ReAssure published full year 2019 annual report and accounts

ReAssure Group plc ("ReAssure") announces that it has today published its Annual Report & Accounts 2019 (or "Annual Financial Report"). The Annual Financial Report is now available on our website at www.reassuregroupplc.co.uk .

In accordance with paragraph 9.6.1 of the FCA Listing Rules, a copy of the Annual Financial Report has been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM .

Statement of Directors' responsibilities

The Directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulation.

Company law requires the Directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the Directors have prepared the group and company financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS's") as adopted by the European Union. Under company law the Directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the group and company and of the profit or loss of the group and company for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the Directors are required to:

   --    select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

-- state whether applicable IFRS's as adopted by the European Union have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

   --    make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and

-- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the group and company will continue in business.

The Directors are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the group and company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The Directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the group and company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the group and company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006.

The Directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the Group's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

In the case of each Director in office at the date the Directors' Report is approved:

-- so far as the Director is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the group and company's auditors are unaware; and

-- they have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as a Director in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the group and company's auditors are aware of that information.
