Finance Act 2013

Summary

1.Section 175 provides for an amendment to existing legislation which will allow trustees to switch UK assets held in settlement made by non-UK domiciled individuals to investments in Open Ended Investment Companies (OEICs) and Authorised Unit Trusts (AUTs) without incurring inheritance tax. The changes made by this section will have retroactive effect so that no tax will have arisen in those trusts which already held AUTs or OEICs when changes introduced in section 186 to Finance Act (FA) 2003 came into effect. Nor will any tax have arisen in those trusts where UK assets were invested in OEICs and AUTs since the coming into effect of FA 2003.
