Capital Allowances - A Bitesized Guide to Avoiding the Pitfalls

Introduction

The Finance Act 2023 has introduced some key changes to the capital allowances regime and this webinar will explore the opportunities to maximise the generous tax relief as well as consider some of the restrictions introduced for claiming them.

The webinar will cover the new 100% full expensing for trading companies.

In addition, there will be a recap on the significant changes to the capital allowances regime since April 2014 in relation to buying and selling commercial properties. Without clear and practical advice at an early stage of a transaction, allowances could now either be under claimed or permanently lost.

Aimed at property lawyers and tax advisers this webinar assumes a working knowledge of underlying capital allowances legislation.
