CG44100 - Targeted rules to prevent income to capital converter schemes by companies - general

Anti-avoidance provisions in FA 2006 (called Targeted Anti-Avoidance rules, or 바카라 사이트TAARs바카라 사이트 for short) included a measure to counter the conversion of income streams into capital gains, and the creation of a capital gain 바카라 사이트matched바카라 사이트 by an income deduction, where the gains are then wholly or partly franked by capital losses.

The legislation was announced in the Chancellor바카라 사이트s Pre Budget Report (바카라 사이트PBR바카라 사이트) on 5 December 2005 and is effective from that date.

A statement of principles, draft guidance document and draft legislation were published at PBR. The statement of principles, on which the legislation was based, and final version of the published guidance document can be found at appendix 8.

The intent of this TAAR is to apply the third of the principles set out in the HMRC statement of 5 December 2005, that relief for capital losses should only be available against capital gains, not income profits.

The legislation was amended slightly by FB14/S63 to put beyond doubt that the TAAR applies whatever the computational process that is used to determine the income figure. Contact Capital Gains Technical Group if it is suggested that this change is relevant to a particular case.
