In summary
The fallout from failed tax saving arrangements using Employee Benefit Trusts (“EBTs”) continues. In Hunt, directors who in reliance on tax advice from a firm of accountants, arranged for a company to use an EBT, were found not in breach of duty. The decision whilst of comfort to directors, increases the likelihood of recovery actions following failed tax saving schemes shifting back on the accountancy firm tax advisors.
