<strong>Travelex</strong> <strong>Holdings</strong> <strong>Limited</strong><br />

Directors’ <strong>report</strong> continued<br />

for the year ended 31 December 2001<br />

Post-balance sheet events<br />

To the best of the directors’ knowledge, there have been no material post-balance sheet events affecting these <strong>financial</strong><br />

statements.<br />

Directors’ responsibilities<br />

Company law requires the directors to prepare <strong>financial</strong> statements for each <strong>financial</strong> year which give a true and fair view of the<br />

state of affairs of the Company and of the profit or loss of the Company for that year. In preparing those <strong>financial</strong> statements,<br />

the directors are required to:<br />

• select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;<br />

• make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;<br />

• state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed<br />

and explained in the <strong>financial</strong> statements; and<br />

• prepare the <strong>financial</strong> statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company<br />

will continue in business.<br />

The directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the<br />

<strong>financial</strong> position of the Company and to enable them to ensure that the <strong>financial</strong> statements comply with the Companies Act<br />

1985. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the<br />

prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.<br />

Auditors<br />

PricewaterhouseCoopers have informed the Group of their willingness to continue in office as auditors. In accordance with<br />

Section 385 of the Companies Act 1985, a resolution proposing their re-election as auditors will be submitted to the <strong>Annual</strong><br />

General Meeting.<br />

By order of the Board<br />
