Taxing assets

Capital Gains Tax (CGT) is charged on the profit you make when you sell, exchange or gift personal assets. Yes, even gifting a personal asset can lead to a tax bill.

You’re entitled to an annual tax-free allowance, of course. But do note that this is now just £3,000 for individuals, having been cut by 75% over recent years.

This tax is also governed by a detailed framework of rules, conditions, rates, and reliefs covering a wide variety of situations. So it’s wise to seek professional tax advice before committing to any significant asset disposal. Doing so can help you plan effectively, limit your tax exposure and avoid any unpleasant surprises.
