In the 2011 Budget, the Government introduced a lower rate of inheritance tax for people who leave a charitable legacy of 10% or more of their estate. The reduced rate will be 36% rather than the normal rate of 40%. It is expected to become law in the Finance Bill 2012 and will apply to deaths on or after 6th April 2012.

This webinar will discuss the best way to take advantage of this and other available reliefs to minimise inheritance tax.

This webinar will cover:

·      Agricultural and Business Property Reliefs update
·      Lifetime gifts
·      Charitable gifts, including new rules on 10% charitable legacies and IHT reduction and gifts of works of art
