CONSOLIDATED REPORTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022
GRAND FORTUNE HIGH GRADE LIMITED
CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022
I am pleased to present the consolidated reports and financial statements for
the year from 1 May 2021 to 30 April 2022. During the year, the Group reported
a loss of £281,868 (loss of £399,083 for the period from 1 May 2020 to 30
April 2021) which arose from professional fees, salaries, wages, rent and
office and general expenses in connection with the ongoing operations of the
Group. As at the date of signing this report the Group has approximately
£1.7 Million of cash balances.
Following its listing on the London Stock Exchange on 22 May 2017, the Group
has been focused on the development of its financial training business in
order to satisfy the significant demand for financial sector specialists in
China. To assist in that development, the Group established a 100% owned
subsidiary in Hong Kong - Grand Fortune High Grade (HK) Limited which in turn
has a 100% owned subsidiary in mainland China - Shen Zhen Shi Ji Fu Education
Information Consulting Co. Ltd. (and the consolidated financial statements
presented herein comprise of the financial statements of Grand Fortune High
Grade Limited, Grand Fortune High Grade (HK) Limited and Shen Zhen Shi Ji Fu
Education Information Consulting Co. Ltd.).
Grand Fortune High Grade Limited held its shareholder meeting on 5 November
2021. All items proposed were approved by 100% of the votes cast at the
meeting. Following the meeting, the Board of Directors was comprised of Wong
Lee Chun (re-elected), Angus Irvine (re-elected) and Ko Kwan (elected).
The past three years have been challenging. The challenges of the COVID-19
pandemic have had had a devastating effect on the global economy and on the
ability of the Group to offer financial training courses in person. Despite
the Group's best efforts, there has not been any revenue generated from its
financial training business and the Group has not yet been successful in
developing an online training platform. The implementation and success of
the online training platform remains one of the biggest tests for the Group.
As the business activities develop, the Group will keep shareholders advised
of its activities. We appreciate the assistance of our officers, directors
and advisors as we work towards the development of our business.

DIRECTORS' CONSOLIDATED REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022
Directors' consolidated report
The directors present their consolidated report together with the audited
consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 April 2022. The
consolidated report fairly presents and discloses the financial position and
the results at the dates and for the periods to which they apply.
Principal activity and future developments
Grand Fortune High Grade Limited (individually, or collectively with its
subsidiary, Grand Fortune High Grade (HK) Limited ("GFHG HK") and GFHG HK's
wholly owned subsidiary Shen Zhen Shi Ji Fu Education Information Consulting
Co. Ltd. ("Ji Fu Education"), as applicable, the "Group") is focused on the
development of its financial training business in order to satisfy the
significant demand for financial sector specialists in China.
Business review and management report
The loss on ordinary activities for the year ended 30 April 2022 was £281,868
(loss of £399,083 for the year ended 30 April 2021).
The Group had cash at bank and in hand of £1,766,865 as at 30 April 2022. The
principal risks and uncertainties that the Group faces are in developing its
financial training business in China, which is a new market. The Group is
aiming to tailor and deliver courses that are appropriate for the market but
there is no guarantee there will be a sufficient demand for the courses
offered.
The Group has not carried out any activities in the field of research and
development.
There have been no subsequent events that have occurred since the end of the
financial year.
Dividends
The directors do not recommend the payment of a final dividend for the year.

DIRECTORS' CONSOLIDATED REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022
(CONTINUED)
Substantial shareholdings
Except for the interests of those persons set out below, the Directors are not
aware of any interest which, at the date of this document would amount to 3%
or more of Grand Fortune High Grade Limited's issued share capital:
Name Number of Ordinary Shares Approximate % Holding
Kit Ling Law 32,339,084 20.21%
Hundred River Ltd. (Wong Lee Chun) 31,996,100 19.99%
Directors' Remuneration
Directors' emoluments are detailed in Notes 9 and 12 to the accounts.
Auditors
A resolution re-appointing Crowe U.K. LLP as auditors of the Group was
approved by shareholders at the annual general meeting held on 5 November
2021.
Going concern
The Group is focused on the development of a financial training business in
China, and, apart from a small amount of interest receivable, it currently has
no significant income stream. Until the training business has been adequately
developed and is generating significant revenue, it is therefore dependent on
its cash reserves to fund ongoing costs. At 30 April 2022, the Group's cash
position was £1,766,865.
After reviewing the Group's budget for the period ending 31 October 2023 and
its medium-term plans, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the
Group will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for
the foreseeable future.
For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing
the accounts.
Financial risk management
The Group's financial risk management objective is to minimise, as far as
possible, the Group's exposure to such risk as detailed in note 14 to the
accounts.
GRAND FORTUNE HIGH GRADE LIMITED
DIRECTORS' CONSOLIDATED REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022
(CONTINUED)
Principal Risks and Uncertainties Facing the Group
The principal risks and uncertainties facing the Group are: (1) The Group's
success is dependent on the successful development of a financial training
business in China, and for the year ended 30 April 2022, apart from a small
amount of interest receivable, the Group did not generate any revenue and
there are no guarantees that the Group will develop a training business that
will generate sufficient revenue to cover the expenses of the Group; and (2)
Until the training business has been adequately developed and generating
significant revenue, the Group is dependent on its cash reserves to fund
ongoing costs - there are no guarantees that the Group will be successful in
replenishing those cash reserves once depleted.
COVID-19 Risks
The emergency measures taken within mainland China and Hong Kong to combat the
COVID-19 pandemic may continue, could be expanded, and could also be
reintroduced in the future following relaxation. As these governments
implement monetary and fiscal policy changes aimed to help stabilize economies
and capital markets, we cannot predict legal and regulatory responses to
concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic and related public health issues and how
these responses may impact our business. The COVID-19 pandemic, actions taken
within mainland China and in Hong Kong in response to it, and the ensuing
economic downturn has caused significant disruption to business activities and
economies. The depth, breadth and duration of these disruptions remain highly
uncertain at this time. Furthermore, these governments are developing
frameworks for the staged resumption of business activities. As a result, it
is difficult to predict how significant the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic,
including any responses to it, will be on the global economy and our business.
The impact of COVID-19 has significantly reduced the ability of the Group to
currently provide its training programs in a face-to-face setting and the
ability to provide face-to-face training programs in the future is
uncertain. As a result, the Group is developing an online training platform
for its offered programs. The implementation and success of this online
training platform is uncertain.
Corporate governance
Due to the size and nature of the Group, it has not adopted the UK Corporate
Governance Code. However, it has adopted corporate governance procedures as
are appropriate for the size and nature of the Group and the size and
composition of the Board. These corporate governance procedures have been
selected with due regard to for the provisions of the UK Corporate Governance
Code insofar as is appropriate. A description of these procedures is set out
below:
· Due to the nature and size of the Group, it does not have separate
audit, remuneration and nomination committees. The Board as a whole will
instead review risk, compliance, and nominations matters, as well as the
Board's size, structure, and composition, considering the interests of the
Shareholders and the performance of the Group. Once the Group has achieved
sufficient growth, the Board intends to put in place audit, remuneration and
nomination committees;
GRAND FORTUNE HIGH GRADE LIMITED
DIRECTORS' CONSOLIDATED REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022
(CONTINUED)
· the Board is not subject to the provisions of a formal governance
code and given its present size do not intend to formally adopt any specific
code nor any diversity policy, but will apply the principles of governance,
set out in the UK Corporate Governance Code, once the Group has achieved
sufficient growth;
· the Corporate Governance Code recommends the submission of all
directors for re-election at annual intervals. One-third of Directors (or,
where their number is not divisible by three, the nearest number not exceeding
one-third) will be required to retire and seek re-elections on an annual
basis; and
· the Company may seek to transfer from a Standard Listing to either a
Premium Listing or other appropriate listing venue, based on sufficient
growth, subject to fulfilling the relevant eligibility criteria at the time.
If the Group is successful in obtaining a Premium Listing, further rules will
apply to the Company under the Listing Rules and Disclosure and Transparency
Rules and the Company will be obliged to comply with the Model Code and to
comply or explain any derogation from the UK Corporate Governance Code.
Auditors and disclosure of information
The directors confirm that:
· there is no relevant audit information of which the auditor is
unaware; and
· each Director has taken all the necessary steps he ought to have
taken as a Director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit
information and to establish that the auditor is aware of that information.
Directors' responsibility statement
The Directors are responsible for preparing the management report, annual
report and the non-statutory consolidated financial statements in accordance
with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial
Conduct Authority ("DTR") and with International Financial Reporting Standards
("IFRS") as adopted by the European Union.
International Accounting Standard 1 requires that consolidated financial
statements present fairly for each financial year the Group's consolidated
financial position, consolidated financial performance and consolidated cash
flows. This requires the faithful representation of transactions, other events
and conditions in accordance with the definitions and recognition criteria for
the assets, liabilities, income and expenses set out in the International
Accounting Standards Board's "Framework for the Preparation and Presentation
of Financial Statements".
GRAND FORTUNE HIGH GRADE LIMITED
DIRECTORS' CONSOLIDATED REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022
(CONTINUED)
In virtually all circumstances, a fair representation will be achieved by
compliance with all IFRS. Directors are also required to:
- make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and
prudent;
- state whether applicable 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 Group will continue in business;
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them
consistently;
- present information, including accounting policies, in a manner that
provides relevant, reliable, comparable, and understandable information; and
- 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 Group's
consolidated financial position and financial performance.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are
sufficient to show and explain the Group's transactions and disclose with
reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Group. They
are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Group and hence for
taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other
irregularities.
The maintenance and integrity of the Grand Fortune High Grade Limited website
is the responsibility of the Directors.
Legislation in the Cayman Islands governing the preparation and dissemination
of the accounts and the other information included in annual reports may
differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
GRAND FORTUNE HIGH GRADE LIMITED
DIRECTORS' CONSOLIDATED REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2022
(CONTINUED)
The directors confirm, to the best of their knowledge that:
· the consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with
the relevant financial reporting framework, give a true and fair view of the
consolidated assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the
Group;
· the consolidated financial statements include a fair review of the
development and performance of the business and the consolidated financial
position of the Group, together with a description of the principal risks and
uncertainties that it faces; and
· the annual report and consolidated financial statements, taken as a
whole, are fair, balanced, and understandable and provide the information
necessary for shareholders to assess the Group's performance, business model
and strategy.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
GRAND FORTUNE HIGH GRADE LIMITED
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Grand Fortune High Grade Limited
and its subsidiaries (the "Group") for the year ended 30 April 2022 which
comprise consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated
statement of financial position, consolidated statements of changes in equity,
consolidated cash flow statements 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 International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the
European Union.
In our opinion, the group financial statements:
· give a true and fair view of the state of the group's affairs as at
30 April 2022 and of its loss for the year then ended;
· have been properly prepared in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union;
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 Auditor's responsibilities for the
audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of
the group 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 as applied to listed entities, 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. Our evaluation of the directors'
assessment of the Group's ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis
of accounting included obtaining management's assessment of going concern,
including a cash flow forecast through to the end of October 2023. We produced
scenarios to stress test that forecast and to consider whether the Group has
the cash resources to continue for at least the next 12 months.
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 Group'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.
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
GRAND FORTUNE HIGH GRADE LIMITED
(CONTINUED)
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to
going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Overview of our audit approach
Materiality
In planning and performing our audit we applied the concept of materiality. An
item is considered material if it could reasonably be expected to change the
economic decisions of a user of the financial statements. We used the concept
of materiality to both focus our testing and to evaluate the impact of
misstatements identified.
Based on our professional judgement, we determined overall materiality for the
financial statements as a whole to be £35,000 (2021: £42,000), based on
based on approximately 2% of the total assets.
We use a different level of materiality ('performance materiality') to
determine the extent of our testing for the audit of the financial
statements. Performance materiality is set based on the audit materiality as
adjusted for the judgements made as to the entity risk and our evaluation of
the specific risk of each audit area having regard to the internal control
environment. We determined performance materiality to be £24,700 (2021:
£30,000).
Where considered appropriate performance materiality may be reduced to a lower
level, such as, for related party transactions and directors' remuneration.
We agreed with the board to report to it all identified errors in excess of
£1,700 (2021: £2,000). Errors below that threshold would also be reported to
it if, in our opinion as auditor, disclosure was required on qualitative
grounds.
Overview of the scope of our audit
The group is in the early stages of its development and is currently
administered from one central operating location, which is the Group's
registered office All audit work has been conducted remotely by the group
audit team.
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
GRAND FORTUNE HIGH GRADE LIMITED
(CONTINUED)
Key Audit Matters
In addition to the matter described in the Conclusion related to going concern
section, we have determined the matter described below to be the key audit
matter to be communicated in our report.
Key audit matter How our scope addressed the key audit matter
Disclosure of related party transactions We reviewed transactions for evidence of potential undisclosed related party
transactions and challenged management's disclosure on related party
The business is managed by a small number of individuals in different transactions. Where necessary we took representations from management to
locations increasing the risk that related party transactions are not confirm that transactions were not with related parties.
identified and disclosed.
Our audit procedures in relation to these matters were designed in the context
of our audit opinion as a whole. They were not designed to enable us to
express an opinion on these matters individually and we express no such
opinion.
Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the
annual report. The other information comprises the information included in the
annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor's 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 this gives rise to a
material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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.
Responsibilities of the directors for the financial statements
As explained more fully in the directors' responsibilities statement set out
on page 6, 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.
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
GRAND FORTUNE HIGH GRADE LIMITED
(CONTINUED)
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for
assessing the Group'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 Group or to
cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's 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 auditor's 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:
· As part of our audit planning process we assessed the different areas
of the financial statements, including disclosures, for the risk of material
misstatement. This included considering the risk of fraud where direct
enquiries were made of management and those charged with governance concerning
both whether they had any knowledge of actual or suspected fraud and their
assessment of the susceptibility of fraud. We considered the risk was greater
in areas that involve significant management estimate or judgement. Based on
this assessment we designed audit procedures to focus on the key areas of
estimate or judgement, including the carrying value of accruals.
· We have read board and committee minutes of meetings, as well as
regulatory announcements, as part of our risk assessment process to identify
events or conditions that could indicate an incentive or pressure to commit
fraud or provide an opportunity to commit fraud. As part of this process, we
have considered whether remuneration incentive schemes or performance targets
exist for the Directors.
· In addition to the risk of management override of controls, we have
considered the fraud risk related to any unusual transactions or unexpected
relationships, including assessing the risk of undisclosed related party
transactions. Our procedures to address this risk included target testing a
risk-based sample of journal transactions, both at the year end and throughout
the year.
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
GRAND FORTUNE HIGH GRADE LIMITED
(CONTINUED)
Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk
that some material misstatements of the financial statements may not be
detected, even though the audit is properly planned and performed in
accordance with the ISAs (UK). The potential effects of inherent limitations
are particularly significant in the case of misstatement resulting from fraud
because fraud may involve sophisticated and carefully organized schemes
designed to conceal it, including deliberate failure to record transactions,
collusion or intentional misrepresentations being made to us.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial
statements is available on the Financial Reporting Council's website at:
www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our
auditor's report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the Group's members, as a body, in accordance
with our agreed terms of engagement dated 16 June 2020. Our audit work has
been undertaken so that we might state to the Group's members those matters we
are required to state to them in an auditor's 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 Group and the Group's members as a
body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. General Information
Grand Fortune High Grade Limited is incorporated under the laws of the Cayman
Islands under the Companies Law. Grand Fortune High Grade Limited was
incorporated on 10 November 2015 as an exempted company. Grand Fortune High
Grade Limited's registered number is 305700 and its registered office is at
Willow House, Cricket Square, PO Box 709, Grand Cayman KY1-1107, Cayman
Islands. The principal place of business is Flat/Rm 1, 8/F, Metex House, No.
28 Fui Yiu Kok Street, Tsuen Wan, New Territories, Hong Kong.
The Group's objective is to take advantage of opportunities to establish a
financial training business.
This financial information has been prepared in accordance with IFRS as
adopted by the European Union ("EU"). The standards have been applied
consistently during both years presented.
2. Accounting Policies
Basis of preparation
The principal accounting policies adopted by the Group in the preparation of

The financial information has been presented in pound sterling, being the
functional currency of the Grand Fortune High Grade Limited.
The financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis and include the

Limited and Shen Zhen Shi Ji Fu Education Information Consulting Co. Ltd.
The financial information has been prepared in accordance with International

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
2. Accounting Policies (continued)
Standards and interpretations issued but not yet applied
A number of new standards and amendments to standards and interpretations have
been issued but are not yet effective and, in some cases, have not yet been
adopted by the European Union. The directors do not expect that the adoption
of these standards will have a material impact on the consolidated financial
statements of the Group in future periods.
Going concern
The Group is focused on the development of a financial training business in
China, and apart from a small amount of interest receivable, it currently has
no significant income stream. Until the training business has been adequately
developed and is generating significant revenue, it is therefore dependent on
its cash reserves to fund ongoing costs. At 30 April 2022, the Group's cash
position was £1,766,865.
After reviewing the Group's budget for the period ending 31 October 2023 and
its medium-term plans, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the
Group will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for
the foreseeable future. In making this assessment, the directors have
considered current and developing impact on the business as a result of the
COVID-19 virus. Whilst this has had an immediate impact on the Group's
operations and the Group's ability to offer financial training courses in
person, the Group is developing an online training platform for its offered
programs. The directors are aware that the implementation and success of the
online training platform remains one of the biggest tests for the Group, in
particular if the current situation with COVID-19 becomes prolonged and in
person training is not possible or limited.
The financial information does not include any adjustments that would result
if the Group were unable to continue as a going concern.
Taxation
The tax currently payable is based on the taxable profit for the year. Taxable
profit differs from net profit as reported in the income statement because it
excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other
periods and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible.
The Group's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have
been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
2. Accounting Policies (continued)
Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the consolidated
statement of financial position when the Group becomes a party to the
contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets
Under IFRS 9, financial assets are measured at amortised cost or fair value
through other comprehensive income ("FVOCI") depending on the business model
and contractual cash flow characteristics. The classification depends on the
basis on which assets are measured and if either criteria is not met, then the
financial assets are held at fair value through profit or loss ("FVPL").
The Group holds cash and cash equivalents at amortised cost.
As at the consolidated balance sheet date, the Group did not have any
financial assets measured at FVPL or FVOCI.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments
Classification as debt or equity
Financial liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Group are
classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered
into and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the
assets of the Group after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments
are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Financial liabilities
All financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost and are subsequently
measured at amortised cost, where applicable, using the effective interest
method, with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
2. Accounting Policies (continued)
Derecognition of financial liabilities
The Group derecognises financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group's
obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire.
Foreign currencies
Profit and loss account transactions denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into sterling and recorded at the rate of exchange ruling at the
date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in
foreign currencies are retranslated at the rate of exchange ruling at the
balance sheet date.
All differences are taken to the profit and loss account.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Group considers any cash on short-term deposits and other short-term
investments to be cash equivalents.
Leases/Rentals
The only leases the Group has entered into are short term leases. As permitted
by IFRS 16 the Group has taken advantage of the exemption not to apply the
requirements of IFRS 16 to short term leases and is recognising the expense in
profit and loss evenly over the lease contract. The total expense incurred on
short term leases is disclosed as rental expenses in note 4 to these financial
statements.
Segment Information
In the Directors' opinion, the Group has only one operating segment - the
development and operation of financial training courses in China. The
internal and external reporting is on a consolidated basis with transactions
between Group companies eliminated on consolidation. Therefore, the
financial information of the single segment is the same as set out in the
consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of
changes in equity and the consolidated statement of financial position and
cash flows.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
3. Critical accounting estimates and judgement
The preparation of the financial information in conformity with IFRS requires
the Directors to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of income, expenditure, assets, and liabilities. Estimates and
judgements are continually evaluated, including expectations of future events
to ensure these estimates remain reasonable.
The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience
and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements
about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent
from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. There
were no critical estimates during the year ended 30 April 2022.

14. Financial risk management
The Group uses a limited number of financial instruments, comprising cash and
amounts owing to Directors, which arise directly from operations. The Group
does not trade in financial instruments.
General objectives, policies and processes
The Directors have overall responsibility for the determination of the Group's
risk management objectives and policies. Further details regarding these
policies are set out below:
Currency risk
As the Group operates internationally, its exposure to foreign exchange risk
relates to transactions and balances that are denominated in currencies other
than £. The Directors manage the Group's exposure to currency risk by
operating foreign currency bank accounts, being GBP, HKD, RMB and USD. It is
the Directors' view that the size and complexity of the Group's trade does not
warrant financial hedging arrangements currently, although this view will be
regularly reviewed as the Group develops.
The table below illustrates the hypothetical sensitivity of the Group's
consolidated statement of financial position to a 10% increase and decrease in
the GBP/HKD, GBP/USD and GBP/RMB exchange rates at the year-end date. The
sensitivity rate of 10% represents the directors' assessment of a reasonably
possible change, based on historic volatility.

- HKD 10.8283), USD 1.25411 (2021 - USD 1.39492) and RMB 8.28885 (2021 -
9.02504).
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
14. Financial risk management (continued)
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counter party will not meet its obligations
under a contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group had cash and cash
equivalents of £1,766,865 as at 30 April 2022. The credit risk from its
liquid funds is limited as the counter parties are banks with high credit
ratings.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the Directors' management of working capital. It is
the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting its financial
obligations as they fall due.
The Directors' policy is to ensure that the Group will always have sufficient
cash to allow it to meet its liabilities when they become due. To achieve this
aim, the Directors seek to maintain a cash balance sufficient to meet expected
requirements (all amounts due within 30 days).
The Directors have prepared cash flow projections on a monthly basis through
to 31 October 2023. At the end of the year under review, these projections
indicated that the Group expected to have sufficient liquid resources to meet
its obligations under all reasonably expected circumstances.
15. Capital risk management
The Directors' objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group's
ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for
Shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal
capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. During the year, the Group
had been financed by equity. In the future, it is expected that the capital
structure of the Group will continue to be financed in this manner with equity
attributable to equity holders of the Group, comprising issued share capital
and reserves.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
16. Related party transactions
During the year ended 30 April 2020, Grand Fortune High Grade Limited entered
into an employment agreement with Derek Law. Derek Law is a related party by
virtue of being the brother of Kit Ling Law (a significant shareholder and
former member of the Board of Directors of Grand Fortune High Grade
Limited). Under the terms of the employment agreement, Derek Law was
employed on a continuous basis as an Executive Deputy Director of Grand
Fortune High Grade Limited effective 1 December 2019 and entitled to a monthly
salary of HKD 20,000 and a monthly housing allowance of HKD 5,000.
Additionally, at the same time as the resignation of Anthony Wonnacott (1
October 2021) from the board of directors of the Company, Grand Fortune High
Grade Limited entered into a consulting agreement with Wonnacott Consulting
Professional Corporation (an entity controlled by Anthony Wonnacott) pursuant
to which Mr. Wonnacott was engaged as a corporate advisor to the Company with
remuneration of £2,500 per month (total charged by Mr. Wonnacott of £17,500
during the year ended 30 April 2022). Mr. Wonnacott is a related party by
virtue of being a former director of the Company.
All other amounts owing to directors relate to directors' remuneration accrued
as at the year ended 30 April 2022, see note 9 and 12 for a summary.
17. Ultimate controlling party
