- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The directors consider that they have sufficient mitigating actions available to them to manage any risks arising, and accordingly, the directors believe the going concern basis is appropriate as the basis of preparation for these financial statements.”
Significant events
- “In 2024, the Company achieved its goal of becoming an authorised E-Money issuer, marking a significant milestone in strengthening its market position.”
- “Client feedback has been highly positive, particularly regarding the flexibility this status offers most notably through the introduction of nominated currency accounts, which have streamlined foreign customer credit control for many of our clients.”
- “Looking ahead to 2025, we anticipate a substantial increase in E-Money deposit within our safeguarded accounts, driving higher interest income. While the additional income from higher interest inflows is valuable, the directors view the true opportunity of the new permission is in leveraging our growing client base to cross-sell our core foreign exchange products, further strengthening our primary revenue stream.”
