Labour's uncharitable gift

Article Abstract:

Changes to United Kingdom tax regulations in summer 1997 include the end of dividend tax credits, and this could affect the investment income of charities. Funds can move into equities with higher yields in order to boost their income, but this could affect returns as a whole. Dividend tax credits cannot be reclaimed by all collective investments and this affects which investment type is appropriate for charities. Asset allocation policy may have to be reassessed by trustees in the light of this change.
