List of UK Property Rich funds under Friends Provident International

07 September 2020

This communication relates to the change in UK tax legislation that took effect from 6 April 2019 and which applies to non-residents holding interests in UK Property Rich Collective Investments Vehicles (CIV's). Please note:

The following information is intended for advisers with clients who are policy/plan owners and have exposure to funds considered to be 'UK Property Rich'.

  • A list of those funds is provided below. This list reflects funds which are held by Friends Provident International policy/plan owners only.
  • If your client has an investment with another company, they may be linked to different funds which are also affected.
  • Where a policy/plan is not linked to any of the funds below, no further action is required in respect of the Friends Provident International policy/plan.

 

Background
Over the last few years, the UK government has introduced new legislation to equalise the tax treatment of UK and non-UK residents where there is a disposal of residential/non-residential property and land within its borders.

From 6 April 2019, legislation extended Capital Gains Tax to disposals of UK property where it is held within a CIV and the investor is a non-UK resident.

Impact
As a non-UK resident company, this legislation applies to Friends Provident International as the underlying investments held in our products are legally owned by us and not the policy/plan owner.

How does this affect policy/plan owners?
When a 'UK Property Rich' CIV is sold or transferred out of a policy/plan, any gain on the CIV since 6 April 2019 (or the CIV purchase date if after 6 April 2019), may be subject to UK Corporation Tax, which is currently charged at a rate of 19%.

Friends Provident International would be liable for any tax and reserve the right to pass that cost onto policy/plan owners who realised a gain. Market conditions have meant that to date, it hasn't been necessary to do this.

What next?
Throughout 2019/early 2020, like other businesses we partnered with a number of industry bodies to lobby HMRC/HM Treasury for an exemption or at the very least, changes to the legislation. Unfortunately, it appears that no changes are likely in the short term and so the administrative complexities for us as a business, and the potential for double taxation on our policy/plan owners, remains unchanged.

To date, we have allowed policy/plan owners to remain invested in this particular sector, however, we must now ask that all positions are sold as soon as possible and by 30 November 2020 at the latest. We appreciate that at this time many of the funds affected are suspended so positions cannot be liquidated. In such circumstances, we ask that redemptions are placed as and when possible.

Just to clarify, where policy/plan owners have no exposure to the funds listed, no further action is required.

If you have any queries in relation to this matter, please contact TechnicalInvestments@fpiom.com.
