E-bulletin - June 2009
Welcome to the June/July issue of our Ebulletin.
In this issue we look at a number of steps you can take to shore up your business so that you are in a strong position to weather the adverse trading climate on most markets. By keeping a close eye on tax reliefs and current regulations, you can ensure that your business will retain a healthy outlook.
Company directors are required to produce financial statements which prove that the business is a Going Concern. We explain some of the key factors involved in this process.
Making the most of tax breaks when buying a property is another area we put under the spotlight and we reveal some of the opportunities that can be overlooked.
We also have a timely reminder of The Golden Rules of Credit Control. It is essential to enforce a robust policy at a time when many businesses may use the downturn as an excuse for late payment.
On the personal finance front, we suggest you review any Inheritance Tax (IHT) arrangements that include a survivorship clause. This could result in a much greater and unexpected tax liability and we advise you on how to avoid this.
Finally, we update you on the new FSA regulations affecting financial advisers and
question whether you are currently getting value for money and good service.
At the end of each article we have provided the contact details of a qualified expert in each area. If you have any questions or concerns, do get in touch.
