Partner James Cook has been quoted in an article from Financial Times uncovering the potential impacts of the Autumn Statement 2023 and fiscal drag. The article delves into cuts to National Insurance (NIC), changes to ISAs and pensions as well as the Chancellor’s silence on Inheritance Tax (IHT). 

While house values have taken a bit of a hit in the last year or so, overall growth since 2008/9 may well mean many more households will find themselves snared by IHT in the coming years – which could soon change the perception of IHT being a wealth tax in all but name
