CONSOLIDATED REPORTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARED 30 APRIL 2019
GRAND FORTUNE HIGH GRADE LIMITED
CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
FOR THE YEARED 30 APRIL 2019
I am pleased to present the consolidated reports and financial
statements for the year from 1 May 2018 to 30 April 2019. During
the year, the Group reported a loss of GBP518,387 (loss of
GBP1,295,565 for the period from 1 May 2017 to 30 April 2018) which
arose from professional fees, rent and wages in connection with the
ongoing operations of the Group (and the listing and general
administration expenses as well as a share-based payment charge for
warrants issued for the prior year period). As at the date of
signing this report the Group has approximately GBP2.75 Million of
cash balances.
Following its listing on the London Stock Exchange on 22 May
2017, the Group has been focused on the development, by organic
growth, 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 has 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.). Additionally, on 22 May 2018, the
Group announced that it had acquired the exclusive perpetual rights
to utilise and market all of the educational materials owned by
Global Academy of Investment and Wealth Management in Asia and
Europe. As the cost related to the acquisition of these educational
materials did not prove to generate future benefits, it was fully
impaired during the year.
Additionally, Grand Fortune High Grade Limited held its
shareholder meeting on 28 November 2018. All items proposed were
approved by 100% of the votes cast at the meeting. Following the
meeting, the Board of Directors was comprised of Kit Ling Law
(re-elected), Yan Wing Laurence Cheung (re-elected), Angus Irvine
(re-elected), Wong Lee Chun (re-elected) and Anthony Wonnacott
(re-elected). On 1 February 2019, the Group announced the
resignation of Yan Wing Laurence Cheung from the Board of Directors
and wishes to thank him for his services to the Group.
All of these efforts have resulted in the enrolment of students
into courses offered by the Group and the Group being pleased to
report revenue from these activities, albeit minimal, in these
consolidated reports and financial statements. 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.

HK") and GFHG HK's wholly owned subsidiary Shen Zhen Shi Ji Fu

Business review and management report
The loss on ordinary activities for the year ended 30 April 2019
was GBP518,387 (loss of GBP1,295,565 for the year ended 30 April
2018).
The Group had cash at bank and in hand of GBP2,855,928 at 30
April 2019. 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.
Events that have occurred since the end of the financial year
are detailed in note 17 to the accounts.
Dividends
The directors do not recommend the payment of a final dividend
for the year.

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 28 November 2018.
Share capital, Warrants and voting rights
On 17 May 2017, Grand Fortune High Grade Limited entered into
warrant agreements with each of Alice Lau, Vincent Poon, Wai Man
Hui and Cornhill Capital Limited conferring the right to subscribe
for 4,800,000 ordinary shares each (a total of 19,200,000 ordinary
shares). Each Warrant Agreement is in an identical form and confers
the right to subscriber for ordinary shares at GBP0.10. The
warrants were conditional on admission to the London Stock Exchange
(which was completed on 22 May 2017) and the warrants can be
exercised at any time until 22 May 2020.
On 22 May 2017, Grand Fortune High Grade Limited completed the
placing of 43,000,000 ordinary shares issued at a price of GBP0.10
per ordinary share for gross proceeds of GBP4,300,000. In
connection with the placing, the ordinary shares of Grand Fortune
High Grade Limited were admitted by the Financial Conduct Authority
(FC) to a Standard Listing on the Official List in accordance with
Chapter 14 of the Listing Rules and commenced trading on the London
Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities.
Going concern
The Group is focused on the development, by organic growth, of a
financial training business in China, and, apart from a small
amount of interest receivable and a small amount of revenue from
the offering of training courses, 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
2019, the Group's cash position was GBP2,855,928.
After reviewing the Group's budget for the period ending 31
October 2020 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.
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 2019, apart from a small amount of interest receivable, the
Group only generated a small amount of revenue - 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.
Corporate governance
As a company with a Standard Listing, the Group is not required
to comply with the provisions of the Corporate Governance Code.
Although, the Group does not comply with the UK Corporate
Governance Code, the Group intends to adopt 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 Corporate Governance Code insofar as is
appropriate. A description of these procedures is set out
below:
-- As the Group is a start-up it will 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, taking into account
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.
-- 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.
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".
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; work
carried out by the auditors does not involve the consideration of
these matters and, accordingly, the auditors accept no
responsibility for any changes that may have occurred in the
accounts since they were initially presented on the website.
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.
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.

INDEPENT 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 2019 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 financial statements:
-- give a true and fair view of the state of the group's affairs
as at 30 April 2019 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, 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
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in
relation to which ISAs (UK) require us to report to you when:
-- The directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting
in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate;
or
-- The directors have not disclosed in the financial statements
any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant
doubt about the Group's ability to continue to adopt the going
concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months
from the date when the financial statements are authorised for
issue.
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 GBP55,000
(FY18 GBP67,000), 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.
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 GBP2,850 (2018: GBP3,400). 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. Our audit work was conducted on
records held at that location.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional
judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial
statements of the current period and include the most significant
assessed risks of material misstatement (whether or not due to
fraud) that we identified. These matters included those which had
the greatest effect on: the overall audit strategy, the allocation
of resources in the audit; and directing the efforts of the
engagement team. These matters were addressed in the context of our
audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our
opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these
matters.
This is not a complete list of all risks identified by our
audit.

=================================== ====================================================================
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. 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 there is a
material misstatement in the financial statements or a material
misstatement of the other information. 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 pages 6 and 7, 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.
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.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of
the financial statements is located 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. 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.

recognition for revenue) and IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (in
respect of the impact of the expected loss model on the impairment
of receivables) have been applied.
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, specifically being the adoption of IFRS 16, 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, by organic growth, of a
financial training business in China, and apart from a small amount
of interest receivable and a small amount of revenue from the
offering of training courses, 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
2019, the Group's cash position was GBP2,855,928.
After reviewing the Group's budget for the period ending 31
October 2020 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.
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.
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 classified and measured at
fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in profit and
loss as they arise ("FVPL"), unless restrictive criteria are met
for classifying and measuring the asset at either amortised cost or
fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVOCI"). The
classification depends on the basis on which assets are
measured.
The Group has classified cash and cash equivalents as FVPL.
As at the consolidated balance sheet date, the Group did not
have any financial assets measured at amortised cost 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.
Other financial liabilities
The Director's loan is initially measured at amortised cost, net
of transaction costs, and is subsequently measured at amortised
cost, where applicable, using the effective interest method, with
interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis.
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.
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.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the
consideration to which the Group expected to be entitled in
exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer.
Rendering of services
Revenue is recognised on the provision of the financial training
course in China.
Interest
Interest revenue is recognised as interest is received.
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.
The Group's nature of operations is to develop and run financial
training courses in China. The Group acquired the rights to
training materials during the year. The cost related to this
acquisition did not meet the criteria for capitalization. Hence, it
was fully impaired during the year.

Audit fees of GBP13,000 (2018: GBP15,600) were recognised during
the year. The cost related to the acquisition of training materials
did not prove to be generating future benefits. Hence, it was fully
impaired during the year.
5. Taxation
Grand Fortune High Grade Limited is incorporated in the Cayman
Islands. The operations of Grand Fortune High Grade Limited are,
with the exception of regulatory filings, outside of the Cayman
Islands. Accordingly, the costs and revenues of Grand Fortune High
Grade Limited are subject to Cayman Islands taxation legislation
where the prevailing taxation rate is 0%.
As GFHG HK is incorporated in Hong Kong it is subject to Hong
Kong taxation legislation and as Ji Fu Education is incorporated in
China it is subject to China taxation legislation. Any revenue
earned by GFHG HK would be subject to Hong Kong taxation and any
revenue earned by Ji Fu Education would be subject to China
taxation. It is the intention of the Group to attempt to offset any
revenue against historic costs incurred where such revenue is
earned and a taxation reduction on such future revenue may be
available. As the Group's expenses exceeded its revenue for the
year ended 30 April 2019, it has not accrued any tax amount
payable.
6. Loss per Ordinary Share
The calculation for earnings per Ordinary Share (basic and
diluted) for the relevant year is based on the profit after income
tax attributable to equity holder is as follows:
Year Ended Year Ended
30 April 2019 30 April 2018

Earnings per share (pence) (0.32) (0.82)
Potential dilutive warrants were issued during the year ended 30
April 2018 but have not been included because the Group was loss
making (and thus it would have been antidilutive for the year ended
30 April 2018).

Stock Exchange (which was completed on 22 May 2017) and can be
exercised at any time until 22 May 2020.

the Black-Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions:
expected volatility of 50%, risk-free interest rate of 0.1799% and
an expected life of 3 years. Calculation of volatility involves
significant judgement by the Directors. Volatility number was
estimated based on the range of 36-month end volatilities of the
main market index

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 GBP. 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 statement of comprehensive income to a 10% increase and
decrease in the GBP/HKD and GBP/USD exchange rates at the year-end
date, assuming all other variables remain unchanged. The
sensitivity rate of 10% represents the directors' assessment of a
reasonably possible change, based on historic volatility. Positive
figures represent an increase in income.

Period end exchange rates applied in the above analysis are HKD
10.14 (2018-HKD 10.81), USD 1.29 (2018-USD 1.38) and RMB 8.70 (2018
- no expenses in RMB).
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 GBP2,855,928 as at 30 April
2019. The credit risk from its liquid funds is limited as the
counter parties are banks with high credit ratings which have not
experienced any losses in such accounts.
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.
The Directors have prepared cash flow projections on a monthly
basis through to 31 October 2020. 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 and Directors' loans. In the future, the capital
structure of the Group is expected to consist of equity
attributable to equity holders of the Group, comprising issued
share capital and reserves.
16. Acquired rights
The following amounts relating to the costs incurred in the
acquisition of rights to use training materials (as well as the
amortisation of those costs) are included in the consolidated
statement of comprehensive income (included in Administrative
Expenses - see Note 4) and in the consolidated statement of
financial position:

Cost of Rights to Acquired 116,299 -

--------------- ----------------------
Amortisation of Acquired 116,299 -
Rights
--------------- ----------------------
Closing Balance - -
--------------- ----------------------
The Group classifies the cost to acquire the rights to use
acquired materials as a capitalised asset (as the asset was
acquired with the intention of current and future use) and that
cost is amortised over the useful life of the asset. During the
year ended 30 April 2019, the Group acquired the exclusive
perpetual rights to utilise and market all of the educational
materials owned by Global Academy of Investment and Wealth
Management in Asia and Europe. As the cost related to the
acquisition of these educational materials did not prove to
generate future benefits, it was fully amortised during the
year.
17. Subsequent events
None
18. Related party transactions
Kit Ling Law is a related party by virtue of her being Chairman
and shareholder of Grand Fortune High Grade Limited. There was no
amount outstanding as of 30 April 2019, however the maximum amount
owing to Kit Ling Law during the year ended 30 April 2018 was
GBP121,402, with the entire amount having been repaid during the
year ended 30 April 2018 (with no amount outstanding as of 30 April
2018).
All other amounts owing to directors relate to directors'
remuneration accrued between April 2016 and the year ended 30 April
2019, see note 9 and 12 for a summary.
19. Ultimate controlling party
As at 30 April 2019, Grand Fortune High Grade Limited did not
have any one identifiable controlling party.
