Services for Businesses

The following is a Case Study of how we helped a business owner couple retire early with the maximum pension available and miminal tax liabilities.

Background
- Mr & Mrs Blair
- Married with 4 Children
- Small Business Owners
- Assets: Home - £300K; Other Property - £800K; Business - £1.3M; Pension Funds - £300K
- Available funds: Cash - £1.6M; Investments - £500K; Self Emp Income - £500K pa; Investment Income - £80K pa

The Challenges
- Early Retirement: Mr & Mrs Blair recognised they had inadequate pension funds
- Income Tax: they were concerned by the level of income tax they were paying
- Inheritance Tax Liability: poorly structured investments were both clients to die
- Capital Gains Tax: failure to take advantage of annual allowances

What We Did
- Sold the Unit trust Portfolio of £260K over two separate tax years.
- Invested the £260K proceeds equally between the two existing personal pensions.
- Set up Discretionary Trusts for the personal pensions.
- Reinvested £1.2M cash in Offshore Investment Bond

The Results
- Increased combined value of pension funds from £300K to £625K
- Reduced Income Tax bill by £110K
- Reduced Inheritance Tax Liability by £250K
- Saved approximately £8K Capital Gains Tax
- Client now controls if and when to pay Income Tax on Offshore Bond gains
