New tax guide now available from Zurich

Zurich, in conjunction with Pearson Education, launches the latest edition of its annual Tax Handbook.

Fully revised and updated for 2008/9, the new guide offers financial advisers and their clients a single source of reference for all aspects of tax planning.

This latest edition provides advisers with an in-depth understanding of the UK tax landscape and helps ensure advisers are well equipped to advise their clients on tax issues.

Published in conjunction with Pearson Education, the new handbook provides detailed information on many aspects of tax planning including self employment, trusts, inheritance tax, capital gains tax and VAT amongst others. Advisers and their clients can also benefit from practical advice on self-assessment, pension planning, stamp duty and property investment.

As well as reference information, the book also contains tips on how to plan effectively for wealth preservation, whilst mitigating and reducing tax liabilities. In addition, the book provides advisers and their clients with detailed information on taxation arrangements for small businesses.

Paul Wright, Zurich UK Life's Investment Management Director said, "Taxation is a complex area and one which people often fail to address in sufficient detail. This latest edition of the Zurich Tax Handbook is designed to simplify the subject, helping advisers and their clients understand the UK tax system and make tax savings where possible. We believe the guide will prove a popular source of reference for advisers and their clients as well as other finance professionals."

Readers can also access the latest revisions online and receive email notification of updates for the first time this year, allowing advisers and their clients to stay informed of any key changes that occur between Budgets.

Usually priced at £32.99, Zurich is currently offering readers a special price of just £20.99. Copies can be ordered online from pearson-books.com/zurichpr
