1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Connect Insurance Brokers 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.

2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

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

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and are presented
in Pounds Sterling (£) being the functional currency.

The financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the company is able to carry
on business as a going concern, which the directors consider appropriate having regard to the
company's current and expected performance.

Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding
discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

Goodwill
Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business in 2002, is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of twenty years.

Intangible assets
Computer software is being amortised evenly over is estimated useful life of three years.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Freehold property - 2% on cost
Office furniture and equipment - 20% on reducing balance

Financial instruments
Basic financial instruments are recognised at amortised cost, except for investments in
non-convertible preference and non-puttable ordinary shares which are measured at fair value, with
changes recognised in profit or loss. Derivative financial instruments are initially recorded at cost
and thereafter at fair value with changes recognised in profit or loss.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax if applicable. 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 statement of financial position date.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed
at the statement of financial position 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.
