The gift of money
Wise ways to invest for children at Christmas, government action on the 'loan charge' and changes to how you check if a financial adviser is registered.
The Government has accepted all but one of the recommendations made by Sir Amyas Morse in his review of the controversial 'loan charge'. This means that 11,000 people will be let off paying money to HMRC. They had signed up to schemes that paid part of their salary as a loan. Promoters of the scheme had told them that meant they were not liable to income tax but had ended up receiving bills for thousands of pounds retrospectively.
Financial advisers are not happy with changes the regulator has made to how you check if a financial adviser is registered.
And the best way to gift money to children at Christmas.
