NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021 |
1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Battleface Insurance Services Limited is a |
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the US Dollar ($). |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
Going concern basis |
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Continuing trade depends on the continued support of the group and related parties. Should the company be unable to continue to trade, adjustments would have to be made to reduce the value of the assets to their recoverable amounts to provide for any further liabilities which might arise. |
Related party exemption |
The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group. |
Summary of significant accounting policies |
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these accounts are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The company has adopted FRS 102 Section 1A in these accounts. |
Turnover |
Turnover represents brokerage arising from the placement of insurance contracts by the Company. |
Brokerage income is recognised at the date of inception of the underlying insurance contract subject to the policy having been substantially completed and subject to a deferral of brokerage in respect of post placement services that constitute obligations of the Company under those contracts. Adjustments relating to additional premiums and/or return premiums are accounted for as they arise. Income from monthly declarations is recognised when the declarations are received. |

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. |
Deferred tax |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date. |
Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |
Foreign currencies |
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
Debtors |
Short term debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment losses for bad and doubtful debts. Loans receivable are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. |
Creditors |
Short term trade creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. |
Insurance debtors and creditors |
The company acts as an agent in broking the insurable risks of its clients and, generally, is not liable as principal for premiums due to underwriters nor for claims payable to clients. Notwithstanding the company's legal relationship with clients and underwriters and since, in practice, premium and claims monies are usually accounted for by insurance intermediaries, it has shown cash, debtors and creditors relating to insurance business as assets and liabilities of the company itself. |
The company has followed generally accepted accounting practice and offsets debtors and creditors from insurance broking transactions only where it is legally enforceable. |
Cash at bank relating to insurance activities is held in a non-statutory trust, and is not readily available to meet the company's day to day working capital requirements. |

Provisions |
Provisions (i.e. liabilities of uncertain timing or amount) are recognised when there is an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that economic benefit will be transferred to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably. |
Government grants |
During the previous year the company received monies under the local authority Small Business Rates Relief Scheme. The amounts received are included within the accounts on an accruals basis. |
