Tax Efficient Investments

If you save or invest money, you'll generally have to pay tax on any interest or income you get, but there are some ways of investing that give you a more efficient, or even tax-free, return.

ISAs

Self-Select ISAs allows you to buy and sell shares but any growth and returns are free from any further income tax liability and capital gains tax.

The Bespoke Discretionary Service and the Value Investment Portfolio use ISAs to maximise the tax efficiency of the portfolios through generating tax-free income and sheltering gains from capital gains tax.

Junior ISAs

A JISA is a tax efficient savings and investments account that allows parents, other family members and friends to contribute save and invest an annual limit of £3,720 for a child. A Redmayne-Bentley JISA account will be made available from 1st November and will provide a long-term investment opportunity with a tax efficient lump sum at the start of their adult life.

SIPPs

A Self-Invested Personal Pension or SIPP allows you to take control over your pension and ultimately the funds you will have available in retirement. All contributions qualify for tax relief at your highest rate and the fund grows free of capital gains tax. Find out more about SIPPs »

Inheritance Tax Portfolio

The Inheritance Tax (IHT) Portfolio Service is designed to help limit the effect of inheritance tax without limiting access to and ownership of your capital. By taking advantage of Business Property Relief (BPR) on qualifying shares you can claim 100 per cent tax relief once the portfolio has been held for two years. Find out more »

Venture Capital Trusts

Venture Capital Trusts (VCT) offer income tax relief of 30 per cent when invested at subscription, subject to a maximum investment of £200,000, while minimums are usually around £3000 - £5000. Find out more »

Info Point

Capital Gains Tax (CGT) is payable on the sale or disposal of an asset. The CGT annual allowance for the 2012/2013 tax year is £10,600. Gains are treated as the 'top slice' of an individual's income and taxed at marginal rates; the rate is 18% up to the higher rate threshold and 28% on amounts above.

Our investment managers will always have regard to your tax situation when making investment decisions, although gains will be taken above your annual allowance when appropriate. Should you have any large gains from the sale of other assets or businesses and not wish to take any more from your portfolio then please advise your investment manager. Similarly, if you have any losses that can offset gains then please advise us so that the full picture can be taken into account.

  • Investments and income can fall as well as rise in value; therefore, your capital is always at risk.
  • Tax treatment depends on the specific circumstances of each individual and may be subject to change in the future.
