Legislative changes in recent years have meant that existing arrangements for estate planning have had to be reviewed and new techniques applied. This user-friendly book can be readily understood, whether by an individual who wishes to control who benefits from their estate, or a professional adviser. It is an easy and straightforward means towards understanding the principles of capital taxation on personal business and family wealth and how, by careful planning, its impact can be legally mitigated. New to the revised edition: * Completely revised to include FA 2001 changes to Taper Relief and IHT changes * New chapters on: Administration of Estates (including Trustee Act 2000); CGT -- Enterprise and Venture Capital Incentives; Life Assurance and Pension Schemes * Cross-reference to case law decisions * Cross-reference to Inland Revenue's IHT Newsletter, Tax Bulletin, Statements of Practice and Extra-Statutory Concessions * More practical examples * Checklist of planning points at the end of each chapter * Things to do before 6 April 2002 (or better still before the 2002 Budget)
