Prevent future problems with proactive advice now
Problems and solutions when applying the small business CGT concessions
The potential impact on losses and pre-CGT assets

A Live Instructor Led Webinar

There are a range of commercial reasons why clients might want to utilise different share classes within their companies. For example, different share classes can provide a level of flexibility that might otherwise be difficult to achieve. However, clients often don’t appreciate the impact that using different share classes can have on the tax outcome at both the company and shareholder level.

In the Companies with Different Share Classes webinar, we explore the problems that can arise when a company has different classes of shares. Regardless of whether you have inherited a company client that already has different share classes or you have a client who is looking to introduce different classes of shares, it is crucial to be aware of the impact this can have from a tax perspective.
