GOLDLINK Insurance Plc
Veritas Kapital holds 1,268,064,351 (2023:1,268,314,351) ordinary shares representing 51.53% (2023:51.53%) holdings in Goldlink Insurance Plc as at 30 November 2025.
Goldlink Insurance Plc became associate company of Veritas Kapital in 2011 but was taken over by the regulatory authority -National Insurance Commission (NAICOM) for infraction of insurance regulations and its Board of Directors was dissolved in 2012.
Though Veritas Kapital holds majority shares in Goldlink Insurance Plc. (51.53%) the investment has been treated as an associate and accounted for using equity method at both the Company and Group level.
In arriving at the decision to treat the investment as an associate, the Board of Directors considered if Veritas Kapital has control over Goldlink Insurance Plc based on the requirements of IFRS 10. IFRS 10.5 states that an investor regardless of the nature of its involvement with an entity is required to determine whether it is a parent by assessing whether it controls the investee.
Specifically, IFRS 10 states that an investor controls an investee if and only if the investor has the following:
Power over the investee;
Exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
The ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor's returns.
Based on assessment carried out, Directors concluded that Veritas Kapital does not have the power over the investee because the relevant activities of Goldlink Insurance Plc are subject to direction of the NAICOM instituted Board of Directors. The Board of Directors report directly to NAICOM on all its activities and resolutions are subject to the NAICOM ( IFRS 10:B37).
