We also support family business in their succession planning – which ultimately is the bridge many successful family run business’ will have to consider crossing.

A recent report* co-produced by Oxford Economics and The Institute for Family Business finds that H M Revenue & Customs Inland Revenue tax system is penalising family run business’ and presents the following facts and statistics for our consideration:

Two thirds (2/3) of all UK private-sector firms are family owned.

(The above) Private-sector firms employ 9.2 million people or (40%) of all private sector jobs.

Family business generated £1.1 trillion and paid £82Bn (eighty two billion pounds) in taxes in the last tax year 2010/2011 – which equates with 14% of annual Government revenue.

The current tax system penalises entrepreneurial family business.

200, 000 new jobs could be created if Inland Revenue employment rules were relaxed.
