There are many different taxes that may affect every UK taxpayer and appropriate tax planning can have as much of an impact on wealth creation and preservation as investment returns. Lowes advice focuses on balancing the impact of Income Tax, Capital Gains Tax and Inheritance Tax with a view to exposing to the lesser of the three evils, if any.

Numerous factors will affect the amount of tax an individual pays and, depending on circumstances; there are many legitimate opportunities to reduce it. A key approach to reduce your tax liability is to ensure that your investments are held within the right investment vehicles. Tax-efficient planning involves taking account of all your assets, income and capital needs and potential tax liabilities with a view to reducing your overall tax burden.

Tax planning is part of a holistic financial planning process, whilst it may not yield immediate results, can over the long-term make a significant difference to your financial wellbeing and that of future generations of your family.
