Inheritance Tax & Estate Planning
Benjamin Franklin famously stated “in this world nothing is certain but death and taxes”. When it comes to inheritance tax, the two things collide.
However, there are ways to reduce the amount of inheritance tax payable which we can help you with.
Some of the most common ways of reducing or even eliminating inheritance tax completely are:
- Writing a will and arranging a power of attorney
- Making use of gifting allowances
- Provision of Trusts
- Arranging life cover insurance in trust to pay the tax
- Specialist investments designed to take advantage of certain inheritance tax planning allowances
