HM 58: Transition of rate for certain investors

You could also call this:

“Changes to tax rates for certain investment fund holders from October 2010”

If you have money invested in a multi-rate PIE (a type of investment fund) on 30 September 2010, this law explains how your tax rate will change from 1 October 2010. If your old rate was 12.5%, it will become 10.5%. If it was 19.5% or 21%, it will change to 17.5%. If it was 30%, it will change to 28%. However, you can tell the PIE if you want a different rate instead. These changes happen automatically unless you say otherwise.
