liquidity position, net assets and regulatory capital surplus, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has sufficient resources to meet its liabilities as they fall due and will therefore be able to continue to operate as a going concern.”
