Advisory / Inheritance Tax Planning
Protect your wealth with expert planning strategies
It might surprise you to learn that a large proportion of your wealth could be subject to Inheritance Tax (IHT) when you die. This can include all of your assets, such as the family home, investments, cash and even heirlooms!
Inheritance tax planning
Your estate will be subject to IHT at up to 40% when you die, to the extent that it exceeds the individual nil-rate band. If your spouse dies before you, without fully utilising their nil-rate band, the unused amount can be carried forward to use when you die.
Your family home may provide you with an additional tax-free allowance, known as the Residence Nil-Rate Band. However, this relief can be subject to tapering, or you may not qualify at all.
Calculating your potential exposure to IHT is vital for any taxpayer likely to exceed the nil rate bands and in the vast majority of cases, most, if not all, of this tax burden can be mitigated through successful IHT planning.
Get in touch with us today to discuss how GLX can help to calculate and mitigate your IHT bill to ensure that as much of your estate as possible is passed on to those you want to receive it, rather than HMRC!
