What You Need to Know

The standard nil-rate band of £325,000 and the residence nil-rate band of £175,000 have been frozen until 2030, drawing more estates into the IHT net as property values rise. From April 2026, Business Relief is capped at £2.5 million per individual, changing the planning landscape for business owners significantly. Pension assets may also form part of taxable estates from 2027. Against this backdrop, structured lifetime planning using the annual £3,000 gift exemption, gifts from surplus income, potentially exempt transfers, and charitable giving has become more important than ever. We review your full estate picture and implement a plan that reduces your exposure without unnecessary complexity.
