Tax planning considerations following Labour’s first Budget

To help you prepare for the upcoming period and ensure good client outcomes, Fidelity’s Paul Richards, Paul Squirrell and Jon Hale discuss all the implications for retirement and tax planning. The panel reflects on what has changed or is about to change and, importantly, what has stayed the same, in areas such as pensions, ISAs and capital gains tax in this 45-minute video. They also consider the Chancellor’s proposals for inheritance tax and pensions and what these potentially mean for estate planning. Finally, they touch upon the most-common tasks required for tax year end and run through how to quickly identify and practically manage any required actions on our platform.
