CHAPTER 5EU.K.Disguised investment management fees
809EZADisguised investment management fees: charge to income tax

(1)Where one or more disguised fees arise to an individual in a tax year from one or more investment schemes (whether or not by virtue of the same arrangements), the individual is liable for income tax for the tax year in respect of the disguised fee or fees as if—

(a)the individual were carrying on a trade for the tax year,

(b)the disguised fee or fees were the profits of the trade of the tax year, and

(c)the individual were the person receiving or entitled to those profits.

(2)For the purposes of subsection (1) the trade is treated as carried on—

(a)in the United Kingdom, to the extent that the individual performs the relevant services in the United Kingdom;

(b)outside the United Kingdom, to the extent that the individual performs the relevant services outside the United Kingdom;

and for this purpose “the relevant services” means the investment management services by virtue of which the disguised fee or fees arise to the individual in the tax year.

(3)For the purposes of this Chapter a “disguised fee” arises to an individual in a tax year from an investment scheme if—

(a)the individual performs investment management services directly or indirectly in respect of the scheme under any arrangements,

(b)the arrangements involve at least one partnership,

(c)under the arrangements, a management fee arises to the individual directly or indirectly from the scheme in the tax year (see section 809EZB), and

(d)some or all of the management fee is untaxed;

and the amount of the disguised fee is so much of the management fee as is untaxed.

(4)For the purposes of subsection (3) the management fee is “untaxed” if and to the extent that the fee would not (apart from this section)—

(a)be charged to tax under ITEPA 2003 as employment income of the individual for any tax year, or

(b)be brought into account in calculating the profits of a trade of the individual for the purposes of income tax for any tax year.

(5)In subsection (4) “trade” includes profession or vocation.

(6)In this Chapter “investment scheme” means—

(a)a collective investment scheme, or

(b)an investment trust.

809EZBMeaning of “management fee” in section 809EZA

(1)Subject as follows, for the purposes of section 809EZA “management fee” means any sum (including a sum in the form of a loan or advance or an allocation of profits) except so far as the sum constitutes—

(a)a repayment (in whole or part) of an investment made directly or indirectly by the individual in the scheme,

(b)an arm's length return on an investment made directly or indirectly by the individual in the scheme, or

(c)carried interest (see sections 809EZC and 809EZD).

(2)For the purposes of subsection (1)(b) a return on an investment is “an arm's length return” if—

(a)the return is on an investment which is of the same kind as investments in the scheme made by external investors,

(b)the return on the investment is reasonably comparable to the return to external investors on those investments, and

(c)the terms governing the return on the investment are reasonably comparable to the terms governing the return to external investors on those investments.

(3)In this Chapter “sum” includes any money or money's worth (and other expressions are to be construed accordingly).

(4)Where—

(a)a sum in the form of money's worth arises to the individual from the scheme in the ordinary course of the scheme's business, and

(b)the individual gives the scheme money in exchange for the sum,

the sum constitutes a “management fee” only to the extent that its market value at the time it arises exceeds the amount of the money given by the individual.

809EZCMeaning of “carried interest” in section 809EZB

(1)For the purposes of section 809EZB “carried interest” means a sum which arises to the individual under the arrangements by way of profit-related return.

This is subject to subsections (3) to (8) (sums where no significant risk of not arising); and see also section 809EZD (sums treated as carried interest).

(2)A sum which arises to the individual under the arrangements does so by way of “profit-related return” if under the arrangements—

(a)the sum is to, or may, arise only if—

(i)there are profits for a period on the investments, or on particular investments, made for the purposes of the scheme, or

(ii)there are profits arising from a disposal of the investments, or of particular investments, made for those purposes,

(b)the amount of the sum which is to, or may, arise is variable, to a substantial extent, by reference to those profits, and

(c)returns to external investors are also determined by reference to those profits;

but where any part of the sum does not meet these conditions, that part is not to be regarded as arising by way of “profit-related return”.

(3)Where—

(a)one or more sums (“actual sums”) arise to the individual under the arrangements by way of profit-related return in a tax year, and

(b)there was no significant risk that a sum of at least a certain amount (“the minimum amount”) would not arise to the individual,

so much of the actual sum, or of the aggregate of the actual sums, as is equal to the minimum amount is not “carried interest”.

(See subsections (7) and (8) as to how the minimum amount is to be apportioned between the actual sums where more than one actual sum arises in the tax year.)

(4)For the purposes of subsection (3)(b) assess the risk both—

(a)in relation to each actual sum (and the investments to which it relates) individually, taking into account also any other sums that might have arisen to the individual under the arrangements instead of that sum, and

(b)in relation to the actual sum or sums and any other sums that might have arisen to the individual under the arrangements by way of profit-related return in the tax year (and the investments to which all those sums relate) taken as a whole;

(so that, in a particular case, some of the minimum amount may arise by assessing the risk in accordance with paragraph (a) and some by assessing it in accordance with paragraph (b)).

(5)For the purposes of subsection (3)(b) assess the risk as at the latest of—

(a)the time when the individual becomes party to the arrangements,

(b)the time when the individual begins to perform investment management services directly or indirectly in respect of the scheme under the arrangements, and

(c)the time when a material change is made to the arrangements so far as relating to the sums which are to, or may, arise to the individual.

(6)For the purposes of subsection (3)(b) ignore any risk that a sum is prevented from arising to the individual (by reason of insolvency or otherwise).

(7)Where more than one actual sum arises in the tax year, the minimum amount is to be apportioned between the actual sums as follows for the purposes of subsection (3)—

(a)so much of the minimum amount as is attributable to a particular actual sum is to be apportioned to that actual sum, and

(b)so much of the minimum amount as is not attributable to any particular actual sum is to be apportioned between the actual sums on a just and reasonable basis.

(8)For the purpose of subsection (7) any part of the minimum amount is attributable to a particular actual sum to the extent that there was no significant risk that that part would not arise to the individual in relation to that actual sum, assessing the risk in accordance with subsection (4)(a).

809EZDSums treated as “carried interest” for purposes of section 809EZB

(1)A sum falling within subsection (2) or (3)—

(a)is to be assumed to meet the requirements of section 809EZC, and

(b)accordingly, is to be treated as constituting “carried interest” for the purposes of section 809EZB.

(2)A sum falls within this subsection if, under the arrangements, it is to, or may, arise to the individual out of profits on the investments made for the purposes of the scheme, but only after—

(a)all, or substantially all, of the investments in the scheme made by the participants have been repaid to the participants, and

(b)each external investor has received a preferred return on all, or substantially all, of the investor's investments in the scheme.

(3)A sum falls within this subsection if, under the arrangements, it is to, or may, arise to the individual out of profits on a particular investment made for the purposes of the scheme, but only after—

(a)all, or substantially all, of the relevant investments made by participants have been repaid to those participants, and

(b)each of those participants who is an external investor has received a preferred return on all, or substantially all, of the investor's relevant investments;

and for this purpose “relevant investments” means those investments in the scheme to which the particular investment made for the purposes of the scheme is attributable.

(4)In this section “preferred return” means a return of not less than the amount that would be payable on the investment by way of interest if—

(a)compound interest were payable on the investment for the whole of the period during which it was invested in the scheme, and

(b)the interest were calculated at a rate of 6% per annum, with annual rests.

Mae deddfwriaeth ar gael mewn fersiynau gwahanol:

Y Diweddaraf sydd Ar Gael (diwygiedig):Y fersiwn ddiweddaraf sydd ar gael o’r ddeddfwriaeth yn cynnwys newidiadau a wnaed gan ddeddfwriaeth ddilynol ac wedi eu gweithredu gan ein tîm golygyddol. Gellir gweld y newidiadau nad ydym wedi eu gweithredu i’r testun eto yn yr ardal ‘Newidiadau i Ddeddfwriaeth’.

Gwreiddiol (Fel y’i Deddfwyd neu y’i Gwnaed): Mae'r wreiddiol fersiwn y ddeddfwriaeth fel ag yr oedd pan gafodd ei deddfu neu eu gwneud. Ni wnaed unrhyw newidiadau i’r testun.

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.

Llinell Amser Newidiadau

This timeline shows the different points in time where a change occurred. The dates will coincide with the earliest date on which the change (e.g an insertion, a repeal or a substitution) that was applied came into force. The first date in the timeline will usually be the earliest date when the provision came into force. In some cases the first date is 01/02/1991 (or for Northern Ireland legislation 01/01/2006). This date is our basedate. No versions before this date are available. For further information see the Editorial Practice Guide and Glossary under Help.
