Holland Bendelow responds to budget changes

Holland Bendelow welcomes the announcement in the recent budget that Capital Gains Tax Entrepreneurs’ Relief will be extended to external investors in unlisted trading companies. We believe that this is a positive move by the Government to encourage investment in smaller companies listed on AIM and ISDX stock markets.

Investors who choose to invest in smaller and growing companies take on a degree of risk when supporting thee companies and we believe that additional taxation reform should further encourage wider share ownership.
