Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 December 2020

  • 1. Accounting policies

    Basis of measurement and preparation

    These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A (Small Entities) of Financial Reporting Standard 102

    Turnover policy

    Turnover represents amounts receivable from the Company’s ordinary activities, stated net of value added tax and any other applicable sales taxes. The Company recognises turnover when control of the goods or services passes to the customer, in accordance with the requirements of FRS 102 Section 1A. For Swifin Platform Ltd, turnover is generated primarily from the following streams: Subscription Fees Recognised evenly over the subscription period, reflecting the ongoing provision of access to the Company’s platforms and services. Transaction Fees Recognised at the point a transaction is executed on the platform, when the associated service has been delivered to the user. Membership Fees Recognised on a systematic basis over the membership term, reflecting the continuous nature of membership benefits. Software and Web Portal Services Where fees relate to bespoke software development or web portal enhancements, revenue is recognised over time as development milestones are completed and accepted by the customer. One-off or perpetual licence fees are recognised upon delivery of the software or portal solution if the Company has satisfied its performance obligations. The Company continually reviews its turnover policy to ensure it remains aligned with applicable accounting standards and accurately reflects the substance of its contractual arrangements.

    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    Tangible fixed assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any recognised impairment losses. Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of these assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic lives using the straight-line method. The principal annual rates are as follows: Computer Equipment – 3 years Office Equipment – 3 to 5 years Furniture and Fittings – 5 years Motor Vehicles – 4 years Depreciation is charged from the date the asset is available for use and ceases on the earlier of the date the asset is classified as held for sale or the date it is derecognised. The carrying values of tangible fixed assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.

    Intangible fixed assets amortisation policy

    Intangible fixed assets are capitalised at cost when it is probable that the expected future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to the Company and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. These assets are subsequently carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is charged so as to write off the cost of each asset over its estimated useful economic life on a straight-line basis. For Swifin Platform Ltd, the typical amortisation periods are as follows: Developed Software and Related Intellectual Property – 3 to 5 years Licences and Other Intangibles – Over the term of the licence or estimated useful economic life Where an asset has an indefinite useful life, it is not amortised but is tested for impairment at least annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date.

    Valuation information and policy

    Swifin Platform Ltd recognises assets and liabilities in accordance with applicable accounting standards, ensuring that valuations reflect reliable, relevant, and comparable information. The Company follows these principles: Historical Cost Convention Where no active market or readily determinable fair value exists, assets are valued at cost, adjusted for depreciation or amortisation and any impairment losses. Fair Value Measurement Where an active market exists or a reliable valuation can be obtained, fair value measurements are employed to ensure that assets and liabilities are stated at amounts for which they could be exchanged in an orderly transaction. Any changes in fair value are recognised in accordance with relevant standards. Intangible Assets Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses, unless an active market valuation is available. The carrying values are reviewed periodically to determine whether adjustments to their fair value or amortised cost are required. Impairment Reviews All asset valuations are monitored for any indicators of impairment. Where there is evidence that an asset’s recoverable amount has fallen below its carrying value, an impairment charge is recognised immediately in the profit and loss account. By adhering to these principles, Swifin Platform Ltd ensures the integrity and transparency of its financial reporting, providing stakeholders with relevant and reliable valuation information.

  • 2. Employees

    2020
    Average number of employees during the period 1

    The Company’s operational model is highly streamlined, relying heavily on outsourced arrangements with partner institutions and third-party service providers. This approach enables Swifin Platform Ltd to minimise its direct headcount and maintain a lean organisation. Consequently, the Company’s internal workforce is small, with specialised functions. Particularly those related to information technology largely outsourced to reputable, industry-leading providers. This strategy ensures efficiency, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness across core and support processes.

4. Financial Commitments

At the reporting date, Swifin Platform Ltd had no material capital commitments contracted but not provided for in these financial statements. The Company’s principal financial commitments arise primarily from its contractual arrangements with external service providers. These commitments, which typically include information technology outsourcing agreements and other professional support services, are governed by multi-year contracts and subscription-based arrangements. The Directors have reviewed the Company’s financial commitments and are satisfied that appropriate resources are in place to meet all obligations as they fall due. The Company continues to monitor its contractual exposures to ensure prudent management of any ongoing or future financial liabilities.
