Tax is one of the most certain things in life. Every aspect of your wealth is at some point subject to tax. The difference that careful planning can make, regardless of your level of tax exposure, can be staggering. Chester Financial Associates' experience of complete wealth management and understanding of tax systems and key planning points means we are in an ideal position to provide income tax, capital gains tax and inheritance tax advice.
Income tax is levied on income from salaried earnings, self-employed profits, bank interest and dividends to name but a few. We can advise on tax efficient strategies that can reduce or mitigate your liability.
CGT is payable on the profit arising from the disposal of assets such as investment property, stocks and shares and works of art (where the gain exceeds your annual CGT allowance). The excess profit is taxed at a flat rate of 18%. We can help you make use of the various reliefs available to reduce the tax burden. This can be a complex area and advice is essential.
With careful strategic planning, IHT advice can reduce or even eliminate an IHT liability and ensure that your estate is dealt with in the most effective way, according to your wishes and without delay.
Tax and Inheritance Tax planning is not regulated by the Financial Services Authority. The levels, bases and reliefs of taxation are subject to change.
