Authorisation being cancelled
This firm has asked the FCA to cancel its authorisation. It is still in force until the FCA processes the application, so existing business keeps its protection, but its regulated work is winding down.

About these figures
- Turnover
- Money taken from sales in the year, before any costs.
- Profit before tax
- What was left after the year’s costs, before corporation tax. A minus figure is a loss.
- Net assets, or total equity
- Everything the company owns minus everything it owes. A minus figure means it owes more than it owns.
- Total assets and total liabilities
- Everything the company owns, and everything it owes, on the last day of the year. The gap between them is its net assets.
- Cash at bank
- Money in the company’s accounts on the last day of the year.
- Owed within a year, owed after a year
- Debts and bills due in the next twelve months, and those due later.
There is no turnover or profit: small companies do not have to publish them.
Accounts filed at Companies House for company 07384980. Every figure is as filed, apart from total assets and total liabilities, which are added up from filed figures. Nothing is estimated.
