Can I shield my ISAs from inheritance tax?

4 days ago | moneyweek.com | Ruth Emery

ISAs are one of the most popular savings and investment products – and inheritance tax (IHT) is one of the most hated taxes. So, a natural question posed by many ISA customers is whether it’s possible to protect ISAs from the dreaded inheritance tax, and pass these tax-efficient vehicles onto loved ones without the taxman taking a bite out of them. The question has perhaps become more pertinent given that pension pots, currently exempt from IHT, will be liable for the tax from April 2027.
How British businesses can tackle Trump's tariffs

6 days ago | moneyweek.com | David Prosser

At first sight, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the UK may appear to be less vulnerable to the trade tariffs president Donald Trump has unveiled in recent weeks. Smaller firms tend to be more focused on domestic sales. These won’t be affected by the 10% tariff that the US has now imposed on imports from the UK. However, SMEs should not be complacent. The majority of British businesses are likely to take a hit from the chaos caused by Trump’s efforts to reorder global trade.

It seems like the sky is the limit for Rory McIlroy, who has just added another major title to his list of accolades by winning the coveted green jacket at the Masters. This concludes the professional golfer’s first Career Grand Slam – having tasted victories at the US Open, the PGA Championship, the Open Championship, and now the Masters, solidifying the Irishman’s name among golf elites.

Trump wants to colonise Mars - will it happen?

1 week ago | moneyweek.com | Simon Wilson

Is it possible to colonise Mars? In 1964, Nasa’s uncrewed Mariner 4 spacecraft made its first successful fly-by of Mars. Then, in July 1976, a craft (Viking 1) made the first successful landing on its surface. In the half-century since, many similar missions have been accomplished, and some have failed. But as yet, no crewed mission has been attempted. Various visionaries have long wanted to change that. The late Stephen Hawking is one. SpaceX’s Elon Musk famously has Mars in his sights.

It has decided to postpone its flotation. It was due to launch a marketing campaign for the listing on the New York Stock Exchange, where it has been targeting a valuation of $15 billion – over double the $6.7 billion it was worth in 2022.

As during the pandemic, ultra-efficient global supply chains are being disrupted, raising inflationary pressure.
