Entrepreneurs' Relief... All Change!

Following the Budget, business owners will now pay 10% Entrepreneurs' Relief tax rate on lifetime gains of up to £1m, compared with the previous limit of £10m. Business owners who make any gains above £1m will now be charged standard capital gains tax rate, which is currently 20%.
