💡 March Questions & Answers

We’re regularly asked questions about tax-efficient saving, allowances and investment options, so this month we’re answering some of the most common ones.

In our article, we look at:
• Whether Premium Bonds are a tax-efficient way to save
• What to consider if you’ve used up your ISA allowance
• Whether a CITR savings account could be worthwhile

While some options can offer tax advantages, they don’t always suit everyone, and the right approach depends on your individual circumstances.

🚨 HMRC is stepping up investigations into high earners 🚨

HMRC has increased investigations into wealthy taxpayers by 60% in just one year – backed by £1.4bn of government funding and thousands of new compliance staff.

✔ Have offshore income, investments or property

…you are firmly on HMRC’s radar.

🔍 Over 17,700 investigations are currently ongoing, some lasting years, with HMRC recovering £3.7bn in unpaid tax in a single year.

📩 Our December 2025 newsletter breaks this down, explaining:
• Who HMRC is targeting
• Why investigations are rising
• What this means for high-net-worth individuals
• How to stay compliant and protected
