"All individual risk decisions are taken on a company-by-company basis and are not just based on the latest set of accounts we go above and beyond that and make hundreds of visits to companies every year so we know whats going on in the marketplace.
"Even in badly performing sectors there are companies performing well, with margins that are above average," he added. "We believe we have the best database of information, but obviously we cant make decisions if no information is available."
