STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2026

Introduction
 
CTA and Macro Strategies for Corporations Only Limited is a London-based financial services entity authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority focusing on alternative investment management.  In addition to investment management the Company also offer advice on investment portfolios.

Business review
 
During the year, the Company continued to operate managed accounts. The investment strategies employed benefited from favourable market conditions in precious metals, as well as in AI and defence sectors, contributing to a positive overall performance. The macro-oriented strategies launched during the period have also delivered satisfactory results. The Company intends to build on this foundation to support future growth in assets under management.

The Company continued to enhance its trading infrastructure to improve operational efficiency. A marketing campaign is scheduled to commence in 2027 to support business development objectives. The Company also maintained its appointed representative relationship throughout the year.

Principal risks and uncertainties
 
The Board of directors is responsible for determining the level of risk acceptable to the Company.  The Company seeks to mitigate its risk through the application of strict limits and controls and a monitoring process at operational level.  This is subject to a review at regular board meetings. 

Market risk
Market risk remains the most important as adverse market conditions will undermine the funds' performance and possibly result in the withdrawal of funds by investors. This risk is mitigated by analysing investment risks and then carefully diversifying investments.

Foreign currency risk
The Company has limited exposure to foreign currency risk. Whilst the Directors are aware of this exposure, they have determined that hedging is not currently necessary due to the immaterial nature of the amounts involved.

Regulatory risk 
The Company is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) and is therefore subject to applicable regulatory requirements. There is a risk that changes in regulation, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, could adversely affect the Company. The Company seeks to mitigate this risk through appropriate policies, procedures and compliance monitoring.

Operational risk
The Company is exposed to operational risks arising from systems, including systems disruption, human error or inadequate controls, could adversely affect the Company’s operations. The Company seeks to mitigate these risks through appropriate internal controls, procedures and ongoing monitoring.
 

Financial key performance indicators
 
The Directors consider the level of fee income to be the key performance indicator for the Company.

Given the straight forward nature of the business, the Company's Directors are of the opinion that analysis using any other financial key performance indicator is not necessary for an understanding of the development, performance, and position of the business.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2026

Remuneration Code
 
In accordance with the rules of the Financial Conduct Authority, the Company has made available information on its Remuneration Code. This information is available on request from the Company.

Directors' statement of compliance with duty to promote the success of the Company
 
The Board of Directors of CTA and Macro Strategies for Corporations Only Ltd consider that they have acted in the way they consider, in good faith, would be most likely to promote the success of the company for the benefit of its members as a whole (having regard to the stakeholders and matters set out in S172(1)(a-f) of the Act) in the decisions taken during the financial year ended 30 June 2026.

Consideration of long-term consequences are an inherent part of the Company's decision-making processes. As a privately-owned company, the Board considers that the interests of the Company and its shareholders are aligned in seeking sustainable value creation over the longer term through the company's operations, promoting long term strategic decision-making. These factors also drive a continuing focus on the maintenance of durable relationships with stakeholders, built on the company's reputation with clients and suppliers.

The Company is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority in the conduct of its investment business and must do so in good faith and with due diligence.

The Company operates in a sector characterised by long term relationships with stakeholders. Maintaining a reputation for high standards of business conduct is vital and the Company expects all members of the supply chain to always act with integrity, acting openly, honestly and ethically. The Company has zero tolerance to fraud and consistently maintains effective oversight and scrutiny processes, executed with independence and impartiality. Integrity is underpinned with policies in relation to bribery and corruption, data protection, equality, diversity and inclusion, fraud and whistleblowing, each of which is reinforced through appropriate measures.


This report was approved by the board on 21 October 2026 and signed on its behalf.

DIRECTORS' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2026

The Directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2026.

Directors

The Directors who served during the year were:

M Hanes 
H Hanes 
P Russo (resigned 21 August 2025)

Results and dividends

The profit for the year, after taxation, amounted to £18,652 (2025 - loss £3,549).

The Directors do not recommend any dividends.

Directors' responsibilities statement

The Directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
 
Company law requires the Directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the Directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. Under company law the Directors must not approve the financial statements 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 preparing these financial statements, the Directors are required to:


∙select suitable accounting policies for the Company's financial statements and then apply them consistently;

∙make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

∙state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

∙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 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 to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are 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.

DIRECTORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2026


Future developments

The Company considers that it is suitably positioned to respond to developments within the marketplace for the provision of investment management services. The adoption of artificial intelligence in research and coding processes has resulted in improvements in operational efficiency. The Company expects the use of this technology to continue to develop in a measured manner over time.

Macro-related investment strategies continue to represent an area of ongoing interest and are expected to provide a stable contribution to performance in an environment of increased market volatility.

Engagement with suppliers, customers and others

The Company does not conform to any code or standard regarding payment practice. However, it is the Company's policy to settle the terms of payment with suppliers when business is agreed, to ensure that suppliers are made aware of them and to pay invoices in accordance with these terms.

Disclosure of information to auditors

Each of the persons who are Directors at the time when this Directors' Report is approved has confirmed that:
 
∙so far as the Director is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the Company's auditors are unaware, and

∙the Director has taken all the steps that ought to have been taken as a Director in order to be aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the Company's auditors are aware of that information.

Post balance sheet events

There have been no significant events affecting the Company since the year end.

Auditors

Under section 487(2) of the Companies Act 2006, Sopher + Co LLP will be deemed to have been reappointed as auditors 28 days after these financial statements were sent to members or 28 days after the latest date prescribed for filing the accounts with the registrar, whichever is earlier.

This report was approved by the board on 21 October 2026 and signed on its behalf.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CTA AND MACRO STRATEGIES FOR CORPORATIONS ONLY LTD
 

Opinion


We have audited the financial statements of CTA and Macro Strategies for Corporations Only Ltd (the 'Company') for the year ended 30 June 2026, which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Cash Flows, the Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes, 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 30 June 2026 and of its profit for the year 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 United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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


In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.


Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.


Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CTA AND MACRO STRATEGIES FOR CORPORATIONS ONLY LTD (CONTINUED)

Other information


The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report 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.


Opinion 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 Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.


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 Directors' Report.


We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which 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 Directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
∙we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.


Responsibilities of directors
 

As explained more fully in the Directors' Responsibilities Statement set out on page 3, the Directors are 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 Directors determine is 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 Directors are 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 Directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CTA AND MACRO STRATEGIES FOR CORPORATIONS ONLY LTD (CONTINUED)

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 an Auditors' Report 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.


Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows: 
 
∙the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations; 
∙we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the Company through discussions with directors and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience of the financial services and investment advisory sector; 
∙we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the Company, including the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102, Financial Conduct Authority regulations, taxation legislation and data protection, anti-bribery, employment, environmental and health and safety legislation;
∙we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence; and 
∙identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. 

We assessed the susceptibility of the Company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by: 
 
∙making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; 
∙considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations; and 
∙understanding the design of the Company’s remuneration policies. 

To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we: 
 
∙performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships; 
∙tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions; 
∙assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias; and 
∙investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.

CTA AND MACRO STRATEGIES FOR CORPORATIONS ONLY LTD
 
 
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CTA AND MACRO STRATEGIES FOR CORPORATIONS ONLY LTD (CONTINUED)

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to: 
 
∙agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation;
∙enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and 
∙reviewing correspondence with HMRC, relevant regulators and the Company’s legal advisors.
There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and   regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. 

Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.


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 Auditors' Report.


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 an Auditors' Report 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.

General information

CTA and Macro Strategies for Corporations only Limited is a private company limited by shares and incorporated in England and Wales, with its registered office at 5 Elstree Gate, Elstree Way, Borehamwood, Hertfordshire, WD6 1JD.

2.Accounting policies

 
2.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.

The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company's accounting policies (see note 3).

The following principal accounting policies have been applied:

 
2.2

Foreign currency translation

Functional and presentation currency

The Company's functional and presentational currency is £ sterling.

Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.

Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

 
2.3

Turnover

Turnover is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Turnover is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:

Investment management fees are based on an annual contract and are recognised on a straight line basis.

Performance fees are recognised when they are earned.

Advisory fees are recognised when the services are provided.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2026

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.4

Current and deferred taxation

The tax expense for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the Company operates and generates income.

Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the reporting date, except that:
∙The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits; and
∙Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met.

Deferred tax balances are not recognised in respect of permanent differences except in respect of business combinations, when deferred tax is recognised on the differences between the fair values of assets acquired and the future tax deductions available for them and the differences between the fair values of liabilities acquired and the amount that will be assessed for tax. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.


 
2.5

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Plant and machinery
-
5%
Fixtures and fittings
-
20%
Computer equipment
-
33%

The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2026

2.Accounting policies (continued)

 
2.6

Valuation of investments

Current asset investments are recognised at their market value, where the market value can be reliably determined. These investments are remeasured to market value at each reporting date, and any resulting gains or losses from remeasurement are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income for the period. Where market value cannot be reliably determined, such investments are stated at historic cost less impairment.

 
2.7

Financial instruments

Basic financial instruments include trade and other debtors, trade and other creditors, cash and bank balances, bank and related party loans.

Trade and other debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price less attributable transaction costs. Trade and other creditors are recognised initially at transaction price plus attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses in the case of trade and other debtors. If the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, for example if payment is deferred beyond normal business terms, then it is measured at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest.

Interest bearing borrowings classified as basic financial instruments are recognised initially at the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits.

3.


Judgments in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the Company’s accounting policies described above, management are required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may be different.

These estimates are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to these estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision only affects that period, or in the period of revision and future periods if the revision affects both future and current periods.

The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are as follows:

Performance fees recognition
he Directors review the performance fees as variable consideration and recognise them based on the performance period. The fees are dependent on market movements outside the Company’s control.

Valuation of investments
The Directors review the valuation based on the market data availble and due to the volatility of the market, certain degree of estimation is involved.

Depreciation
Depreciation has been calculated on the fixed assets; the residual value and life of the asset has been estimated by the Directors.

Accruals
The Directors review the expected expenses based on their knowledge of the business and provide for these accordingly.
