We’ve seen a lot of change in the last 12 months with a new government delivering their first Budget where clarity was given on announcements previously made. As well as new ones which will affect your clients now and in future tax years.
With the Treasury’s tax receipts due to increase further over the coming years due to a combination of frozen personal tax allowances, nil rate bands and rates, changes to the capital gains tax exemption, dividend allowances and rising average earnings, more people than ever are paying tax and at higher rates.
When this is combined with the announcements around changes to non-domiciled individual's taxation and the inclusion of pensions within the IHT framework from 2027, advice has never been more important. Now is an ideal opportunity to review your clients' holistic financial plans and ensure they’re invested in the most tax efficient way for their personal circumstances.
