A new article by Ken Maxwell, Director at John Lamb Hill Oldridge, has been published in Professional Adviser, addressing a key consideration in inheritance tax planning: who should make the gift?

It highlights the importance of taking a holistic view of the family balance sheet to achieve more efficient long-term planning outcomes.
