We also provide those charged with governance with a statement confirming that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to have a bearing on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied. From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated and separate financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless any law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements Mauritian Companies Act 2001 The Mauritian Companies Act 2001 requires that in carrying out our audit we consider and report on the following matters. We confirm that: • We have no relationship with, or interests in, the Company and its subsidiaries, other than in our capacity as auditor and dealings in the ordinary course of business. • We have obtained all information and explanations required. • In our opinion, proper accounting records have been kept by the Company as far as it appears from our examination of those records. Mauritian Financial Reporting Act 2004 Our responsibility under the Mauritian Financial Reporting Act 2004 is to report on the compliance with the Code of Corporate Governance (“Code”) disclosed in the Annual Report and assess the explanations given for non-compliance with any requirement of the Code. From our assessment of the disclosures made on corporate governance in the Annual Report, the Company has, pursuant to section 75 of the Mauritian Financial Reporting Act 2004, complied with the requirements of the Code. National Payment Systems Act 2018 • In our opinion, the consolidated and separate financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year and are complete, fair and properly drawn up, and comply with the provisions of the National Payment Systems Act 2018 and the regulations and guidelines of the Bank of Mauritius; and • The explanations or information called for or given to us by the officers or agents of the payment service provider were satisfactory. Other Matter This report is made solely to the Company’s shareholders, as a body, in accordance with Section 205 of the Mauritian Companies Act 2001. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company’s shareholders 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 Company and the Company’s shareholders as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
