Stuart Welch, CEO, TD Direct Investing welcomes new HMRC legislation that removes capital gains tax burden from investors switching to clean funds: "The passing of amendments to HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) legislation last week, means that investors wishing to move from bundled share classes to rebate-free or clean' share classes will be able to do so without incurring capital gains tax (CGT) at the time of switching. "Under the old rules, depending on how a fund was constructed, investors were liable for CGT when they switched share classes. Not only does this new legislation remove that liability, it simplifies things for investors. HMRC are clearly trying to make switching to clean share classes easier, which is welcome news, particularly given people were recently hit by the announcement that rebates on trail bearing funds would be subject to income tax. "TD has led the way in making clean funds available to DIY investors and in calling on other providers to follow suit, before any requirement to do so by the FCA. The reality is clean funds are better for investors and we are pleased that moves like this make it easier for them to switch to clean share classes. "We already have 1500 clean funds on our platform and we continue to urge fund managers to make more available. Once we are certain our clients can access the most popular funds in clean form it is our intention to stop selling trail bearing funds in the near future.""
Claire Peate, customer insight manager at Gocompare.com, said: "The high school prom is an American tradition which has really taken off in the UK in the last few years. Peer pressure can lead to teenagers wanting to spend hundreds of pounds on looking their best and arriving in style, but nearly a third of their parents say the prom is a strain on already stretched family finances. "Parents should consider agreeing a budget with their child from the start so that spending doesn't get out of control, and they could also encourage youngsters to meet at least some of the expense themselves. A pre-prom hair and make-up party for the girls could be fun and may save on paying professionals, and prom kings and queens could consider more imaginative ways of travelling to the prom rather than insisting on hiring an expensive stretch-limo.""
Darren Foulds, Director Barclays Mobile and Pingit at Barclays, commented: "When you're stuck in a muddy field, haven't showered for two days and you're dancing away to your favourite band - the last thing you want to worry about is running short of money. With our free Pingit app all you need is a 3G connection and the person's phone number, then you can settle up instantly and not let awkward cash conversations spoil your fun." Barclays Financial Festival Survival Guide
...The competition deadline is 31st June and entry details are available on Photoworld's competition page. A spokesperson for Photoworld commented: "We are delighted to announce the launch of our Spring into Action competition which will provide three lucky photographers with a fantastic prize. Therefore, we are encouraging people across the UK to enter soon to avoid disappointment."
