The Guernsey Financial Services Commission issues guidance allowing Category 5 Captive (Re)Insurers and Protected Cell Companies to request a derogation from additional FRS 103 disclosure requirements. Eligible licensees must apply under section 35(6) of the Insurance Law, elect for audit exemption under the Companies Law, and agree to a licence condition preserving directors' reporting responsibilities. The Commission will amend the audit opinion basis from 'true and fair' to 'properly prepared' to reflect the exclusion of these specific disclosures.
