Specialist course on relevant VAT rules

The financial services sector is wide and varied. It ranges from the Independent Financial Adviser to the major institutions. They all have to deal with this particularly complex area of VAT accurately, which is also subject to frequent change. This course examines the detail of VAT in the sector, for both primary providers and intermediaries (including partial exemption) and examines current problem areas. Updates on the progress of the numerous recent court cases in this area are included.

UK legislation is driven by EU legislation, but it is often at odds with it. How UK legislation will unwind itself from EU legislation following Brexit is still unclear, but this course will be kept live to deal with updates as they happen.
