Following the recently announced changes to the taxation of long term UK tax resident non-domiciled individuals (RNDs), Edwin Coe’s Tax Services team will be hosting a seminar focusing on excluded property trust (EPT) structuring. It is widely expected that EPTs will be a vital tool for RNDs in managing their exposure to UK taxes following the changes due to take effect from April 2017 onward.

The seminar will focus on the following issues:

  1. Post April 2017 – the changing landscape for RNDs
  2. What now – how do you structure non-UK assets in advance of the changes?
  3. To loan or not to loan?
  4. Transfer of Assets Abroad (TAA) – changing the taxation of non-UK trusts
  5. Existing EPTs
  6. The confusing issue of residential property – uncertainty around existing EPTs holding UK situated residential property via an SPV.

The event is targeted at those who advise RND clients in relation to either their tax affairs or wealth.
