As Labour warn of a “painful” budget and a “broken” economy, the wealthy are leaving the UK or making plans to relocate to lower tax countries.

The Swiss bank, UBS, predicts it its latest Global Wealth Report that 500,000 millionaires will leave the UK by 2028, a 17% fall.

The FT said the UK will lose the most millionaires among the countries covered by UBS due to a combination of threatened ‘non-dom’ taxation, higher taxes and Russian sanctions, which has also seen billions flow out of the country.

UBS’s report estimates that $83.5tn of wealth would be transferred within the next 20 to 25 years.

This puts in doubt London's position as a haven for the global elite, currently a haven for the third highest number of dollar millionaires after the US and China.

At the same time, low growth and high taxes and regulation is moving global investment to countries where the see more opportunity in Asia, North and South America and Africa, according to the media tycoon Sir Martin Sorrell.

Taiwan has seen the highest growth of millionaires largely due to high tech growth businesses in the microchip sector.

Prime Minister Sir Kier Starmer presented the Renters Rights Bill to Parliament on Wednesday during PM Questions.

Watch video version - https://youtu.be/iqXll_itlNA

The Bill appears to be a rebrand of the Conservatives Renters Reform Bill which failed to become law before Rishi Sunak’s disastrous snap election.

I would urge you to read to Bill or at least the ‘Guide’ published here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/guide-to-the-renters-rights-bill/82ffc7fb-64b0-4af5-a72e-c24701a5f12a

Many landlords are retiring, considering their options or selling up after years of landlord bashing, red tape and higher taxes under Section 24.

Less new landlords are entering the market in such great numbers due to higher mortgage rates, stricter lending criteria and lower yields on but-to-let properties as prices have risen much faster than rents.

The Renters' Rights Bill 2024 signals a major shift in the dynamics of the private rental market. While these changes aim to protect tenants and ensure fair practices, buy-to-let landlords will need to adapt to new regulations and potentially alter their investment strategies. Smaller landlords could be pushed out by corporates and hedge funds looking to build or buy thousands of properties for rental.

Prime Minister Sir Kier Starmer and Chancellor Rachel Reeves say “thing will get worse”, and refuse to rule out a “painful” October Budget.

Concerns over potential tax hikes, as the Labour Party hints at plans to raise Inheritance Tax (IHT), Capital Gains Tax (CGT), and even introduce a wealth tax, are already causing an exodus of the rich.

The prospect of higher taxes under a Labour government is causing unease among property owners and investors alike.

Inheritance Tax is a particular area of concern, as Labour has suggested that the current threshold could be lowered, increasing the tax burden on estates. Currently, IHT is levied at 40% on estates worth over £325,000, but this could change, leading to more families being caught in the tax net.

Capital Gains Tax is also on Labour’s radar, with proposals to align CGT rates more closely with income tax rates. This could see higher earners paying significantly more on profits from property sales, stocks, and other investments.

Additionally, Labour’s discussions around a potential wealth tax are causing further anxiety. Such a tax would target the richest individuals, potentially impacting those with significant property holdings, investments, and savings.

As the political landscape evolves, investors and property owners are advised to stay informed and consider their options carefully. Whether you're thinking of selling, buying, or holding onto your assets, understanding how these potential tax changes could affect you is crucial.

Prime Minister Kier Starmer says “thing will get worse”, warning of a “painful” October Budget.

The UK property market is showing signs of resilience with a 14% increase in new property listings compared to last year. However, the optimism is being tempered by concerns over potential tax hikes as the Labour Party hints at plans to raise Inheritance Tax (IHT), Capital Gains Tax (CGT), and even introduce a wealth tax.

The surge in property listings can be attributed to homeowners looking to capitalize on the current market conditions before any potential tax changes come into effect. With interest rates remaining relatively low and demand for housing still strong, many are taking the opportunity to sell. However, the prospect of higher taxes under a potential Labour government is causing unease among property owners and investors alike.

Inheritance Tax is a particular area of concern, as Labour has suggested that the current threshold could be lowered, increasing the tax burden on estates. Currently, IHT is levied at 40% on estates worth over £325,000, but this could change, leading to more families being caught in the tax net.

In the UK, inheritance tax can take a significant portion of your estate, leaving less for your loved ones. However, with careful planning through wills and trusts, you can mitigate this burden.

Creating a properly drafted will ensures your assets are distributed according to your wishes, potentially avoiding intestacy rules that might increase your tax liability. Including trusts in your estate planning is a powerful tool to protect your wealth. Trusts can help reduce inheritance tax by transferring assets out of your estate, placing them in the hands of trusted individuals for your beneficiaries.

Key strategies include the Nil-Rate Band Discretionary Trust, which allows you to pass on up to £325,000 tax-free, and gifting assets during your lifetime, which can also reduce the value of your estate if you survive for seven years after the gift.

It's essential to review and update your will regularly to reflect changes in your circumstances and tax laws. Proper estate planning with wills and trusts not only safeguards your legacy but also ensures your loved ones benefit from the maximum inheritance with minimal tax impact.

How to Protect Your Pension Fund from a Stock Market Crash

Worried about the impact of a stock market crash on your pension fund? You're not alone. Market volatility can significantly affect your retirement savings, but there are strategies you can implement to safeguard your investments. Watch video https://youtu.be/e2iiYBYCUOw?si=enFe6LD0M8jt3hQG

1. Diversify Your Portfolio: One of the best ways to protect your pension fund is through diversification. By spreading your investments across different asset classes—such as bonds, real estate, and cash—you reduce the risk of a market downturn affecting your entire portfolio. Diversification ensures that even if one asset class takes a hit, others may remain stable or even gain value.
2. Regularly Rebalance Your Portfolio: Market conditions change over time, so it's crucial to regularly review and rebalance your portfolio. This involves adjusting your asset allocation to maintain your desired level of risk. Rebalancing helps you lock in gains from outperforming assets and reinvest them into underperforming ones, maintaining a balanced risk exposure.
3. Consider Safe Haven Assets: Investing in safe haven assets like gold, government bonds, or cash equivalents can provide stability during market crashes. These assets tend to hold their value or even appreciate when stock markets decline, offering protection for your pension fund.
4. Stay Informed and Seek Professional Advice: Keeping up with market trends and seeking advice from a financial advisor can help you make informed decisions. A professional can guide you on how to adjust your pension investments to minimize risks during turbulent times.
