About McArthur White Financial Consultants
Inheritance Tax Planning
For most people, tax is a fact of life. It is, of course,
also a fact of death. Most of us would like to know that when we die our money and our possessions will pass to people we care about.

The first £325,000* (2009 / 2010) of an individual's estate is taxed at 0% and is therefore not liable to Inheritance Tax. For married couples and registered civil partners it is currently £650,000, where the full allowance has been passed to the surviving spouse. Anything in excess of this amount is taxed at 40%.

At McArthur White Financial Consultants there are a number of options available, depending on your time of life and indeed your circumstances. We can help you to plan your Inheritance Tax strategy or utilise a suitable option to create wealth for generations to come.
