Once a qualifying investment has been made there are several actions, known as 바카라 사이트˜potentially chargeable events바카라 사이트™,Ìýwhich can cause the relief to be lost,Ìýunless the foreign income or gainsÌýare taken back offshore or used to make another qualifying investment within a specified time; these are known as 바카라 사이트˜mitigation ²õ³Ù±ð±è²õ바카라 사이트™.
