Update on Disguised Remuneration
The publication of the UK Finance Bill has revealed significant changes to the disguised remuneration proposal when compared with the first draft of the legislation released on December 9, 2010. For the most part, the changes contained in the Finance Bill give effect to carve-outs. While these carve-outs are welcomed, the scope of the legislation has also been widened in a number of respects and there are still many grey areas.
