Bedlam's balance sheet

In the management of our balance sheet we have always been excessively prudent, even at a short-term 'cost' to our shareholders. The Financial Services Authority has various 'safety' criteria, one of which is that fund management companies should have a minimum of thirteen weeks expenditure in near cash in the balance sheet. We have always taken the view this is too low, especially in downturns when significant outflows or other unforeseen events can create immediate haemorrhaging of the balance sheet.

Hence Bedlam's balance sheet has always been excessively over-capitalised by conventional criteria.

Balance sheet

Balance sheet (14 Kb)

The company's balance sheet is strong; probably more so than the great majority of our competitors, including the most blue-chip household names. Our ratio of cash in the bank relative to annual expenditure is one of the very best, and we have no debt. For all investors, the strength and transparency of balance sheets will increasingly matter.

Note to Bedlam Shareholders . Previously you have been able to view both the balance sheet and the Profit & Loss account on a monthly basis in all their full glory. Now that the website is open to all, such excessive detail can lead to us being bogged down with trivial questions from non-shareholders. Should you wish to receive either the balance sheet or the profit and loss account in full up to the most recent month, please do not hesitate to ask.
