"The success of the most significant corporate event of 2019 is clear in our results and we continued to reap the benefits of the enlarged Group in the first four months of the current year. Despite the challenges of the Coronavirus emergency the Group's performance is stable and remains in line with budget.

"All this is the output of a clear vision, strong management, a shared sense of ownership throughout the Group and an incredible team of world class professionals. All these strengths were immediately clear when the Coronavirus emergency struck. As a Group we initiated clear actions to protect the finances of the business and each or our subsidiary businesses developed effective commercial initiatives to retain existing clients and continue winning new mandates to expand the client base.
