Does anyone know of any sites detailing ways of avoiding tax on investments

Is it true that starting an investment company to hold shares can deliver significant savings?

There are some straightforward ways of saving on CGT,
not mentioned above:-

- investments in AIM/OFEX companies are for CGT classed as unquoted
and attract CGT relief on gains of 50% after 1 year 75% after 2 years.

- a basic rate taxpayer with a large capital gain can occasionally do
some 'dividend washing', for example Tellings Golden Miller (TGM) is
shortly to give back investors 60p a share in the form of a special
dividend.....shares can be currently bought at about 1.15....when they
go xd the shares will fall by the 60p (approx) and a capital loss can
be established to offset other gains wehilst keeping the tax free div.

paragon,

how is that dividend "tax free"?

He means tax free in the sense that, the person is a basic rate taxpayer, hence no further tax liability on the dividend received.

Move to Holland. No CGT and cheap drugs and beautiful girls.
