Minimising your tax

As you build your wealth, it’s understandable you want to take measures to protect it for yourself and future generations. We work with you to manage your wealth efficiently, using proven tax minimisation strategies to help you meet your obligations while avoiding unnecessary costs.

Strategies to lower your tax bill

Tax planning is an important part of financial planning. Many people miss out on a range of tax breaks, allowances and deductions as they’re simply unaware of them or don’t know how to minimise tax. This creates an extra burden and erodes your wealth over time.

We’ll structure your finances so they’re working as tax-efficiently as possible. By using tax strategies for high income earners, not only could you ease the tax burden and keep more of your hard-earned money, you could also enhance the potential return from your investments.

Common questions on minimising tax

You can reduce your tax bill by making the most of tax-efficient options like ISAs, pensions, or Venture Capital Trusts (VCTs). For instance, if you’re a higher-rate taxpayer, you can receive up to 40% tax relief on your pension contributions. Our Wealth Planners can help you get clarity on which tax minimisation strategies will work best for you.

Our Wealth Planners are committed to ensuring you pay the appropriate amount of income tax - maximising your pension contributions and charitable donations, while restructuring your income streams to make the most of your tax-free allowances. All these measures and more can make a big difference to your tax bill.

High earners can face as much as 45% in tax. If you want to safeguard your money, it’s important to understand how to reduce the tax liability for high income earners. Being strategic with your pensions, investments and gifting can all help you minimise how much of your wealth is exposed to inheritance, capital gains, or income tax.

Important information

Investment involves risk. The value of investments and the income from them can go down as well as up and you may not get back the amount originally invested. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

The tax treatment of all investments depends upon individual circumstances and the levels and basis of taxation may change in the future. Investors should discuss their financial arrangements with their own tax adviser before investing.

The information provided is not to be treated as specific advice. It has no regard for the specific investment objectives, financial situation or needs of any specific person or entity.
