Family Investment Companies in Tax and Estate Planning

In person • 27th Jul 2022 - 12:00am - 12:00am

The concept of Family Investment Companies (FICs) is not a new one, but it has developed significantly in recent years to become a popular alternative to trusts in providing income tax and estate planning for families.

In a similar way to a trust, an FIC can provide for the separation of ownership and management of assets, so allowing parents and grandparents to control how monies are invested and determine how much – if any – is made available to shareholders.

The webinar in partnership with the ICAEW will consider principally how a typical FIC is structured and the tax benefits and traps, with the help of case studies to bring the talk to life.

Key topics:

  • What is a family investment company?
  • Tax benefits and traps
  • Structuring share capital
  • How to manage control and asset protection
