In addition, Tullett Prebon plc makes the following disclosures in compliance
with provisions 4.1.3 and 6.3.5 (2) of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules:
The Annual Financial Report contains a directors' responsibility statement in
the form set out below:
"The directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the
financial statements in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each
financial year. Under that law the directors are required to prepare financial
statements for the Group in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards (`IFRS') as adopted by the European Union and Article 4 of the IAS
Regulation and have chosen to prepare the Parent Company Financial Statements
in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (`UK
GAAP'). Under company law the directors must not approve the accounts unless
they are 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 the case of the Group Financial Statements, International Accounting
Standard 1 requires that directors:
- select and apply accounting policies properly;
- present information, including accounting policies, in a manner that provides
relevant, reliable, comparable and understandable information;
- provide additional disclosures when compliance with the specific requirements
in IFRS is insufficient to enable users to understand the impact of particular
transactions, other events and conditions on the entity's financial position
and financial performance; and
- make an assessment of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
In the case of the Parent Company Financial Statements, the directors are
required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed; and
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is
inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which
disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the
Company, for safeguarding the assets, for taking reasonable steps for the
prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities and for the
preparation of a Directors' Report and Report on Directors' Remuneration which
comply with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the Company
website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and
dissemination of financial statements differs from legislation in other
jurisdictions.
Responsibility statement
The directors confirm, to the best of their knowledge, that:
- the financial statements, prepared in accordance with the relevant financial
reporting framework, give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities,
financial position and profit or loss of the Company and the undertakings
included in the consolidation taken as a whole; and
- the business review, which is incorporated into the Directors' Report,
includes a fair review of the development and performance of the business and
the position of the Company and the undertakings included in the consolidation
taken as a whole, together with a description of the principal risks and
uncertainties that they face."
The financial statements and management report from the Annual Financial Report
2009 were released via RNS on 8 March 2010 at 7am and form part of this
announcement.
