• Incorporation or dis-incorporation
• Extraction of income: dividends or salary or a combination of the two
• Employee trusts and share options
• VAT and Stamp Duty planning
• Succession planning: Capital Gains Tax and Inheritance Tax
Whether such assets are in a limited company or privately owned, a substantial capital growth tax liability will arise when sold. Even if there is no intention to sell, Inheritance Tax at 40% on the value of the asset looms large.
