Labour Hint Of Wealth Tax, Higher Inheritance and Capital Gains Taxes In “Painful” October Budget

 

Prime Minister Sir Kier Starmer and Chancellor Rachel Reeves say “thing will get worse”, and refuse to rule out a “painful” October Budget.

 

Concerns over potential tax hikes, as the Labour Party hints at plans to raise Inheritance Tax (IHT), Capital Gains Tax (CGT), and even introduce a wealth tax, are already causing an exodus of the rich.

The prospect of higher taxes under a Labour government is causing unease among property owners and investors alike.

 

Inheritance Tax is a particular area of concern, as Labour has suggested that the current threshold could be lowered, increasing the tax burden on estates. Currently, IHT is levied at 40% on estates worth over £325,000, but this could change, leading to more families being caught in the tax net.

 

Capital Gains Tax is also on Labour’s radar, with proposals to align CGT rates more closely with income tax rates. This could see higher earners paying significantly more on profits from property sales, stocks, and other investments.

 

Additionally, Labour’s discussions around a potential wealth tax are causing further anxiety. Such a tax would target the richest individuals, potentially impacting those with significant property holdings, investments, and savings.

 

As the political landscape evolves, investors and property owners are advised to stay informed and consider their options carefully. Whether you're thinking of selling, buying, or holding onto your assets, understanding how these potential tax changes could affect you is crucial.
