What are the tax advantages of AIM shares?

Question

Thanks.

Answer 1

The primary benefits of the Alternative Investment Market are lower capital gains tax and preferential inheritance tax treatment, both a result of the shares' "unquoted" designation. Be aware, however, that there are also extra risks involved.

The London Stock Exchange has a page set up to help explain the tax benefits, and there are a couple other links below with articles that hit the high points. Good luck! :-)

Answer 2

What are "AIM"shares? I got over 2 million Google hits, way too much to figure out what you're asking about.
