[F2 444AECAParts of transfer scheme arrangements: anti-avoidance rule U.K.

(1) This section applies where—

(a) as a result of any part of transfer scheme arrangements involving the transfer of long-term business from one person (“the transferor”) to another (“the transferee”) a Case I advantage is obtained by the transferor or the transferee (or by both), and

(b) the sole or main purpose, or one of the main purposes, of that part of the transfer scheme arrangements is the obtaining of that Case I advantage.

(2) In subsection (1) above “transfer scheme arrangements” has the same meaning as in section 444AEA.

(3) If a Case I advantage is obtained by the transferor (see subsection (1) of section 444AECB), the amount of the transferor's Case I advantage (see subsection (3) of that section) is to be taken into account as an increase in value of the assets of the long-term insurance fund of the transferor—

(a) to the extent that the advantage is obtained by the transferor in the period of account covering the transfer date or any earlier period of account—

(i) for the period of account of the transferor ending (or treated as ending) immediately before the transfer date, or

(ii) where there is no such period, for the period of account of the transferor including the transfer date, and

(b) to the extent that the advantage is obtained by the transferor in any later period of account of the transferor in which any relevant associated operations are effected, for that later period of account.

(4) If a Case I advantage is obtained by the transferee (see subsection (1) of section 444AECC), the amount of the transferee's Case I advantage (see subsection (2) of that section) is to be taken into account as an increase in value of the assets of the long-term insurance fund of the transferee for the period of account of the transferee in which the advantage is obtained by the transferee.

(5) See section 444AA for the meaning of “the transfer date”, and section 444AEA for the meaning of “relevant associated operations”, in this section.]
