Taxation

Stellar Asset Management does not provide financial or taxation advice and you should always consult a financial expert or taxation specialist in order to fully understand the possible consequences of investment in a Stellar product or service. The current levels of taxation and tax reliefs may change in the future.

Investments in unquoted and AIM-quoted companies tend to carry a higher risk than investments in most securities listed on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange and may be more difficult to sell. The inheritance tax relief applies to holdings in qualifying unquoted and AIM-quoted companies if they have been held for more than two years at the time of death and is based on current tax rules and regulations. Money that is withdrawn from qualifying holdings, or that has not been invested in qualifying unquoted or AIM-quoted companies for at least two years, will not generally be exempt from UK inheritance tax. We will invest in companies that we reasonably believe to be qualifying investments based on our understanding of HMRC’s current interpretation of the rules and regulations, but we cannot guarantee this, nor can we guarantee that any changes in legislation will not have a retrospective effect. Please remember that tax rules and regulations are subject to change and depend on personal circumstances.
