I think if it’s possible we are even busier than usual for this time of year. You will have noticed we took a different approach in January to bring you individual detailed coverage in separate reports for SEIS, EIS, VCT and BR/IHT authored by our friend and colleague Tony Catt. These will be combined in our annual Tax Efficiency Research Report which will be published in a couple of weeks time.
We hope you found this useful and are enjoying the insights, particularly topical and timely as they are in the lead up to tax year end. It seemed like we blinked, and January was over.
