Introduction to the corporate roll-over relief provisions
The corporate roll-over relief provisions were introduced alongside the implementation of capital gains tax in 2001. These provisions allow roll-over relief in respect of tax arising on capital gains and recoupments that would otherwise result from asset disposals.
These provisions are useful for corporate restructures, divestitures, mergers and acquisitions, carve-outs, and incorporating businesses owned by individuals or trusts. In the modern business world in which advisors operate, it is impossible to advise clients on transactions without a comprehensive understanding of these provisions.
