Business Relief reform – What you need to know

From 6 April 2026, major changes to Business Relief (BR) will take effect. Relief will be cut from 100% to 50% for business interests over £1 million and for shares in AIM-listed and other unlisted companies—regardless of value. Join our expert-led webinar as we explore practical steps to navigate the new BR landscape and answer key questions.

This will have a huge impact for business owners, trustees and wealthy individuals and in many cases, revising strategies for wealth succession is a must.  The relief is still valuable and maximising it is key, practically, how should you do that?  There are so many factors at play so rushing into doing something in isolation may not be the right course of action to take.

Join our expert-led webinar as we explore practical steps to navigate the new BR landscape and answer key questions, including:

  •  Are you sure relief is available and is your structure set up to maximise relief?
  • Is it time to share ownership of your business across your family and could you be trading an IHT liability for CGT?
  • Are you ready to give up some form of control? 
  • Is there an impact on your income stream?
  • What happens if you die within 7 years?  How is the IHT paid?
  • Is adding in a family trust as a shareholder still a good idea?
  • Trusts will need to pay more IHT than before – how is that funded?
  • Is your IHT and succession strategy for your non-core business interests still working for you?
