If you are considering releasing the built up capital in your company, you need to act soon, there are strong rumours emanating from Downing Street that the much fettered Entrepreneurs Relief, a 10% tax rate on capital gains will be abolished in the coming budget on March 11th.
Boris Johnson speaking to a meeting of female entrepreneurs said the rate [ER] was helping people who were already ‘staggeringly rich’ to become even richer, the Times reported.
This move seems ludicrous given the Brexit situation and the fact the country will be in desperate need of entrepreneurs and companies who are risk seeking, but these are the noises we are hearing from the Treasury office and Downing Street.
In its 2019 election manifesto the Conservative party pledged to review the rate, which in 2018 was worth an estimated £2.4 billion to company founders.
Johnson again added: ‘I have to tell you the Treasury is fulminating against it because there are some people who are staggeringly rich who are using that relief to make themselves even more staggeringly rich.’
