AIM IHT Portfolio Service

Please note: Following the recent Autumn Budget, Business Property Relief legislation and the associated tax treatment on AIM shares, has been amended.

We are currently considering the implications of the Budget on Alpha’s AIM IHT Service. We will update our website and literature in due course.

A research based solution

Alpha’s AIM IHT Portfolio Service is an award winning discretionary investment service that seeks to reduce a client’s potential exposure to inheritance tax on death. This can be achieved through the construction of an investment portfolio of shares traded on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM), which have been held for a two-year qualifying period.

Available to private individuals who are looking to take advantage of Business Relief or Business Property Relief (BPR) for Inheritance Tax (IHT) purposes.

The value of AIM quoted shares, and the income derived from them, may go down as well as up and an investor may not recoup the full amount invested. The market price of AIM shares may be highly volatile and may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, certain of which may be outside the control of the companies issuing the securities. Information concerning taxation treatment is based on our understanding of current law and HMRC practice.

Please note, if you are considering investment in an AIM portfolio, please seek professional advice.
