Our research may contain forward-looking statements, projections, forecasts, or scenarios. These reflect analytical judgements based on information available at the time of writing. They are not guarantees of future outcomes. Actual results may differ materially from those projected.

6. Commissioned and evaluation work
Research, evaluation and appraisal work carried out under a client engagement is prepared for the purposes, and on the assumptions, agreed with that client, and is subject to the terms of the relevant engagement.
