Decision time for me - I need to work out whether to give 10% shareholding in my Ltd Co to the STBex.
Accountant advises that a minority shareholding should not raise eyebrows with HRMC, as STBex is not working giving approx 10% would keep her within her tax free allowance though some benefits would be affected. As a Higher Rate Tax Payer I would save tax.
Downside seems to be is that I would never get that 10% back so the liability remains forever, well at least until Ltd Co is closed down.
Any helpful advise from out there?
