Quite a job to avoid duty
Article Abstract:
Undertaking corporate acquisitions can be a lengthy and complex procedure. Companies which plan to buy a property from another company may decide make a corporate acquisition and purchase the whole company. Some companies use corporate acquisitions in order to avoid paying stamp duty. The rate of tax applied to the transfer of shares is at 0.5% but purchasing property worth more than 500,000 pounds sterling costs 3.5% in stamp duty. Companies making a corporate acquisition should be aware of taking on hidden liabilities within another firm whereas buying property is more straightforward.
