Strategic Report |
for the Period 9 March 2018 to 31 March 2019 |
|
The director presents his strategic report for the period 9 March 2018 to 31 March 2019. |
|
REVIEW OF BUSINESS |
Fincofex Limited's principal activity during the period was e-money transaction and implementation services. |
|
Fincofex Limited promotes quality, efficiency and innovation. The company's mission is to provide competitive |
business payments, which translates into a product roadmap to transform businesses experience of payment |
processes. Some examples of the company's planned capabilities include virtual cards, prepaid cards, direct |
debits and international payments with 30+ currencies for over than 180 countries. |
|
Fincofex Limited is focused on continual growth of its revenue by expanding its customer base in already |
existing markets and to reach for new markets and grow worldwide. In addition, the company continues |
development of strategic partnerships with a belief that several industries can benefit from its services. |
|
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES |
Fincofex Limited's operations are exposed to different risks which could potentially affect the company. The |
director has carried out a robust assessment of the principal risks facing the group, including those that would |
threaten its business model, future performance or liquidity. The main risks and uncertainties that could affect |
the company are set out in the following paragraphs. |
|
REGULATORY RISK |
The company's regulatory risk is its compliance with applicable regulations for the activities it undertakes, |
such as the requirement to have robust governance arrangements or failure to observe money laundering |
guidelines. The company ensures that correct policies and procedures are in place with the rules of an |
Electronic Money Institution monitored and regulated by the FCA (Financial Conduct Authority). |
|
OPERATIONAL RISK |
Fincofex Limited relies heavily on its operational processes and IT and related communication systems. |
These processes and systems may not operate as expected, may not fulfil their intended purpose or may be |
damaged by disruptive events such as cybercrime or human error. |
|
The company is investing in robust operational systems and controls to be able to respond to unexpected |
events in an organised and timely manner and undertakes rigorous planning and testing. In addition, there is |
a risk of the bank freezing operational accounts. Banks can freeze the account in case it suspects fraudulent |
activities through platform. In order to address this type of risk Fincofex Limited has robust KYC and AML |
procedures, and performs ongoing monitoring of transactions. |
|
Fincofex Limited is committed to maintaining a control environment that enables it to respond effectively to |
emerging financial crime threats as the company continues to grow. |
|
LIQUIDITY RISK |
In order to ensure that sufficient funds are available for ongoing operations and future developments, |
Fincofex Limited is reliant on funds from shareholders. The company seeks to manage financial risk by |
ensuring sufficient liquidity and is available to meet foreseeable needs and to invest any surplus cash assets |
of the company safely and profitably, but based on the cash flow forecasts for Fincofex Limited, the director is |
confident that sufficient funds are in place for operations and developments. |

|
Strategic Report |
for the Period 9 March 2018 to 31 March 2019 |
|
BREXIT RISK |
Following the result of the UK referendum on membership of the EU, the UK is likely to leave the EU in 2019. |
The company relies on the ability to passport its FCA licence through Europe and the UK leaving the EU |
might impact those passporting rights. The company has evaluated a number of European jurisdictions in |
which to obtain an additional e-money licence so that the company's services can continue to be offered |
through Europe after the UK leaves the EU and the company plans to have appropriate additional licensing in |
place well in advance of any potential change to passporting rights. If the change to passporting rights is |
implemented, Fincofex Limited's customers using its services in the EU, other than in the UK, may need to be |
transferred to the newly licensed company's entity. The director continues to monitor developments and will |
respond accordingly. |

|
STATEMENT OF DIRECTOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES |
The director is responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Report of the Director and the financial |
statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. |
|
Company law requires the director to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the |
director has elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally |
Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company |
law the director must not approve the financial statements unless he is satisfied that they give a true and fair |
view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In |
preparing these financial statements, the director is required to: |
|
- | select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; |
- | make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
- |
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the
company will continue in business. |
|
The director is responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain |
the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the |
company and enable him to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. He is |
also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the |
prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. |
|
STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS |
So far as the director is aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the |
Companies Act 2006) of which the company's auditors are unaware, and he has taken all the steps that he |
ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to |
establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information. |

Report of the Director |
for the Period 9 March 2018 to 31 March 2019 |
|
|
AUDITORS |
The auditors, Botham Accounting Limited, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual |
General Meeting. |
|
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
Fincofex Limited |
|
Opinion |
We have audited the financial statements of Fincofex Limited (the 'company') for the period ended |
31 March 2019 which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, Statement of Financial Position, |
Statement of Changes in Equity, Statement of Cash Flows and Notes to the Financial Statements, including a |
summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their |
preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting |
Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United |
Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). |
|
In our opinion the financial statements: |
- |
give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 March 2019 and of its loss for the
period then ended; |
- |
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice;
and |
- | have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. |
|
Basis for opinion |
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and |
applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' |
responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the |
company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements |
in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in |
accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and |
appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. |
|
Conclusions relating to going concern |
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to |
report to you where: |
- |
the director's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is
not appropriate; or |
- |
the director has not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast
significant doubt about the company's ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue. |
|
Other information |
The director is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the |
Strategic Report and the Report of the Director, but does not include the financial statements and our Report |
of the Auditors thereon. |
|
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent |
otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. |
|
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, |
in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or |
our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such |
material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a |
material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, |
based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other |
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. |
|
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 |
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: |
- |
the information given in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Director for the financial year for which
the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and |
- |
the Strategic Report and the Report of the Director have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal
requirements. |
Report of the Independent Auditors to the Members of |
Fincofex Limited |
|
|
Matters on which we are required to report by exception |
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of |
the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Report of the Director. |
|
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to |
report to you if, in our opinion: |
- |
adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received
from branches not visited by us; or |
- | the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or |
- | certain disclosures of director's remuneration specified by law are not made; or |
- | we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or |
- |
the director was not entitled to take advantage of the small companies' exemption from the requirement to
prepare a Strategic Report. |
|
Responsibilities of director |
As explained more fully in the Statement of Director's Responsibilities set out on page four, the director is |
responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair |
view, and for such internal control as the director determines necessary to enable the preparation of financial |
statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. |
|
In preparing the financial statements, the director is responsible for assessing the company's ability to |
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going |
concern basis of accounting unless the director either intends to liquidate the company or to cease |
operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. |
|
Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements |
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free |
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors that includes |
our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit |
conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. |
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, |
they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these |
financial statements. |
|
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial |
Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our |
Report of the Auditors. |
|
Use of our report |
This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of |
the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's |
members those matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Auditors and for no other purpose. |
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the |
company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we |
have formed. |

1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
|
Fincofex Limited is a
|
company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information |
page. |
|
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" and the Companies |
Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. |
|
The functional and presentational currency of Fincofex Limited is considered to be pounds sterling. |
The financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound. |
|
Turnover |
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, |
rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. |
|
Taxation |
Taxation for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Statement of |
Comprehensive Income, 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. |
|
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 period 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 into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at |
the statement of financial position date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling |
at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account |
in arriving at the operating result. |
