About this event

    Who is this aimed at?

    This topical webinar is aimed at those who would like an awareness of family investment companies (FICs) in order to able to advise or talk to their clients about such matters.

    Introduction

    The family investment company is not a new concept, but we have seen over the past few years an increase in interest in a type of investment vehicle which can be used by the investors to save tax but also benefit from investment income during their lifetime and then be able to pass on the wealth they have created to future generations as efficiently as possible.

    What is covered in this webinar?

    1. Why might somebody want to set up a Family Investment Company.
    2. How a family investment company is usually structured.
    3. The benefits of using a FIC.
    4. The pitfalls and difficulties you might face setting up a FIC.
    5. How a FIC can be beneficial from an IHT perspective.
    6. Why a FIC might not be the right planning structure for you.

    The webinar is intended as a high level introduction only, as we will not have time to go into lots of detail. Clearly, if you do require more information on this topic at any point, please do contact us.

    Organized by

    ETC Tax is a specialist tax advisory practice, based in Cheshire, but with offices in London and Birmingham and operating nationally. Our team of 20 is made up of highly experienced tax advisers, many of whom previously practiced at big 4 or top 10 accountancy firms. However, as a small family run business we feel that we are better suited to understanding and meeting the needs of our entrepreneurial and small business owner clients.

    The team cover the full spectrum of tax advice, from SDLT, to inheritance tax, to VAT, to corporate and business tax. There is pretty much nothing in tax we have not come across or would not be able to assist with!

    Whilst we work directly with individuals and companies, a large part of our business consists of supporting other professional advisers, particularly accountants and lawyers, with their specialist tax needs. Our Tax Partner Pro service is an integral part of this service, although we are happy to work in whatever way best suits you.

    We are flexible, agile and honest in the way we do business. Most of the work we do is on a fixed fee basis, which helps our clients understand what they are committing to. We look forward to working with you!
