Course description

The taxation of corporate transactions is complex but, if properly understood, can ensure that transactions are not encumbered by unwarranted tax liabilities. This in-person comprehensive guide will take you through the tax rules for company reorganisations, mergers and demergers and other forms of corporate and group reconstructions and demonstrate how they work in practical situations.


Presented by leading trainer Pete Miller, the topics discussed will include reorganisations of share capital, bonus and rights issues, share-for-share and share-for-debenture exchanges, qualifying and non-qualifying corporate bonds, management buy-outs, schemes of reconstruction, degrouping rules, demerger mechanisms (liquidations, exempt distributions, and reductions of capital), and other aspects such as SDLT issues and HMRC clearances.
