SUMMARY:Should the UK have a wealth tax?
DESCRIPTION:Opinion polls suggest considerable public support for higher taxes on the rich. But would a wealth tax really be an effective way to improve the UK’s public finances? If so\, would it be best implemented as an annual charge on the value of assets or a one-off? And how should its implementation be aligned with existing taxes on wealth\, such as income tax\, council tax\, capital gains tax amend inheritance tax. This panel will bring together public finance experts and politicians to discuss the potential impact of this economic policy idea. \nSpeakers will be announced soon. \n– \nTickets are available upon request. If you are interested in attending this session\, contact us here and we will be in touch nearer to the event. \nArtwork by Alys Jones Illustration.
