Webinar details
With a large parliamentary majority and an election campaign which was won on the promise of change, Chancellor Rachel Reeves’s first Budget is the subject of much speculation. With the Prime Minister having spent the summer preparing the ground for unpopular taxation decisions, there is potential for legislative changes affecting business owners, large corporates, and entrepreneurs.
We’ve assembled a team of tax experts to discuss how you could take advantage of beneficial changes and mitigate the impact of others. Register now for our expert panel event with live Q & A, where we discuss the most important announcements, and answer any questions you may have about their impact for you and your business.
