Educational Episode 2 : IHT and Succession Planning with Eilidh Adams

With so much change, legislative and otherwise, we’re continuing our series of educational episodes to bring insights, advice and awareness to support your families and businesses. In this series we’re looking at …

Key Takeaways you can expect from tuning in: -

• It can feel daunting to tackle succession planning and face the sometimes difficult conversations, and of course costs, involved, but early action secures your rural business for future generations.
• Inheritance Tax planning is a key component of any good succession plan.
• Rural businesses have traditionally benefited from a fairly benign Inheritance Tax system, but significant changes were announced to the main rural business reliefs in October 2024 which take effect from April this year. These changes mean early planning is now even more critical.

With a case study to bring this to life, this is a must listen for every rural business!

The Award Winning Women in Wellies Podcast is sponsored by Scottish Law firm, Gillespie Macandrew, advising on all areas of land & rural business, private client, energy and real estate.
