1.	STATUTORY INFORMATION

Kingsbridge Group Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).

2.	ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Preparation of consolidated financial statements

The financial statements contain information about Kingsbridge Group Limited as an individual company and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company is exempt under Section 401(2) of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirements to prepare consolidated financial statements as it and its subsidiary undertakings are included by full consolidation in the consolidated financial statements of its holding company White Mountains Insurance Group Limited, Hanover, New Hampshire, USA.

Investments in subsidiaries

Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost.

Financial instruments

Basic financial instruments are recognised at amortised cost.

Non-basic financial instruments are initially recorded at cost and thereafter at fair value with changes recognised in the profit and loss.

Taxation

Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Going concern

The Directors are required to prepare the statutory financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business. In satisfaction of this responsibility the Directors have also considered the Company’s ability to meet its liabilities as they fall due.

The Directors have also paid special attention to the recent COVID-19 outbreak and the potential associated impact on the Company.

The Directors have therefore reviewed the current and future financial position of the Company, its cash flows, and its liquidity position, specifically in respect of the above and the potential disruption to the business arising from a prolonged period of economic downturn, and any impact that this may have on the future of the industry both on the markets specifically targeted by the company and the industry as a whole.

Although it is not possible to reliably forecast the length or severity of the COVID-19 outbreak, at the date of approval of the financial statements, the Directors were confident that the existing reserves and support from within the White Mountains Insurance Group together with external facilities will provide sufficient headroom to meet the forecast cash requirements that may have arisen from a downturn in activity as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

As such, the Directors consider that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.
