Finance Act 2014

Summary

1.These sections introduce two amendments to the Controlled Foreign Companies (CFC) regime at Part 9A of the Taxation (International and Other Provisions) Act 2010 (TIOPA).  Both amendments are to Chapter 9 of Part 9A.

2.The first section prevents a CFC’s non-trading finance profits benefiting from the partial or full exemption under Chapter 9 if they are connected with an arrangement that has a main purpose of artificially diverting into a CFC non-trading finance profits that are currently received by a UK resident company.

3.The second section closes a loophole in an existing rule under Chapter 9 that prevents a creditor relationship of a CFC benefitting from partial or full exemption when third party debt of a non-UK resident group company is repaid and effectively replaced with new UK debt.

4.The amendments have effect from 5 December 2013.
