Course Details

As part of the October 2024 Budget, the new Labour Government issued a ‘Corporate Tax Roadmap’ setting out its plans for corporate taxation over the next five years. The roadmap is meant to provide stability, enabling businesses to plan ahead and thus hopefully increase investment. So, what does the roadmap say, what does it mean… and, perhaps more importantly, what doesn’t it say?

 

In this course Carl Bayley covers the following topics:

  • Corporation Tax rates – what can we expect?
  • Marginal rate tax planning opportunities
  • Capital expenditure – how to maximise the available reliefs
  • Planning for increasing tax-driven employment costs
  • The gaps in the roadmap – what else might we see and how can we plan for it?

Carl Bayley

Carl Bayley is the author of a series of ‘Plain English’ tax guides designed specifically for the layperson and the non-specialist (available from www.taxcafe.co.uk). His particular speciality is his ability to take the weird, complex world of taxation and set it out in the kind of clear, straightforward language taxpayers themselves can understand. Carl takes the same approach when speaking on taxation, a role he frequently undertakes with great enthusiasm, including his highly acclaimed annual ‘Budget Breakfast’. He has spoken on taxation on radio and television, including the BBC’s ‘It’s Your Money’ programme and BBC Radio 2’s Jeremy Vine Show.

Carl is a past chairman of the Tax Faculty of the ICAEW and former member of the institute’s governing Council and Board. Aside from his tax books, Carl is an avid creative writer and is looking forward to the publication of his first novel, Trinity of Souls, in January 2024. When he isn’t working, he takes on the equally taxing challenges of hill walking and horse riding: his Munro tally is now 106 and, while he remains a novice rider, his progress is cantering along nicely.

Carl lives in the Scottish Borders, where he enjoys spending time with his partner Linda. He has three children, and his first grandchild arrived in April 2021
