This week partners at A4G Caroline Ward and Chris Newman discuss financial trading and investing. Whether you're new to trading or have been trading for years, they'll be something for you to takeaway.
We’ve been acting for traders for over 25 years and receive an influx of questions every day on the difference between trading and investing and how income is taxed for each, whether you need to declare to HMRC if you’re spreadbetting, what expenses you can claim, how to best keep your accounting records to make tax efficiencies and so much more.

Josh joins Charlotte to talk about the recent announcement of a hike in dividend and national insurance taxes and what exactly that means for you and your business. You’ll learn what the tax rises are and our commentary, how they may affect you, your business and your employees and what you need to do. We also touch furlough (which is ending 30 September!) and what options you have if you still have employees on furlough, such as how to reduce your employees hours, making redundancies and managing your cash flow. We’ll be sharing more on the tax rises and how to manage beyond furlough on our knowledge hub on our website – https://www.a4g-llp.co.uk/coronavirus-business-advice-hub ...
