Will Your Business Survive You? IHT Reform Could Threaten Its Future
The upcoming IHT reforms are not just about tax- they’re about the future of your business. From April 2026, the government will limit full BPR to the first £1 million of business assets
For many SMEs, this could mean a crippling tax liability on death.
This change could:
- Force the sale of shares to pay tax.
- Disrupt leadership succession.
- Undermine investor confidence.
- Threaten the business’s ability to operate.
At Burgis & Bullock, we’ve seen how unplanned tax liabilities can destabilise even the most successful businesses. The solution? Proactive planning.
Start here:
- Get a current valuation of your business.
- Identify how much of your estate could be exposed.
- Work with advisers to structure your estate for resilience.
Don’t let tax reform derail your business’s future. Take control now – before the rules change.
