INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
GE CAPITAL UK FUNDING UNLIMITED COMPANY
The company is ultimately a wholly owned subsidiary of GEC. In establishing the overall scope of the audit, we determined the type
of work that needed to be performed by component auditors for the purposes of this audit. We used the work of Deloitte member
firsm in the United States fo America, operating under our instrcutions, in relation to the testing of the Loans and Advances,
Derivative assets and liabilities and Debt securities issued. We had regular interaction with these component teams including virtual
meetings and review of certain working papers. This, together with the additional procedures performed by Ireland, gave us the
evidence we needed to form our opinion on the financial statements as a whole.
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the directors’ report and audited financial statements, other than the
financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the
directors’ report and audited financial statements.
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.
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 directors
As explained more fully in the statement of directors' responsibilities, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial
statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view and otherwise comply with the Companies Act 2014, 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 company’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 company 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 (Ireland) 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 IAASA’s website at:

forms part of our auditor’s report.
Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our
responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our
procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.
