What this business does
Primary activity: Non-life insurance
Sector: Financial & insurance
Investor take
Pursue
Active trading company. Family succession underway — not a classic acquisition target.

Opportunity 75/100 (strong), bankability 80/100. Same-surname younger director in place — likely family handover, not open to sale. Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Most likely exit: strategic trade sale (65/100).

🏦

Refinance opportunity

1 live charge · oldest 0.5y

50/100
clean up first

Refinance viable after a tidy-up — address the highlighted items first.

  • · Newest facility, 0.5 years old — likely still in initial term.
  • · Single lender — cleanest path to refinance.
  • · Legal-friction score 23/100 — clean.

Data confidence

Overall: medium (75/100)

Adequate coverage. AI outputs are reliable for the sections scored high; verify the rest in diligence.

Owner dependency

66/100
High — earn-out structure required

Material founder dependency. Consider a 2-3 year earn-out and build in a handover plan before completion.

FACTORS
  • +Two-director setup: Only two active directors — typical of owner-managed SMEs but limits succession.
  • +Family involvement: Multiple officers share a surname — likely family business, which concentrates governance.

Red flags

clean
No red flags detected from available public data. (This is not a clean bill of health — detailed accounts review still recommended.)
